I
struggle to keep up with your emails, partly because I am
not
familiar with "old" formats. @Andrew, what patches should
I use for
testing?
hopefully patch in this thread should be
relatively safe to apply first. It changes same ffmpeg.C but
in far away region from one touched by second series.
After it you can load say hdv sample and
observe one or two new items in ffmpeg detailed info.
Then you can try to apply
0001-Set-also-sample-aspect-ratio-for-encoded-ffmpeg-stre.patch
0002-Guard-ffmpeg.C-stream-sample-aspect-ratio-only-for-f.patch
0003-fix-guard-for-stream-sample-aspect-ratio-for-more-fm.patch
and observe that hopefully
1) blu-ray encoding still starts.
2) webm/mov/mp4/avi containers now carry their
own display aspect ratio info, so vlc and mplayer plays things
correctly stretched.
