From b266a334c12fb15d76921517fac38179f9bf99be Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: wm4 Date: Thu, 29 Jun 2017 22:34:57 +0200 Subject: video: change --video-aspect-method default value again I noticed that the previous default, bitstream, actually breaks with some shitty anamorphic DVD rips that signal square pixel aspect in the bitstream. So I think the "container" method is a better default. --- DOCS/man/options.rst | 15 +++++++++------ 1 file changed, 9 insertions(+), 6 deletions(-) (limited to 'DOCS') diff --git a/DOCS/man/options.rst b/DOCS/man/options.rst index 1fd484c4da..2be7de2195 100644 --- a/DOCS/man/options.rst +++ b/DOCS/man/options.rst @@ -825,15 +825,18 @@ Video switches mid-stream, switch to preferring the bitstream aspect.
