Transcoding anamorphic sources
Posted: Mon Jul 05, 2010 8:28 pm
Hi,
Is there a profile available that supports anamorphic sources? Almost all videos in WMV that I have is anamorphic. In fact, that is the most common format for DVD's and TV shows in Europe. File properties returns 720x576, but the real size can vary, most commonly 1024x576 (1.78:1). But of course, 1.85:1 and even 2.35:1 can exist.
If auto-detecting of the "pixel-size" isn't possible, can you please give instructions on how to hard-code to 1024x576. Whatever I have tested gives a 4:3 output of 720x576.
regards,
WeBe
PS. I had a custom profile that worked in WMS 0.9, but that doesn't work anymore in version 1.3 to 1.4.1
