The source you're using is anamorphic - stored as 4:3 (which is why DGIndex shows it that way), but flagged to play back in 16:9.

All you have to do is correct your script with a resizing function to get it to display in its proper aspect ratio. Something like

Code: Select all

Lanczos4Resize(848,480)
would be fine, although you'd probably want to crop some, or go smaller, to 768x432 or 640x352.

Gah, I didn't notice you were using PAL footage. Change that 848x480 to 1024x576. Still 16:9, but normally it's best to retain vertical resolution for various reasons.
