What's the aspect ratio of the source? Sounds like the source is 16:9. If this is the case you'll have to rencode to change the aspect ratio to 4:3. There's a few different ways to do this. With out knowing what the source file is I.e mkv, h264, m2ts, or vob I can't start throwing suggestions at you.
