Die Another Day - resolution change

I don't understand whats going on here. I rip the corrrect (angle 2) of the movie with Smart-Ripper. Then I try to re-encode with CCE 6.62 and the resolution changes. Before CCE - 720x480 After CCE - 720x576 This has never happened before and I don't know what Im missing. What is going on here?

I basically use Trilight's method and what's weird is I've backed up at least 50 movies and this has never happened. Here are my basic steps: Rip with Smartripper as backup Use DVD2AVI/Force Film/Demux all Audio Use VFAPIConv to convert from index to virtual AVI Input AVI to CCE 6.62/DVD complient/No audio/Multipass VBR *this is where resolution changes to 720x576* Use Pulldown to prepare file for Maestro Use ChapterXTracter to get chapters Import to Maestro M2V and ac3, add chapters and so on I have tried using the index that DVD2AVI makes OR the one from Smartripper amd then CCE. BOTH times, after CCE the resolution is changed to 720x576!! I checked with Bitrate viewer the VOB or demuxed m2v and they are ok - 720x480, but AFTER CCE it changes to 720x576. I don't get this. I tried editing the m2v with DVDPatcher to force it to 720x480 but that just messes it up to not playback right on a settop player. Ideas please? This is very weird. Ash

Not sure if this fits in this forum but.... What does virtualdub say the resolution is of the virtual avi you create? -Nic
