Editing Canon Videos in Nero

Hi there, I have been recordin video on a Canon HD Legria HFR28 and have been editing them in Nero Video 11. Everything looks good except when they have been uploaded to youtube, as the videos are squashed top and bottom like a pancake. None of the video is missing, it is just flat. I have tried all different setting changes however so far any video edited in nero goes flat in youtube. I have tested editing the video with the Canon editing software that came with the camcorder, and the aspect ratio looks fine however the quality of the video is poor and the Canon editing features are not as good. Is there a way to edit the Canon video in Nero and eliminate the squashed look in youtube? P.S. I have tried the tabs such as yt:crop=16:9 however it seems to only sometimes work and it doesn't work on some devises (ipad). Also it can sometimes cause the video to be zoomed in loosing lots of video on all sides. HELP! Regards, Scott

SOURCE: Editing videos taken from canon dc100 camcorder

I see here that . . .

"The DC100 takes 3-inch Mini DVD-R/RW discs, and like most of its competitors, can fit about 20 minutes of best-quality video on one. If you choose to initialize a disc for playing in a standalone player, the camcorder writes standard VOB files; if you initialize for future editability, it records in the VRO format. Windows Media Player can play the latter if you rename the file with an MPG extension, however the aspect-ratio information gets lost--that info is encoded into a separate file--so 16:9 video will get squashed into 4:3. "

Cnet Reviews.

Your videos are recorded in the common DVD format called MP2.
They have the extention .MPG so if you copy the video files to your computer, and change the end of the filename from VOB, or VRO to an MPG then your software can recognize it as the MP2 format that it is.

There is a Windows XP program, called Windows Movie Maker, it can open your video files and provide you with most of the video editing tools.

Cheers.
