Unable to obtain full screen when burning DVD

I have a trial version of Adobe Premiere Elements
8. When burning dvd and then playing on my tv through dvd player I am not getting a full screen. The wide screen video covers about 3/4 of the screen instead of the entire screen. The settings I am using are NTSC widescreen dolbyDVD, and Quality is checked with no changes in quality. The preview screen is set  on a magnificatgion fit. The Video is centered on the preview screen. I have spent hours trying to resolve this problem? I have a trial version and not sure if want to purchase with this problem.
I tried to upload the 8.01 up grade and my computer just blinks on and off; will not load?

I have been having the same problems.  See my discussion threads on aspect ratios in the past few days.
Let me share my thoughts on this.  Apparently Elements 8 is optimized to work on 4:3 CRT TV's; HD flat screen TV's must not have made much penetration in India yet.  So when you set the output for NTSC widescreen, what Elements does is compress the widescreen data into a 4:3 frame, squeezing the image horizontally.  Counterintuitively, what you have to do is select NTSC normal.  Then Elements does not further squeeze the widescreen data.  What it then does is fit it into a 16:9 letterbox, still containing the left and right bars, within the 4:3 frame.  Set the DVD to playback in widescreen mode, which expands the letterbox image to full width of the TV, though retaining the left and right bars, then zoom the TV image to full the screen, to eliminate all the bars top, bottom and sides.  Worked for me, but I used a SD camcorder set to record in widescreen.
A better option might be to change the default pixel aspect ratio, which I am yet unable to effectuate.

  • Error code -43 - unable to get file path when burning DVD

    I just installed Tiger on my son's iMac 500. Borrowed a Lacie DVD r/w and tried to burn the contents of a user folder to a DVD-R. It burned part of it, but failed with the following error:
    The operation can not be completed because one or more
    required items an not be found. (Error coed -43).
    Could not open the dat fork of "<unable to get file path>" (-43).
    I was able to burn a CD on the drive, but that was for another user directory that fit on a CD-R. The folder I was trying to burn to the DVD was about 1.1 G.
    Thanks,

    Hello User909807,
    After having some close calls with fraudulent purchases on my own bank account, I know how scary it can be to know someone else other than you had your personal information, so it was nice to know my issuing bank was helping keep my identity safe. Having said that, it’s completely understandable why it’d be frustrating to discover you were unable to continue making purchases after confirming your identity via text, and I apologize if this caused any unintentional frustration.
    While I’ll be sure to document your feedback regarding our partnership with Citibank, N.A., please know that they are the issuer of your My Best Buy credit card account. As such, I will be glad to share your concerns with our Citibank contacts so that they may contact you to discuss your account in further detail. Please know you should receive follow-up contact from them within the next 3-5 business days.

  • How do I make multiple videos on one slide play in full screen when selected?

    I want to put four short videos per slide and have each play in full screen when I click on them. How can I do this? Thanks

  • Hardware Error when burning DVD's

    I keep getting an error message when burning DVD's using Toast Titanium on my iMac..it reads:
    "Drive Reported an error, Sense key = hardware error, sense code = 0 x 03."
    Twice after getting that message I couldn't continue to burn and it stopped, once it did continue to burn and finished successfully. Any ideas, anyone?
    17" iMac G5 w/ iSight   Mac OS X (10.4.3)   upgraded to 1GB RAM

    I get the same message today when burning from Toast 7.02 on my iMac. It happened when I was trying to make an audio CD from my iTunes collection (not when Copying from CD to CD). The exact message I got in the middle of my burn was:
    The drive reported an error:
    Sense Key = hardware Error
    Sense Code = 0x03, 0x01
    I tryed again with another CD and got the same thing. I never had a problem with these CD's (TDK CD-R up to 48x).
    I wonder if there has to be some sort of software upgrade fro Roxio Toast or is this a superdrive malfunction/etc. My Superdrive gets very loud during this burn as well. I may take it in to Apple Genius Bar. Any ideas?

    How do i get my videos to be full screen when editing and viewing on ipad 2. When editing videos in imovie the video isnt zoomed in all the way, this is with imported videos as well as ipad videos... Please help!!

    Oh, unless you shot tall.

    Shoot wide, or edit in a different editing app.

    No, there is no legitimate way to downgrade iOS to an earlier version.
    Be patient, Apple will eventually get around to fixing the "bugs" in iOS 6.

  • Make a picture fit the full screen when published?

    I can´t seem to get my picture to fit the full screen when I publish it. There are some alternatives.
    To drag the picture into the canvas and enlarge it.
    Drag it into the Page background or drag it into the web browser background. Iv tried them all and they look allright in iWeb but there are gaps in every direction when published to the web.

    See, that leads us to my second problem. I have a trial period on .mac and when I uploaded some wavs, the disk space quickly ran out. I erased the wavs but the space used is still the same. Is there a way to empty the cache so I dan show it to you.
    Thanks for the quick reply, by the way.

  • HT204291 How does one get full screen when using air play on my tv from my iPad,thanks in advance

    How does one get a full screen when using air play on my tv when I'm mirroring,.? Thanks in advance

    The iPad's display is 4:3, so it cannot fill your TV screen, which is 16:9
    The only way is to change your TV settings and stretch the image.

  • Firefox resizes to full screen when I type anywhere in Firefox

    I launch Firefox and start typing a URL or search string and the Firefox window instantly resizes to full screen. This happens only once after launching Firefox. I can 'restore down' and continue without the problem occurring again, unless I close Firefox and relaunch, and then window will resize to full screen when I start typing. Problem started about one month ago. Win 7 16-bit, FF 3.6.8. Thanks in advance!
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == last Firefox update?

    One correction, Win 7 32-bit ;)
