I just used Makemkv to rip a copy of I Robot which polay in a dvd player as widescreen. However, the disc is labelled full screen and the Ripped mkv file is standard, a square. What did I do wrong. TIA

Blu-ray.com has two entries for
I, Robot (2004) on DVD. A
full-screen version and a
wide-screen version.
So, if you have the full-screen version then I would expect MakeMKV's output to be in full-screen (aspect ratio of 1.33:1 if you want to think about it that way).
If that same full-screen DVD shows up as 'widescreen' on your TV when you play the DVD in a DVD player, it is possible your TV is set to stretch full-screen content to fit the width of your screen.
