Actually, I think you are be right about the aspect. I seem to remember having the same issue after converting it to a 2.35:1 aspect after capturing my own PAL set a while back, despite the sleeve stating its at 2.35:1! Even with the black bars uncropped (left and right only) that are normally overscanned by CRT TV's, its only in the region of 2.3:1.

If OUT AR is correctly set at 2.35:1, then SET is less, as it seems like "zoomed" in comparison to OUT... when directly compared "by eye", then 2.25:1 fit better, but maybe I'm wrong, and could be everything between 2.25 and 2.35.

I don't understand how SET is anamorphically encoded though, as stated in your description of the source materials for the comparison, as it has been upscaled to 1280x720 (which isn't anamorphic) from a letterboxed source (also not anamorphic).

My fault, sorry... thought letterbox, wrote anamorphic... you know, it was late, I was tired, I'm getting old... |xX_|

No seeders on the torrent ATM, I'm going to leave my system on once its complete and help to seed it, although that could be a while as its currently only 0.1% complete. ;)

I just switched off the wrong PC... yes, I'm getting old, but they are THE SAME PC - identical - apart the inside components, so this time I must be excused... now, the PC with GKAR Vs SET is on, and will be online for the next days, to seed it as long as I can!
