aspect ratio bug in 2.33.976
 

In bsplayer pro 2.33.976, when pressing "A" to cycle aspect ratios, instead it resizes the video window to the size that would have been used by the new ratio, and then displays the video in the same aspect ratio as it was, but with black vertical bars at either side, or on the top and bottom, to compensate for the new "fake" aspect ratio, while not actually changing the ratio of anything but the window frame itself.

The ratio changes correctly for a split second before the video scrunches up and the black bars appear.

Aspect ratio works correctly in version 2.32.975, with the same setup and same ffdshow version on my pc, so I have downgraded until this is fixed.

I am using:
Vista Ultimate 64-bit (x64)
EVR
ffdshow "version Oct 26 2008 16:11:24 (msvc 2003, x86, unicode)"

Cannot confirm for XP. Perhaps Vista/EVR specific? Anyone?
:wink:

I have the exact same problem.
Using vista 32bit, ffdshow clsid build 2008-12-11...

It is very annoying and makes me using another video players because of it.
Does anyone have a solution?

@tupac7:
Also EVR by any chance?
:wink:

yea, i checked rendering mode, it is evr
what do you want to tell me by this, i dont get it :?

He is trying to find a common cause. Probably this bug it's present only under Windows Vista when using EVR ;) SOme of us can't confirm this as we don't use Vista, those on XP can't confirm as XP can't use EVR.

I just read in changelog-details of today's Beta-version 2.34.979 (200812121843) i.a.:
so I suppose this problem may be solved when version 2.34 is released.
:wink:

tupac7... long time no see..
Yes, problem fixed with latest beta release.
Just be patient and wait for the final release due to this week

hi, yeah, well i am not too often here my friend :)

Thanks for that, can't wait for the update to come, because thats very annoying issue of bsplayer
do you have an idea when it will be released

Earlier to-day yet another new beta-version was released, so I would expect it somewhere next week (certainly before X-mas).
