your wanting to get rid of the black border right? any vid editor even the free ones will work, just crop all to get rid of the border and then save back... i tried that using paintshoppro 7 avi editor... it worked XD but, i lost the sound :annoyed: .

If they are AVI video Virtual Dub will do it (free). You will need to Crop and Resize to keep the correct aspect ratio.

Yes :) Just trying to help. I've tested many video editors in the past, only a few can crop. The only free one that can Crop and resize AVI without re-encoding that I know of and without loosing quality is virtualdub. If you only crop you wind up with a size that is non standard. If you can make that size work with Warzone then you do not loose quality. When you resize after the crop you have to loose some video in the direction that you didn't crop in order to keep aspect ratio correct, so you end up with less quality than with what you started with.

Might be late, but I have a dedicated video editing PC under my fingers (working in a TV studio... **giggles**)... at your disposal ^^

btw, using EDIUS 5 as VideoEditor Software
