I am currently trying to rip a DVD-r with an unusual AR (26.5:16.5) which I had to set an Input Pixel Aspect Ratio of "other" and managed to get to 1.160:1, however there is a couple of pixels black border on the right hand side of the screen in the finished rip, but not in Gknot.

I have tried overcropping it, done 4 attempts so far and each one is the same.

Anyone got any ideas? If not then I think I'll have to release this version, it's for the LQ section anyway but I'd rather not release a poorly cropped rip if I can help it.

TIA

put it in manual and then crop to the desired effect. Gknot often misses 2 pixels on the left usually. Which is vital that you check.

You can load your avisynth scripts in any application remember, that includes nandub or virtual dub mod

This happened to me a bunch of times with one DVD. I just kept ripping it over and over, often overcropping, until one rip turned out okay. I'm still not sure what the problem was.

This is sorted now. I had already manually cropped it, so I tried loading the avs into Nandub, and this gave the same results. I also tried editing the avs with notepad and adding a bit more cropping but no success.

The fix was to uncheck "Follow ITU-R BT.601 Standard" in Gknot.

I assume the problem was that the DVD-r was poorly mastered, some scenes had a black border at the top, and some on the right. Without unchecking this it was possible to remove one or other border, but not both.

Sounds like an oddly mastered DVD if you had to crop the top and right of the picture. The ITU is usually for nonanamorphic rips at 4:3.

Heres a thread that may help.
