Hi everyone, I am using MediaPortal with FFDshow to upscale my TV/Videos/everything and I encountered a big problem. Somehow FFDShow seems to ignore the aspect ratio tag on anamorphic video, how can i change that?

For example a DVD coded in 720x576 will be upscaled, but only using the wrong 5:4 aspect ratio of the source material. I can correct it manually, but since I am using ffdshow for Movies and TV as well, I have to change it everytime I use it.

Using TV the problem is similar, when I watch via DVB-T the broadcast is in 704x576 (11:9) and needs to be resized to 4:3, or its in 720x576 anamorphic for 16:9 broadcasts. I need a way to tell ffdshow to recognize the original aspect ratios, when I open the configuration during playback it shows the correct ratio in the Resize & Aspect tab, but it somehow doesn't use it.

I'm just going to bump your thread because I have the same problem.
when I configure ffdshow to upscale video, xvid, divx, ... work fine, but DVD's are displayed in the wrong aspect ratio.

Maybe someone who has successfully configured ffdshow to resize and postprocess all video can export their settings and post hem here (together with a link to the ffdshow-version used)?
