Hey Ady. Thanks for the trailer, its great!

But  on a technical note: The aspect ratio information in the video seems to be wrong. Playing the file in mplayer it reports:

Movie-Aspect is 1.78:1 - prescaling to correct movie aspect.

Of course this results in a stretched image when playing.

Only adding a "-aspect 2.35:1" manually allows playback of the video in the right ratio.

I dont know if this happens with other media players too (Propably not, they may take their ratio information only from the resolution, wich of course already is 2.35:1), but there is definetly something to fix right here:

======= Video Properties Header =======
Format: 0 VideoStandard: 0
VRefresh: 24 HTotal: 1280 VTotal: 544
FrameAspect: 16:9 Framewidth: 1280 Frameheight: 544
Fields: 1
  == Field 0 description ==
  CompressedBMHeight: 544 CompressedBMWidth: 1280
  ValidBMHeight: 544 ValidBMWidth: 1280
  ValidBMXOffset: 0 ValidBMYOffset: 0
  VideoXOffsetInT: 0 VideoYValidStartLine: 0
=======================================

 

I'm not the sharpest tool in the shed, but isn't 1280x544 2.35:1? Sure looks that way to me.

It looks like your "mplayer" is even reporting the correct file info....must be a problem with the linux version of mplayer.
