I did some testing with a 1280 X 720 sample video that I compressed in two formats mpeg and h.264. I muxed the same content into a .m2ts, .ts and .mpg (for mpeg only) and then played them back in npvr. I cut the relevant section out of the log file for each video and pasted it here. I have tried three media splitter so far with no luck. (Haali, MPC - Mpeg Splitter, Arcsoft Demux). These logs were with the MPC - Mpeg Splitter.

(1) .m2ts playback

.ts files are the only ones where NPVR tries to actively manage the aspect ratio. The other file types are just left up to Windows.

GBPVR was the same, but did both .ts and .mpg files. Neither did anything special for .m2ts.

OK... Not sure why my system has the problem but I'll keep chipping way at it. Thanks

I'm wondering if changing the media splitter would help. I kind of think so becasue the .ts play fine. I'll try some things tommorrow to see if that helps.

Sure I can try it just for a test, but it is unacceptable for me to run it that way, and it causes a major drop in WAF Sad

From earlier I remember that the aspect ratio problem occures only under EVR, but that is the only render that giver me fullscreen video with the decoders I have to use.

No, I would agree, not a good long term solution.

Sub,

Did anything change between v1.5.28 and v1.5.31 as far as the vmr7 rendering. With v1.5.28 and earlier, everything was working fine.

Thanks.

Bloody hard to remember. Lots of stuff changed. I cant remember anything specifically related to VMR7 though.

Here's a screenshot of my aspect problem, this one from playback of a DVD with 4:3 content on a 16:9 telly. Using win7 64 and EVR - same setup on both GBPVR (which gets it right) and npvr which squashes it. Both using "Auto" aspect setting. Same happens on live TV 4:3 mpeg2 channels or ts recordings. I think it does it with h264 4:3 content too. Will find a .mkv sample to test with...

To me the NPVR screenshot looks most correct, the circle is perfect while in the gbpvr screenshot the circle is slightly oval.
