ratio is kept and black bars are added if necessary.

Resolution

Defines the resolution of the output. The values available are determined by

the aspect ratio and codec.

If you choose Custom, you can define a custom value for the resolution of

the output. Enter width and height in the input fields below. However, the

selected aspect ratio is kept. A corrected resolution is displayed in the

individual output settings for the source file.

If you choose Automatic, Nero Recode sets the resolution as close as

possible to the original value.

Drop-down

Frame rate

Defines the frames per second of the output. If you choose Automatic, Nero

Recode sets the frame rate as close as possible to the original value.

e.g. bilinear , bicubic , Lanczos and superresolution.

Only the resizing methods allowed for the chosen codec are displayed.

Deinterlace

Selects a method for deinterlacing the current video. Video images are shown

as two half images in interlaced mode. Every second line (1, 3, 5, …, 575) is

shown in the first half image. The second half image displays the rest of the

lines in the image (2, 4, 6,… 576), so that the eye perceives a full picture. Most

video material consists of half images.

Weave: The easiest way to fill in half images consists of displaying even and

odd half images simultaneously. This way, one half image fills in the lines

missing from the other half image. The Weave deinterlacing method is

appropriate if both half images originate from the same point in time and can

be interlaced inconspicuously.

Blend: Consecutive interlaced fields are combined and then averaged

together. This is very fast, but image details in the vertical axis may be

removed. So called ghost artifacts may also occur and resolution may be lost.

Interpolate: One of the two interlaced fields gets discarded completely, and

each discarded line is replaced by an average of its upper and lower neighbor
