: I have absolutely no idea what that means :(
: I'm not very display settings recording savy :/

16:9 and 4:3 are "aspect ratios." Basically, 16:9 video is 16/9ths wider than it is tall, and 4:3 video is 4/3rds wider than it is tall. So, if we assume that the pixels have a square shape (as opposed to non-square rectangles), video with a resolution of 1920x1080 has an aspect ratio of 16:9 because 1920=(16/9)*1080. On the other hand, video with a resolution of 640x480 has an aspect ratio of 4:3 because 640=(4/3)*480.

Now, here's where your problem is. You've captured video that was generated as a 16:9 image in the Xbox 360, and then stored it as a 4:3 image.

So, if the Xbox 360 generated a pretty good circle in a 16:9 image...

...it would look like this in your 4:3 video...

...which is clearly very un-circle-like.
