I've also tried command line options till I'm blue in the face! I understand I'm probably being a dimwit, but if you could actually tell me which setting to use I would be incredibly grateful. I found the transcode options, and I've tried several of them, but as yet I don't get the result I need. I have already stated where you can find the transcode options for the change. I'll play with those - but my gut feeling is, if I can't get the simple 'play' to appear correctly, I've no hope with transcoding! I also see filters 'video scaling filter' and 'video transformation filter'. I see an option for 'video canvas aspect ratio', and I've tried setting it to 16:9, but it has no impact on the visual appearance of the transcoded output. I've also looked at the Preferences, Stream output, Sout stream, Transcode section. In other words, what 'preferences' or command line option would implement the same action as 'video/aspect ratio/16:9'?
What preferences section applies to the simple playing of a video (without any transcoding)? Maybe I'm not looking in the right place. I've looked at all the options in the preferences, but cannot find one that causes the video to play correctly using 'quick file open' (without having to modify aspect ratio from the menu once started) (trying to eliminate transcoding from the mix as it's an extra layer). Is this the expected behavior for an 'enhanced 16x9' source? As soon as I switch the video from 'default' to '16:9' on the video/aspect ratio menu, the visual appearance is clearly correct. The video starts playing in VLC in an obviously distorted manner - it's very 'wide' - short fat people. (and having done a 'reset' in preferences to ensure no non-default settings are in play). Now, while this problem first manifested itself while trying to transcode, I reproduced it by doing nothing other than launching VLC, and choosing 'File/Quick Open File.' and pointing to the chapter in question. I've been banging my head against this one for about 8 hours non-stop now! I have read the forums, wiki, and faqs, including a very extensive thread between yourself and another poster on the topic of 'enhanced 16:9'. I've googled and experimented till I'm blind. I've tried all manner of 'aspect ratio' commands in the transcode command, to no avail.

So I can fix the problem when simply playing the chapter (by using video/aspect-ratio/16:9), but I cannot figure out how to fix the video during transcoding. main video output debug: picture out 720x480 (0,0,720x480), chroma I420, ar 16:9, sar 32:27Īs you can see, the 49-UP chapter shows 'ar' as 64:27, which is 2.37 - but the material is 16:9.
While the 'March' chapter has this info in the log: The 49-UP chapter has this info in the log: If I extract a chapter from another 16:9 DVD (March of the Penguins, FWIW), it plays correctly at 16:9 using default settings. I can 'fix' the display by choosing 'video/aspect-ratio/16:9' from the menu, but I can't get this aspect ratio change to apply when transcoding. The chapter starts playing at 64:27 (2.37:1). To simplify the problem, I found that I could replicate the problem just by playing the Chapter using VLC's 'Quick Open File.' menu item. Actual pixel dimensions vary slightly from camera to camera.Initially I tried to transcode a chapter from a DVD (49-Up, FWIW), but could not get the correct output aspect ratio.
