I noticed something the other day, that at least with the Walker Ultra, the aspect ratio in the MPEG2 is not being set correctly. It appears that it is being set as 1:1 instead of 4:3. I only noticed this once I tried to convert the corresponding file to a Xvid AVI using AutoGK. If I run the MPEG2 through ProjectX (a java based mpeg cleaner), It will correct the aspect ratio setting, and AutoGK can then detect the correct aspect ratio. This is causing the files to not crop correctly when converting. It would be nice to have the aspect ratio set correctly so that I can at least eliminate the extra step in my conversion process.

I dont explicitly set the aspect ratio in a recording. This is done automatically by the Walker and is just part of the MPEG2 stream generated by the device.

Ok, good news. After spending some good quality time with the TV Walker today, I have corrected this. In the next release it sets the aspect ratio to 4:3, and before you ask - we'll worry about 16:9 at a later stage...
