Thanks for anyone who took the time to at least give it some thought or not. id rather not have to convert etc just rip as pure as possible but allowing playback in 16:9 ? does anyone have any suggestions at all ?. I know i probs should have posted to makemkv forums but for some reason it wont allow my IP address to register and cannot find a contact or any other kind of assistance in forums anywhere. YET the DVDs that i have ripped, most of them just default automatically to 16:9 upon playback ( i know its kinda not right forcing a 4:3 into 16:9 but i detest the bars on the side even more) and neither VLC or MPC will adjust the video to force it to be 16:9. mkv files they all play in 4:3 with the black bars on the side. using MAKEMKV to just rip as pure as possible and the problem is thus, once the disc is analysed MAKEMKV identifies all of the video streams as having an aspect ratio of 16:9. I am fulfilling a promise to my younger self to one day have all simpsons episodes not more than a few clicks away and accessible at all times ,Īlmost there however have hit a snag with the blu ray from season 13 onwards.
