VLC ignores WMV anamorphic flags

Postby flirtationdance » 05 Sep 2022 17:56

Videos for example encoded in 720x480 4:3 will play back stretched and 720x576 4:3 will play back squashed. If I play them on WMP they'll play back correctly. It only happens to me with WMV videos...

Please open Tools -> Messages (set Verbosity to 2) before you start the playback, and then paste the full resulting log here or on Pastebin.com if it's too long.

Also upload a short sample of your original problematic file to Zippyshare.com or to WeTransfer.com and then post the link to the file here.

If needed cut it with DGsplit and read here about how to do it:

200 MB max should be enough.
