Here's what a 960x544 video with a 1.76 aspect ratio looks like when opened with MPC-HC and after using the File/Properties menu (I just made one for testing, so it'll probably be different to the video in your screenshot): does it really matter if avidemux slightly changes the output AR? as long as the resolution is the same, will the 'cut' version look any different in practice?Īvidemux doesn't seem to keep the aspect ratio information when you're just copying the video (I'm assuming you're copying), but it makes it hard to know for sure what's happening as the aspect ratios being displayed in your screenshots are no doubt being rounded up and/or down to 1.76 and 1.78. is there a way to avoid this when using avidemux? and Not a problem where, depending on the resolution, the two are the same. I really like the program & it's great for cutting video but i've recently noticed that when i cut a video, avidemux will, depending on the source resolution, slightly change the display aspect ratio.įor example, if a source is 960x544 the input AR & display AR show up (in media players like kmplayer & potplayer) as follows:īut, if i then use avidemux to cut a piece of that same video (note: i don't need avidemux to encode video, just cut), i get this:įor some reason, when cutting, avidemux matches the display AR to the input AR. I'm using avidemux v2.6.8 (Windows 7, 64bit) but i've noticed the same issue with other versions, including 2.6.10.
