Change aspect ratio without re-processing

[raphos]

Hi all

I need to change aspect ratio of a movie, but I dont want to full process the entire video stream ... Is it an easiest,faster way ?

NB: for reencoding a divx, do I have to make two passes again ?

Thanks a lot

Hi-

There are a number of players that can do it. ffdshow can do it. But if you want to change the AR of the video permanently, you'll have to reencode.

If you reencode, you don't have to run 2 passes, but the quality will be better if you do.

you can also use matroska and set the "display size" you want, without the need for reencoding
