I am using firewire connected between my Sony HC42 and PC. I am using MovieMaker and I want to capture my tape onto the computer. I selected DV-AVI originally but this only captures the standard 4:3 TV aspect. My video is shot in 16:9 widescreen aspect and I am confused on what are the best settings to select when capturing the video to my computer. Any help would be much appreciated.
