No video for non square Pixel aspect ratio

Post by homing »

In R6, i have some old clips that have been encoded with DV pixel ratio (0.91) Encoded in Photojpeg or DXV
(yeah i know... should be in square pixel. But they are old clips and and were working fine in R5)

Well all those clips with non square ratio pixel, they don't play. Click them, dont play.
their width show up as 0

But what is weird, if i drag and drop the video clip from the explorer and replace the video track in the clip tab. It will be replaced and will work.... For that session. Next time i open that composition , won't work again (even i save the composition )

if you wanna try it with one of the clip having issues:

I've double checked it and it works for me on all the Resolume's, including Arena 4, 5, 6 and related Avenue's.

It plays fine for me as well on Arena 6.0.2 on Mac but it plays as 640x480 which is the file size when adjusted to square pixels so I have to set the width to 720 or scale it horizontally to 112.5% to get it to look natural.

Would you do this test please ?
Drag that clip to a new comp (it plays well)
Save that comp.
Close and re-open R6.0.2
try to play that clip (Should not play, and you should see that issue with the width at 0px)


same bug was reported by somebody else on facebook

I did that many times over and it works no problems on my end. It might have something to do with your system.
