incorrect display aspect on Sony Bravia

[Illico]

do you have any content that is more than 1280 wide? would the command still stand or would it actually downscale to 1280?

No 1280 samples with bad DAR value.
In fact the (1) command will downscale to 1280.


So the solution:

- (a) if resolution not HD (720), upscale to a HD resolution with the original source dar, otherwise no need to upscale keep the original source dar.
- (b) padding to the 16/9 display ratio
- (c) change the DAR=4/3
note: to limit the cpu overhead, (a) could be skipped (but some pixels will be lost on left and right side)

H < 720 With DAR >= 16:9 ==> (a)+(b)+(c)

"-vf "scale=1280:1280/dar/sar","pad=1280:720:(ow-iw)/2:(oh-ih)/2:black","setdar=4:3"

H < 720 With DAR < 16:9 and W < 720 ==> (a)+(b)+(c)

"-vf "scale=720*dar*sar:720","pad=1280:720:(ow-iw)/2:(oh-ih)/2:black","setdar=4:3"

720 < H < 1080 With DAR > = 16:9 ==> (b)+(c)

-vf "pad=iw:iw/16*9:(ow-iw)/2:(oh-ih)/2:black","setdar=4:3"

720 < H < 1080 With DAR < 16:9 ==> (b)+(c)

-vf "pad=ih*16/9:ih:(ow-iw)/2:(oh-ih)/2:black","setdar=4:3"

I don't understand the preconditions (W,H) in your examples, there are missing examples for height less than 720. I think we'll go with b+c only. Could you edit the post with some real resolution and DAR examples?

Thanks for this btw.

Oups make some mistakes...post edited.

OK, this is the same option than PS3 Media Server with Mencoder ( We forget the 16 pixels missing at the moment).

Sorry, I need time...I will see.
