yup, xbmc will use the actual AR from the stream once you play it.
it'll overwrite the value in db that was initially taken from the .nfo file.

My question is why does it do this? It seems really silly to have the stream overwrite the data in the nfo. Because then whats the point of having the setting in the nfo?

Really wish this would be changed. I am seeing more and more people who are using things like makemkv to just dump the disk to a mkv file with no re-encoding. It would be nice if XBMC displayed the proper aspect ratio for the movie.

Hi there,

Could anyone see my related post here, regarding the overwriting of the aspect ratios that XBMC does in the NFOs. You may be able to help.

Thanks, CF
