| | Posted: | | | | A new example for this is Interstellar: 1080p High Definition 16:9 Variabel 2.40:1 and 1.78:1 (IMAX®-Sequenzen). So, do we enter 1.78:1 or 2.40:1 in Videoformats or do we leave it empty?
Thanks,

We enter Interstellar the same way as The Dark Knight and The Dark Knight Rises. | | | | Don't confuse while the film is playing with when the film is played. [Ken Cole, DVD Profiler Architect] |

We enter Interstellar the same way as The Dark Knight and The Dark Knight Rises. ... and which way is that? I just looked at my collection, Rises says 1.78, DK says 2.4.  I do have exclusives for both, but can't lookup other versions by title, as that function does not work anymore on my desktop despite re-installing 5 times.   Don't feel like hunting down upc #'s online, so how should these read? |

| | Posted: | | | | Don't feed the trolls!  Back on topic: AFAIK there is no proper way of registering this in every detail. In any case you can tick Widescreen. Personally I would go for the ratio most used in the film. | | | | Last edited: by dee1959jay |

| | Posted: | | | | I think you should choose the most "open" format that is used. In this case someone who is watching with a projector will get the whole image. In the other case he might lose information because he's projecting in 2,40:1 and the image gets cropped at top and bottom. | | | Recently bought films:

| | Posted: | | | | Unfortunately, since we define Fullscreen as 1.33:1 there is no way to do this. If the program had recognized Fullscreen as 16:9 for Blu-ray, we could simply have ticked both Fullscreen and Widescreen. | | | | First registered: February 15, 2002 |

Although I like the idea behind it, that would have opened the gate for quite some ambiguity. How about "Fullscreen SD" (being 1,33:1) and "Fullscreen HD" (being 1,78:1)? | | | | Mithi's little XSLT tinkering - the power of XML --- DVD-Profiler Mini-Wiki |

And we don't have a "Fullscreen" option. We have a "Full Frame" option (that has something to do with filling the frame of 35mm film which has aspect ratio: 4:3). |

| | Posted: | | | | Sorry, I meant Full Frame. Ticking Full Frame automatically gives an 1.33:1 aspect ratio, at least according to the program's icon graphics.
But then we have material on HD that actually is 1.33:1 so making Full Frame HD default to 16:9 wouldn't work either. | | | | First registered: February 15, 2002 |
