So far, the only way I have been able to do it is because my camcorder has that feature. If I set to record in 16:9 I can then process the video that way.
My video editors are somewhat old so there may be some new ones that will work. I just haven't taken time to research the new editors.

If you trying to create an AVI file from capture that is 16:9 ratio, then try something like this:

Choose DV AVI (or AVI)as your movie type. Then, click on the arrow down icon at the right side of FRAME SIZE. This will give you several options. Choose something like 1920x1080 or 1280x720, both of which are 16:9 ratio.

Nan may have a more exact suggestion. I believe she has done this type thing before.

The only way to use CAPTURE to create an AVI file is to choose either AVI or DVI.

Choosing DVD NTSC or DVD PAL will create an MPEG-2 file (which is less quality but also smaller size), but these don't come in 16:9 ratio.

You could choose MPEG-2 as your movie type and then choose one of the 16:9 ratios (1920x1080 or 1280x720). This will not be an AVI file, but depending on your needs it may work fine.

Has anyone found a way to use a different codec to reduce the size of the AVI/DV AVI file within CAPTURE? I haven't tried and don't know if it's possible or not.
