The DVD videos on videobox do vary. I just downloaded some earlier today. Here is one to check out to see the 720x480. Title of DVD is BJ Babes. Those are 720. I do believe the difference between 640 and 720 high end has to do with whether shot in widescreen format or normal format.

Same for me ... the videos having 720 pixel wide resolution are those in 16:9 widescreen format.

I asked our editors to look into this one and here's what they cam back with ...

OK, we spot-checked several DVD choices from newest to much older, and although they show only 640X480 as their highest resolution, when you download and open a clip, the actual resolution in Windows Media Player is 720X480, 3900k on the latest movies. The older movies (2006, 2005) appear to be at 640X480 on download.
We generally list the highest size we've found in our spot-checks, and that, although they show 640X480, if you will download a movie, you'll find that their current DVD resolution is at 720X480.

hope that helps

Hi,
I just rejoined the Videobox site after a longish absence. It is correct that the couple of videos I have looked at have been 720x480, but that makes the aspect ratio wrong (1.5 instead of 1.333...) - the image is wider than it should be. Fortunately this problem can be corrected by setting the aspect ratio manually to 4:3 in VLC player or another playing software that allows this. (But obviously the Videobox people should do something about it.)
If they have any widescreen videos the situation may be different (haven't seen any so far).
