Hmmm...

In my experience, most software and hardware media players read the 'video streams' aspect ratio signalling, not the containers.

I suggest you visit the encoders configuration settings and enter the ratio you require in the boxes provided: -




EDIT: I've just finished creating some 720x480 MPEG-4 AVC .mkv, .mp4 and .avi contained encodes using 'VirtualDub 2 v44282', and they all play at the correct aspect ratio on my OPPO UDP-203 hardware player, LG television, MPC-BE player, VLC player, Windows Media Player and my Android mobile phone
