[Bug 152279] Re: [Gutsy] Totem gets aspect ratio wrong
This issues affects me. I'm on latest of all packages, and playing videos on a rotated screen and the aspect ratio is screwed. Playing videos on my normal laptop LCD is fine. I'll go through the history now and provide any info that's been asked for. If there's anything else anyone needs to identify the cause of this bug - happy to provide further diagnostics. ** Changed in: totem (Ubuntu) Status: Invalid = Confirmed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/152279 Title: [Gutsy] Totem gets aspect ratio wrong To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/totem/+bug/152279/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Does it happen if you play the video using gst-launch-0.10 playbin uri=file:///path/to/video? - No - the video plays fine when played like this: What videocard and driver do you use? - AMD/ATI] Whistler [Radeon HD 6630M/6650M/6750M/7670M/7690M] - i915 driver Current xrandr status: $ xrandr -q Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 2566 x 1920, maximum 32767 x 32767 LVDS1 connected 1366x768+0+432 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 344mm x 194mm 1366x768 60.0*+ 40.1 1360x768 59.8 60.0 1024x768 60.0 800x60060.3 56.2 640x48059.9 VGA1 connected primary 1200x1920+1366+0 left (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 518mm x 324mm 1920x1200 60.0*+ 1920x1080 60.0 + 1600x1200 60.0 1680x1050 60.0 1280x1024 60.0 1280x960 60.0 1024x768 60.0 800x60060.3 640x48060.0 720x40070.1 HDMI1 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) DP1 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) VIRTUAL1 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/152279 Title: [Gutsy] Totem gets aspect ratio wrong To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/totem/+bug/152279/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 152279] Re: [Gutsy] Totem gets aspect ratio wrong
This problem isn't gone, and it's not a support issue. It is a bug. I have pinpointed the problem, and figured out how to fix it, at least temporarily. I'm running UNR Jaunty, with all current updates (Totem 2.26.1). gst-launch displayed the video properly before the fix, VLC displayed it properly before the fix, Totem did not before the fix. I do not have Xine or totem-xine installed. This is with totem-gstreamer, like it's supposed to be out of the box. The problem exists when a computer HAS BEEN connected to a second monitor. I sometimes dual-head my netbook with my TV (which has a D-SUB input) to watch streaming video on my TV. Even after disconnecting the TV, the second screen is still configured with a different aspect ratio and is therefore interfering with Totem's ability to get the aspect ratio correct. In Jaunty, head to System - Preferences - Display (In previous version, I believe Display is labeled Screen Resolution or Screens, though I don't know if this bug was patched in earlier distributions and has regressed in Jaunty, possibly due to the new X server?) and set the Mirror Screens option to correct this behavior. This is obviously not great for LEAVING your system dual-headed, but if you HAVE HAD it connected to a second screen this problem will persist afterwards, and changing this option will fix it. This is, in my opinion, a bug. Totem should be able to adjust the aspect ratio based on that of the screen that it's displaying on.

I have a similar problem. Ever since I started using compiz, totem gets the apect ratio wrong. Totem-gstreamer, totem-xine, all get the aspect ratio inverted (3:4 instead of 4:3).

[Bug 152279] Re: [Gutsy] Totem gets aspect ratio wrong
I have the same problem. It occurs when using a secondary display. Xine- based players think the second display's aspect ratio is the same as the default display's. I'm using twinview and have xorg configured so that the resolution 1280x720 is displayed on the secondary monitor and resolution 1680x1050 is displayed on the primary monitor. The monitor that isn't used is set to null. I achieve this using specific metamodes. This problem was already fixed in feisty, but has now reappeared in gutsy. -- [Gutsy] Totem gets aspect ratio wrong https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/152279 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 152279] Re: [Gutsy] Totem gets aspect ratio wrong on rotated screens
The problem is not resolved. While gst-launch gets the aspect ratio correct all the time, totem doesn't. When set to automatic, it distorts most but not all films from 4:3 to something super-wide like 8:3 (estimated, but wider than 16:9). Manual setting of the aspect ratio to 4:3 sometimes helps, sometimes doesn't. This has nothing to do with rotation, so we can change the title of the bug. ** Summary changed: - [Gutsy] Totem gets aspect ratio wrong on rotated screens + [Gutsy] Totem gets aspect ratio wrong -- [Gutsy] Totem gets aspect ratio wrong https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/152279 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 152279] Re: [Gutsy] Totem gets aspect ratio wrong on rotated screens
I tried gst-launch, and it worked fine. After that, now Totem also seems to work fine. However, some video thumbnails still get distorted when being produced, namely they are much wider than high. -- [Gutsy] Totem gets aspect ratio wrong on rotated screens https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/152279 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I am using the Nvidia driver on a GeForce FX 5200. At the moment I cannot rotate the screen at all, neither with xrandr nor with Grandr, although xorg.conf has not changed.
