Hi, Just a heads up that as of ffmpeg N-31898-g95b5b52 (or a few commits before) libavfilter's setsar with scale and even crop seems to work consistently when transcoding e.g. from pal sources. Before, the behaviour differed haphazardly from other target codecs - i.e. you needed setdar too, or couldn't get a correct result at all. So, do not change it ;-) c -- theatre - books - texts - movies Black Trash Productions at home: http://www.blacktrash.org Black Trash Productions on Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/blacktrashproductions
