[SOLVED] Rescaling video resolution

Recently i downloaded a movie, lord of the rings, and the video resolution is 544*320, but the problem is that the video is stretched, which is not a really good view as you can see here:

so now i have to watch it by choosing the “zoom in by aspect ratio” in GOM Player which somehow perfectly stretches to it in the correct resolution, as you can see:

So, can someone tell me how I can resize the resolution of the video file[/img] instead of choosing functions like the one in GOM Player?
Answer #1
GOM or the video codec/filter have a “aspect ratio” option
try source, 16*9 or anamorphic as 544*320 is the correct aspect ratio, as the video file has black bars top & bottom


brightened the pics to show black bars
your top pic is full screen, your bottom pic is the correct aspect ratio as far as size is concerned
Answer #2
This problem is caused by the bars on the top and the bottom.
They are “hardcoded” in the video and this makes your video stretched while playing…
If i were you, i would reconvert that movie and i would crop the bars
Not the fastes solution, but the permament one
Answer #3
If you get ffdshow there are options to crop and resize images while playing. By the look of it, whoever encoded it made a bit of a mess of it and it would probably be easier to find a better rip.

Answer #6
Thank You !
Answer #7
You’d actually go through the trouble wasting 1-2 hours re-encoding it just to resize it to a 16:9 format?
It’s 2 clicks in Media Player Classic to get the correct aspect ratio, and in MPC you can set it so it ALWAYS uses that aspect ratio.
