VMR9 aspect ratio problem

[csy]

Hi Sub,

I have observed that the VMR9 display mode is not keeping the original aspect ratio on DVD playback, and instead is streching the image to full-screen.

My preferred video/audio decoders are Intervideo and have set their merit to be the default prefered decoders (proven with GSpot), and set gbpvr to "System Default" for all playback and DVD choices, and selected VMR9. With this configuration, gbpvr is not preserving the DVD original aspect ratio. I also get the same result if I use the Cyberlink decoders.

Using Graphedit I have proven the default VMR9 renderer is outputing the correct aspect ratio to the default player. This applies to both the Intervideo decoder and the Cyberlink decoder. I have also observed that if you change the gbpvr configuration from VMR9 to Overlay mode, then the original aspect ratio is preserved in Overlay mode. This leads me to believe something is wrong with the gbpvr VMR9 display mode.

Could you please investigate this problem?

GB-PVR never attempts to retain the original aspect ratio. With VMR you can press F7 to toggle between aspect ratios.
