To review the list of available formats, open the Video tab and choose the video format you want: AVI, MP4, FLV, MOV, WMV, and many more. You can either choose a preset with a predefined resolution, for example, MP4 H.264 - HD 720p or specify a different resolution later on.
To change the video size, click the cogwheel icon below the presets ribbon. Locate the Frame size drop-down list. Here, you can either choose one of the standard resolutions or select Custom and specify your desired resolution in the Width and Height boxes on the right. You may also want to choose a resize method from the drop-down list to optimally fit your video into the selected dimensions. Click OK to apply the changes.
Upconverting Dvd To 720p Dimensions
Confirm your output format and click Next. Choose your video quality (e.g., 720p or 480p) and click Next. Make any changes to the advanced options that you want and click Next.
Click the cogwheel icon to open the Advanced Options pop-up window. You can change the video screen size and aspect ratio. To select the video resolution, open the Video Screen Size drop-down list and choose the desired option. For example, to convert 720p to 1080p, select the 1920 1080p (1080p). If you want to set a custom resolution, select Custom from the list and type width and height in pixels.
The new players deliver the clarity and realism of advanced surround-sound formats, Dolby Digital Plus, Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD, and also support linear PCM 5.1ch audio. Up-conversion of standard DVD to a resolution of 1080i or 720p (1080p for HD-XA2) through an HDCP-capable HDMI output allows viewers to enjoy their current DVD libraries with an output resolution scaled to match their resolution of their HDTV or HD displays.
2. High definition picture output with up-converter and HDMI output Through the HDMI interface, high-definition pictures stored on a disc can be displayed digitally in HD, on digital TVs and displays that incorporate HDCP capable HDMI input. Such TVs include Toshiba's new LCD TV REGZA Z2000 series. Through the HDMI interface, standard definition DVDs can be up-converted to an output resolution of 720p or 1080i (1080p for HD-XA2), to complement the performance of a HDTV.

With the introduction of the high-definition (HD) resolutions such as 720p and 1080p, the aspect ratio became 16:9 also named widescreen, and was established as the new worldwide standard by TV industries and laptop screen manufacturers.
The Denon DVD-2930CI's jack pack consists of one HDMI output, one component-video output, one A/V output with S-Video, two digital audio outputs (one optical, one coaxial), a 5.1-channel analog output for multichannel music, Denon-Link, and an RS-232C port. The DVD-2930CI is able to perform upconversion over its HDMI output to 480i, 480p, 720p, 1080i, and 1080p resolutions. Like most DVD players, it cannot output SACD audio through its HDMI output, but it can output multichannel DVD-Audio.
The video quality performance of the DVD-2930CI was impressive, as we expected. We started off testing it with Silicon Optix's HQV Benchmark DVD, in 720p, 1080i, and 1080p modes, and were rarely disappointed. It performed excellently on everything from resolution tests to 2:3 pull-down tests. Even the difficult swaying flag test looked remarkably lifelike, without being peppered with artifacts that many other players produce. We were also impressed with the Denon's noise reduction capabilities, as it was able to smooth out simulated digital transmission noise, leaving a clean image. The bottom line is that the DVD-2930CI turned in the best performance we've seen of any player using the HQV Test Suite, which isn't surprising, considering that the Denon uses Silicon Optix's video-processing chip.
That said, I have over a quarter of a terabyte of 1080p Gilmore Girls at 40mb per minute (1.7gb) per episode -but that's its a rare exception - it's an archival HD copy which doesn't seem to have been publicly released.If I swapped it all out for my standard 720p, my wife would never notice. (In fact, she probably wouldn't notice if I swapped it for 480p.)
I've run dozens of tests running two clips side by side on different mediums - including my 10ft projector screen -and what I've found is that for my target size and bitrate,it's absolutely better to have great 720p rather than to have good 1080p.
So while, yes, if I were willing to significantly increase the storage, transfer, and stream size of my videosI could potentially get the quality difference high enough to be noticable, I find that I can instead getnoticeably better visual quality by beefing up my 720p.
This slider specifies how many frames are contained within a GOP (group of pictures). The values available in the slider are determined by the GOP structure property (described above). The maximum GOP size you can choose within Compressor is 15 frames (NTSC) or 12 frames (PAL and 720p). The minimum GOP size for all video formats is 6 frames (closed GOP) or 7 frames (open GOP).
Cropping: This pop-up menu sets the dimension of the output image. The custom option allows you to enter your own image dimensions in the fields; other options use predetermined sizes. The Letterbox Area of Source option detects image edges and automatically enters crop values to match them. This is useful if you want to crop out the letterbox area (the black bars above and below a widescreen image) of a source media file. 2ff7e9595c
