How to do crude anamorphic in GUI?

Post by trumpet205 »

So I read that CLI can do crude anamorhpic, but I can't seem to get GUI to do the same thing. I have a 716 x 480 video that is stretch to 848 x 480 by anamorphic.

I want to encode that video straight to 848 x 480, not 716 x 480 that is stretched during playback. How would I do it under GUI?

The GUI doesn't allow upscaling so you're out of luck.

I think if you choose Anamorphic = None and select Maintain Aspect, then raise the vertical resolution to its native 480, the horizontal will scale up to the square pixel equivalent, taking mod (and cropping) into account. I like this feature in WinGUI and use it quite often for web delivery. Using svn5675
