2.40 content being transcoded to 16:9
I have a movie that I am streaming from UMS to VLC on an android box and it keeps getting transcoded to 16:9 even though I have KeepAspectRatio set to true in the configuration file.
How can I configure UMS so that it does not transcode and also maintains 2.40 aspect ratio?
Additionally there is a receiver in the configuration that can handle all the audio/video formats.

Re: 2.40 content being transcoded to 16:9
I can see UMS is doing something with that option as the transcoding command includes
VLC should be good with playing most formats so you should not need to transcode it.
I can see UMS is transcoding because of the aspect ratio option set in the conf
This is not an option I have used but have you tried to remove KeepAspectRatio and KeepAspectRatioTranscoding from that conf to let UMS stream that video unaltered and have VLC handle the aspect ratio?
Is that conf one you made? Have you tried the VLC-for-desktop.conf one or basing your conf off that?
Code: Select all
pad=iw:iw/(16/9):0:(oh-ih)/2

File "Fast.X.2023.1080p.10bit.WEBRip.6CH.x265.HEVC-PSA.mkv" will not be streamed because the renderer needs us to add borders to change the aspect ratio from 2.40:1 to 16/9.
