Title: DVD playback - 4:3 aspect ratio?
Post by: Osho on April 26, 2009, 08:58:18 pm

Hi,

I am playing a few DVDs that are in 4:3 aspect ratio. When I play these DVDs with MC13 (.152) - I have various choices of Aspect Ratio but none that is 4:3. Here is my system configuration

Windows Vista 64
Renderer: EVR
Video decoder : Dscaler5
Audio decoder : Dscaler5
Bitrate monitor is turned off

Any suggestions?

thanks,
Osho

Just choose "No cropping".

I did choose the no cropping aspect ratio - however that one did not make the video look in the "correct" aspect ratio. The picture looked as if the 4:3 image was stretched widely to fill a 16:9 screen.

thanks,
Osho

That is strange.  I am not seeing such problem on my computer (XP).  Have you made any settings changes on the video decoder itself?

NO, I have not made any settings changes on the video decoder. I am using Dscalaer5 btw.
