The VideoLAN Forums

The ~best~ output I can get is a square W=H frame size, genuine video W/H ratio not being transposed to H/W
Setting W>H I get repeated stack of the same ugly/funny nuns frames.
Setting W<H I get the same nuns on the right with a left glitchy/blinking/psychedelic column.

I'm not sure this was already reported for video caught by an android where the owner forgot to enable back the auto-rotate feature that teaches the camera where the ground is.

I'm running ubuntu 14.04 with libavcodec-extra-54 VLC216
Same on a win32 with latest VLC available to this day.

Yes, this is a VLC limitation.

Thank you to let us know JB, It was years since I try various setting.
Please which is you you favorite software to deal with this limitation, if ever there is one able to ?

I won't drop VLC although, it's such a great piece of soft.

Thanks again
