Barry Lyndon

Is this movie 4:3 or 16:9?

The back says it is a "matted" widescreen, but MPC and MediaInfo tell me it is 4:3. I tried encoding it as 4:3 and cropped the black bars and when it plays back it is closer to a 16:9 (just a few height pixels difference between default and 16:9 in MPC).

Anyone know what the deal is with this movie?

It is matted widescreen and it is encoded as 4:3. It's 1.66:1.

Hmm how do you think I should setup MeGUI's Input DAR for this? It tells me ITU 4:3 1.3672 NTSC when I load it.

I don't use MeGUI. Someone else will have to help. The DAR of the DVD is 4:3, though.
