Hey guys,
I have the problem, that when I rip my DVD/BluRay (of course just for personal use) often a very little part of the picure is missing. You can see a little black stripe in the border of the picture, as you can see in my picture. But if I insert the DVD/BluRay in my BluRay Player for the TV, the picture is clear. Do you know any solutions therefore?
Regards,
Jan
What do you mean? The 16 black pixels on the sides, 8 on each? If so, that's normal, that's a part of the video. TV standards are 704x480 and 704x576, but DVD resolutions are 720x480 and 720x576. Some DVDs are slightly stretched from 704 pixels to 720 pixels, some DVDs are slightly cropped and resized to 720x576, but most of them are 704 pixels wide + they have 16 pixels wide padding ( 8 + 704 + 8 = 720). The screenshot you posted has 6 pixels on the left and 10 on the right for some reason
I'm totally out of the loop with HD and bluray, but if it's the same as on VHS and DVD this is garbage from the "overscan" area, most TV's don't show that part of the picture, you can probably crop it off with simple software.
I'm assuming wembley is sourced from videotape and upscaled to BluRay, and they didn't centre it perfectly which is why, as pittrek points out, there's more blank on one side than the other.
Teletext data used to be stored in this area back in the day, there was once a creepy teddy toy that interacted with video tapes using informatioin put into this area too.
