i recently bought a dvd at walmart and i am trying to add it to the online database the only thing that is holding me adding the video format, i know when i put it in the dvd player it full frame and i don't know what the ratio of the movies are cause the back cover doesn't say all it does say is the over view of each movie, if you need some pictures let me know?

Well first what type of tv are you watching it on? 4:3 or a Widescreen 16:9?

That doesn't necessarily come into it as it may depend on whether or not the equipment is set up correctly, ie is it a 4:3 image being stretched to 16:9, does the TV have overscan, etc...

I'd say that if you can't play it on a computer to tell, leave the AR out for the moment & fill it in at a later time or let someone else do it who can tell.

It's more likely to be 4:3 but I've also seen releases in 1.78:1 described as full frame.

Wallyworld tends to favor Full Frame (P&S) format to WS -- especially in their bargain bins - IMHO.
