What is anamorphic media?

Some widescreen video material is shot using a special anamorphic lens that squeezes the wide image horizontally so it can be captured on the standard 4:3 aspect ratio of video. When this material is played back, it needs to be expanded horizontally to match the original shape. DVD Studio Pro can work with this anamorphic material and instructs DVD players to restore the shape on playback.
