Title:
totem fails to recognize mkv-header crop values
Status in Totem:
Expired
Status in totem package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
MKV-file headers may contains values to be used for players affecting
top-, left-, right-, and bottom-pixels cropping. Totem does not
currently recognize those header values, and just ignores them.
This can be demonstrated using the mkvmerge GUI program and its header
editor to fiddle with such values, and them running the resulting
files through totem. Another player than totem (VLC) was tried, which
recognized those values, and therefore cropped the video upon playing
to remove the annoying border flickering that was experienced in that
given file, without the need for the stream to be reencoded, and
either suffering from a deterioration in quality, or becoming huge
through lossless reencoding. (Consider this as an argument for the
pertinence of this bug.)
This bug can be experienced under Precise, using the as-of-current
latest build of totem.
