Aspect Ratio setting altered?

[williamduffy]

Hi there

I have been using Hybrid only for the purpose of deinterlacing my videos. Since installing the latest version it is now altering the aspect ratios from 4:3 to widescreen of every video I try to deinterlace, even though I have never made any changes to the aspect ratio settings.

How can I fix this?

you have to manually set the aspect you want.

for example i'm deinteralcing PAL videos and i need to place on CROP/RESIZE --> BASE --> Pixel aspect ratio (PAR)   as a input par : 16 x 15

Hybrid reads the PAR using MediaInfo, if MediaInfo does not provide a PAR, 1:1 is assumed.
If your source isn't properly flagged, you can/should let Hybrid know the proper PAR under 'Crop/Resize->Base->Pixel Aspect Ratio (PAR)->Input PAR'
see: [INFO] About pixel aspect ratios,.. for typical PAR values

If you want to convert to another PAR while maintaining the proportions, you need to enable 'Crop/Resize->Base->Pixel Aspect Ratio (PAR)->Convert output to PAR' and set the wanted 'Output PAR'.

Important, be sure you understand the difference between display and pixel aspect ratio. (Hybrid uses pixel aspect ratio, not display aspect ratio.)

Ps.: For the future: read the sticky and provide proper details like mentioned in the sticky, especially the debug output is important.

Discovered the problem and fixed it. Under Crop/Resize Pixel Aspect Ratio (PAR), Input PAR had an AR amount in there which should have been 1:1 but was a different amount (which I forget). I clicked in front of Force Input PAR type, and the setting was returned to 1:1.
I have never used any of these PAR settings before, so I don't know how they changed. However, I am now going to save these new settings for next time!
