No matter what I put in my NFO file as the aspect ratio, XBMC is using the aspect ratio of the encoded file [1920x1080], but my files are blu ray back ups and they have the black bars encoded into the file so XBMC reports the aspect ratio of 16:9 icon on the information screen for all of my movies after I play the file.
People suggested two ways how to fix this:
1. The long way: re-encode all your movies so that the black bars are actually stripped out of the file which I am not going to do.
2. Short way: Can't fix XBMC so mod the skin!
His solution to this was to include the aspect ratio in the folder name of the movie. Example: Batman Begins [2005] [2.40]
Then he went and modded the skin [Confluence] to grab the aspect ratio based on the information in the folder/file name.
and he says it works perfectly.
My question is how do you do this with Aeon nox skin? Also is their a way to tell XBMC to just use the aspect ratio in the info and not to change it after playing the file?
Please help this is only thing not working correctly and it is driving me nuts.
