Ripping aspect ratio

I'm using DVDFab and when I copy a DVD (Attack of the Clones) and put it in my DVD player, the display fills the widescreen (16:9) TV. When I rip the DVD to MP4 and try to watch it on the same TV, it shows black bars at the top and bottom. Cropping is set to Auto. Is this an anamorphic effect on the DVD? Is there anyway to rip the MP4 so it will display the same as the DVD?

Thanks,
