Ripbot and 2.76 Aspect Ratio

[wulf109]

I'm trying to convert an mp4 file to Blue Ray but Ripbot keeps squarshing it to 2.40 AR instead of keeping the 2.76 AR. I tried to set the size,1280 x 464 manually but then it tells me it's not standard frame size. Is there a workaround for this?

Yes there is a work around use a standard size video. Select the option HD Ready 1280 x 720 under properties. Ripbot will should add black borders to make video compliant.

That doesn't work. When you select HDReady 1280x720 it also selects a 2.40 AR by default. I'm trying to preserve the 2.76 AR.

You can manually edit the script to achieve the resolution you desire then modify the border settings accordingly.

Last resort would be to select custom under the re-size field set the width at 1280 and height at your desired resolution. Then manually edit the avisynth script to add black borders to the top and bottom of the video.

Thanks for the reply. I converted it with BDtoACHD after converting it to mkv format. That preserved the correct AR.
