OK Juud , too late to back out now - can I have your autograph now you're a TV star ? ;)
Here's the link :-

YouTube - Golden Wedding Celebration

or search for "Golden Wedding Celebration"

:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D wonderful

The whole thing has been bloody fantastic! Well done all of you!

Excellent - now I understand. However, on the technical front, I notice you have the same problem as me on some conversions - what started as a widescreen tv picture has ended up 4:3 on youtube. (Or is it only me that gets a 4:3 view?). What did you use for the ripping?

No I get 4:3 as well.

This popped up after a quick 'shufti'. Free MP4 AVI 3GP FLV Video Media Converter Free Software - Quick Media Converter HD Home Page - Free FLV TO AVI DIVX DVD MP4 MPEG MP3 H264 IPHONE IPOD MOV WMV XVID WII XBOX PS3 3GP 3G2 TS VOB MKV SWF OGG Free Video Audio Converter Cocoon Software DOW

It might help - 22.4MB file.

Apologies for the long link!

Great story. A tear jerker. Congrats.

Once I figured out how to finalize the disc, I used HandBrake ( as recommended by Marlowe - thanks :ok:) to rip it to MPG format & then uploaded it to YouTube which makes it an FLV file, with the result you've seen. I didn't try to alter the screen format.

@ BOAC
Thanks for the link - have just d/l'd the zip file - will give it a try :)

As recommended by me I think.

There are various anamorphic settings to play with.

@ Background Noise
Woops - sorry - you are correct as your post was #7 & Marlowe's was #14.
Trouble is, when you are posting & scroll down, it showes the newest posts first :ooh: (Nurse, time for my medication ! :O )
