-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Grym's mkv's is encoded in 1920x1080 res. @ 2.35:1, 1.85:1, 1.66:1, 1.33:1 film aspect ratio. Just like a retail Blu-Ray is! This will NEVER change, so don't ask! If you don't like that then go download the title you want somewhere else! The reason why Grym's mkv's are encoded this way? Read the Q & A. Thanks!

Q & A:


So how can I watch your not cropped x264 rip in the so-called 2.35:1
Anamorphic/Letterbox image, mate?

---

First, what really matters in this Q & A text is that the movie is shown in the
correct aspect ratio on the telly! My English is second language so bear with me.

Ok second, we have Film Aspect Ratio = Letterbox, CinemaScope, PanaVision
etc. = 2.35:1, 1.85:1, 1.78:1, 1.66:1, 1.33:1 ect. Film Aspect Ratio is the
ratio of the width of the visible area of the video/film frame to the height of
the visible area, measuring from a 4:3 TV Display or from the Film it self.
All the Cinematic Aspect Ratios/Framings mentioned just above apply to the
HD resolutions 1080p (NOT 800p) and 720p (NOT 544p) and to the standard
resolutions as well, being the DVD resolutions 720px576p (PAL) & 640x480p (NTSC).

Then there's the "black bars". In reality, these "black bars" are actually
unused areas of the image. These areas are black to allow for better contrast.
The wrongly called "black bars" is in fact part of the image! So if any part of
the black unused areas is cropped/cut of the image then the original
aspect/scope/letterbox ratio is lost! That goes for all BD/DVD resolutions!

And then we have Encoding Aspect Ratio. For example full-resolution 2.35:1
anamorphic aspect ratio encoding is 2538x1080. Blu-Ray discs is 16:9 (1920x1080 -
1.85:1) aspect ratio encoded. But the original Film Aspect Ratio is still
2.35:1 anamorphic/letterbox scope or 1.85:1 widescreen or what ever
film aspect ratio. All depending on what Film Aspect Ratio/Framing the Director
has chosen to use.

So you have to differentiate between the two.

Third, Yes I know that a Blu-Ray player cannot playback anamorphic/letterbox
material (Film Aspect Ratio and Encoding Aspect Ratio) like the DVD player
could, but the anamorphic/letterbox scope, as mentioned above, is still in the
transfer/encode, so for this to work you have to rip the Blu-Ray disc to PC,
and play it back anamorphic/letterbox from there (Film Aspect Ratio). Or just
grab one of Grym's uncropped x264 rips and use that for anamorphic/letterbox
playback from PC. Let's move on with the how's and do's of showing a correct
2.35:1 anamorphic/letterbox aspect ratio shot image on your 16:9 tv screen.

You can watch the movie in original 2.35:1 anamorphic/letterbox scope,
like you do in the theater, by setting the aspect ratio in your software player
to 2.35:1. Aka Panavision, Cinemascope, Metrovision ect (anamorphic/letterbox)

Example:

Start up MPC-HC. Open a 2.35:1 Grym mkv encode or retail BD 2.35:1 m2ts file in
MPC-HC. Right click in center of MPC-HC screen. Choose 'Video Frame'.
Choose 'Override Aspect Ratio'. Choose '235:100' (2.35:1). A lot of software
players has a aspect ratio setup more or less like this, so with a tiny bit of
effort anyone should be able.

---

Display Aspect Ratio setting on your 16:9 flat screen you set to 1:1 pixel
mapping or whatever the name is on your telly. On my own Pioneer Kuro LX5090H
16:9 flat TV it's called Dot by Dot

If set correct then the image on your 16:9 flat screen should look like the
Aspect Ratio Images shown just below in the 'Aspect Ratios on 16:9 flat TV'
paragraph.

Ok, now try using same playback procedure with a cropped so-called "2.35:1"
1920x800 rip/file. 1920x800 cannot be 2.35:1 on a tv screen. It's impossible!
On a correct set tv screen it get's stretched to 1.85:1, because part of the
black areas are cropped of.

2.35:1 looking like this:

and then 1920x800p cropped to this (1.85:1 Framing/Aspect Ratio):

If you want to watch 1.85:1 aspect ratio movies in the correct aspect ratio
you then set the aspect ratio to 2.35:1, as well, and the image will have the
"small" black bars.

Aspect ratios on 16:9 flat TV (Display Aspect Ratio setting on TV set to 1:1
pixel mapping and resolution is 1080p):

1.33:1 - Black bars on all sides of image (4:3) - Aka 1.37:1 Academy Standard
Image: http://someimage.com/rLrxESc

1.66:1 - Black bars on all sides of image (Small L+R) - Movies
Image: http://someimage.com/1ck9wcT

1.78:1 - Full screen. Image fills whole of screen (16:9) - HDTV & Home Video
Image: http://someimage.com/BqgDoMB

1.85:1 - Black bars Top & Bottom of image (Small) - Movies, HDTV & Home Video
Image: http://someimage.com/90ZxXoJ

2.35:1 - Black bars Top & Bottom of image (Big) - Aka 2.40:1 & Anamorphic Scope

2.35:1 on a theater screen: http://someimage.com/aopL0DM


Why don't You crop 2.35:1 Film Aspect Ratio Movies?
