[HELP] PAL widescreen DVD - problem with aspect ratio
#1
Hello,

I want to deinterlace a PAL DVD (720x576 widescreen) using Hybrid and QTGMC. I want to choose ProRes because it will be a intermediate for further processing. But I have problems with the output, it always encodes to 4:3 / 5:4 aspect ratio, it seems the widescreen flag / input AR is ignored somehow. Is there a way to encode the file with the proper AR?

Thank you and kindly regards!

Probably a bug in Hybrid, in case you do not have an audio stream.
When no audio is used and no additional muxing call is needed, Hybrid does not seem to add '-aspect <DAR>' to the stream.

In case you do have an audio stream and an additional muxing subjob exists, it's problably a problem with your settings.

Ps.: Probably easy to fix, but since you didn't mention which OS you are using I won't send you a dev version for testing. Fix will be included in the next release.

Sorry Selur, I am on Windows 10 (up to date). And no audio selected, correct.

Does that mean that you were using video only and thus no additional muxing step is present?

Yes, no additional audio is processed.

Not what I asked, but okay.
I'll compile and upload a new dev version which should fix the issue.
Will send you a link via pm in ~15min.
