recording rtsp stream in HD format

[pled]

Hello,

I am french, and my internet provider provides RTSP links to view TV channels. Each channel is proposed in 3 formats : low, normal and hd. I am running Ubuntu 10.04 and VLC 1.0.6 Goldeneye.
To view/record TV channels, I use QMagneto (http://biord-software.org/fr/qmagneto/), an EPG developped by a french guy.
The command (QMagneto setting) to register using VLC is :

Code: Select all

"$STREAM" :sout=#duplicate{dst=display,dst=std{access=file,mux=mp4,dst="$OUT.mpg"}} "$OUT"

For low and normal formats, all is fine.
For hd format, I can view the channel without any problem. Looking at codec information, I can see :
codec h264 - Resolution 1440x1080 - display resolution 1440x1080

But when I record the hd channel, then play the recorded file, the video is not displayed in the good resolution. Looking at codec information, I can see :
hd : codec avc1 - resolution 1440x1080 - display resolution 1440x544

As far as I understand, it is about encoding correctly the h264 format ? is it possible ? what should be the command then ?

Thanks

I am using VLC version 1.0.6 Goldeneye, the one shipped with Ubuntu 10.04.

You can find a sample of the recording here :

I did not noticed it before, but when reading it with VLC, it is a bit "shaked".
Reading it with Totem (the default reader) it is not shaked. Note the codec information from Totem says :
Codec H264 / AVC - 1440x544
