How to? Format YouTube videos to custom size

QuickTime 7 Pro can do it easily.
What are you trying to do with an aspect ratio that far off?
you'll always lose some quality when re-compressing video using common codecs and you'll probably lose some more when scaling...
but that's probably not what you were asking about.
to uncheck the "keep aspect ratio" box in handbrake, you have to select "none" under "anamorphic".

@boch82: Thanks bud.
it's to format the video file so that it fills the screen in my car.
I happen to have QuickTime Pro. And it worked perfectly.
@Unami: Thank you very much. The know the software well!
Of course - I could skip all of this and, as you pointed out Unami, not degrade the quality if there were a way to just pull the video to my custom format from YouTube....
