He repeats a portion of the spiel a minute or two later- I didn't continue on to edit that in.
The short of it is, there's a process for Aaron, if he feels there's been a violation on the show, and Aaron followed it. The PO supposedly said fine, how do you prevent it happening again? Given how he repeats it, I wouldn't be surprised if the explanation is part of his talk with his...
I originally uploaded this video (anamorphic):
4:02
But noted things were off, so I did the quick re-encode for the version on the linked post.
The old player seems to understand the issue.
However, after processing, it turns to this:
After processing, the aspect ratio in the second video is truly worthy of the Toe.
I believe this is because Handbrake allows the user to set an anamorphic resolution. In the second video, the stored resolution is at 720x480, but the displayed resolution should stretch it to 980x480. Taking a screenshot from VLC gives this:
But a screenshot from windows gives this:
My guess is the "displayed resolution" is being ignored in the transcoding, and only the native resolution is followed, or else it's not supported?
Details on output between the two videos:
Codec info from VLC:
Settings from Handbrake for the anamorphic:
Settings for the square pixel:
I did change resolutions between the two versions, but the only other variable was disabling anamorphic, which may be a default setting in HB. I also edited out the scroll at the bottom (in KDenLive), because all that does is suck up MB, and it adds nothing for our needs.
Edit to add: All that to say, the current process is probably missing either an aspect ratio tag or a display resolution tag (or equivalent for the smaller format), if it supports one. Otherwise, forcing the video processing to change the video output size to square pixels.
A minor second issue is the process seems to ignore any included subtitles. This is honestly so minor, but I wanted to flag in case it's of use in other contexts.
