No letterbox option using ffmpeg codec?

[Dunnyman]

Using the mpegenc option, I can preserve my widescreen, but using the ffmpeg, I don't have this option and my movie gets quished? There has to be the option in there somewhere, but I'm missing it. Any help or pointers?

This option is available if you also enable "Decode with Quicktime". If you disable it, you may enter letterbox values manually in the filters tab.

Aha, then I'd better get the MPEG2 component for QuickTime installed, pronto! It's been weird though, for about two weeks, ffmpegX was just unusable, and now it works perfectly, even on files that it choked on two weeks ago....? No re-install, either. When will 1.0 be on the scene though?

There is no timeframe for release of 1.0.0, it will be a surprise. However, 0.0.9s will be released within some days and will bring many improvements.

as long as there's no need to update the binaries, another version is cool, it's been.....weeks...since the last one..
i'm sending you a PM about a tech issue though, unrelated to ffmpegX
