@ Michael I tried transcode, but I didn't get it working properly. /usr/bin/transcode -i ar.mpg -y ffmpeg --export_prof dvd-pal --export_asr 2 -o ar43 -D0 -s2 -m ar.mp2
First, the resulting picture size is wrong: instead of 720x576 I get 720x768. And second, I still need mplex as I need for ProjectX, too. :-( I looks like, that I have to write a small shell script, which calls ProjectX and mplex automatically. @Jürgen I don't use DVD Author, because I just put the mpg files on DVD and burn it. I'm not owning a standalone DVD player. I have only PC and Laptops. :-) Michael Riepe schrieb: > Hi! > > Dominik wrote: > >> Hi, >> I have one bug report and one feature request. >> >> Please download the example from >> http://kabelfunk.de/dvbcut/aspect_ratio.mpg >> >> Bug: >> Frame 18 is 4:3 but reported as 16:9. >> This has the sideeffect that "suggest bookmark" is always one frame to late. >> > > Actually, an aspect ratio of 16:9 is correct.
