Actaully, your both wrong, wrong, wrong, and at the same time,
somewhat right. If you go to GulPlum's webpage and look at the
examples, you will see that indeed, standard format has more image on
the top and bottom while the sides are trimmed off. Widescreen, on the
other hand, has the top and bottome trimmed off, but more image at the
sides.

In the not too distant past there was a long discussion on this
subject and GulPlum explained it all. Worth searching out.
