I record video with mythtv off my PVR-350. When I play it back in xine
it looks fine, but when I tell xine to take a screen shot, it comes out
squished.
When I play it back in xine with "automatic" aspect ratio, it seems to
play in the 4:3 aspect ratio. If I set the aspect ratio to "square" it
looks squished. If I set the aspect ratio to "4:3" it looks good. No
matter what aspect ratio I set it to, when I tell xine to take a
snapshot, it comes out squished (like it does in the "square" aspect ratio).
I'm wondering if the Setup > TV Settings > Recording Profiles > MPEG ,
Encoders > Default > Width & Height settings have something to do with
it. I think they are at the defaults, but I have no idea what they
should be or how they would affect things:
== Image Size ==
Width: 480
Height: 480
== Video Compression ==
Stream Type: MPEG-2 PS
Aspect Ratio: 4:3
Bitrate: 4500
Max. Bitrate: 6000
== Audio Quality ==
Sampling Rate: 32000
Type: Layer II
Bitrate: 384kbs
Volume (%): 50
Are those all good for the PVR-350?
FWIW, When I use nuvexport to do the mpeg2cut, it reports the video size
is 720x480 MPEG. So, I'm thinking of changing the image size settings in
myth to 720x480, but I'd just be twiddling a knob with no understanding
about what I am doing.
