Hi, Uwe,
I just sent you a clip and am curious to see how it plays.
When I went back to Adobe Media Encoder, I noticed an interesting
thing about the PAR setting there. You don't actually set the pixel
aspect ratio, you set the screen aspect ratio and the encoder
automatically sets the PAR according to your frame width and height
so that your final result as the screen aspect ratio you specified.
So when I specify 1440x1080 pixels resolution and a PAR of Widescreen
16:9, the encoder sets a PAR of 1.33:1 when it encodes.
I can't find a program that displays what a video file's PAR is. WMV
and VLC Media Player both interpret PAR correctly, but when you look
at the codec properties (available only in VLC), it shows only the
dimensions of 1440x1080, not the PAR or the screen aspect ratio. It
would be interesting to know how PAR is embedded in an mp4 file and
how players interpret it.
