Q & A:

1. How do I Bitstream TrueHD & DTS-HD Master audio From my PC to My surround Receiver?

2. How can I watch your so-called non cropped rip in your so-called 2.35:1 Anamorphic Widescreen image, mate?

   First, we have Film Aspect Ratio = Letterboxing, CinemaScope, Panavision = 2.35:1, 1.85:1, 1.78:1 ect. Film Aspect Ratio is the ratio of the width of the visible area of the video/film frame to the height of the visible area.

   Then there's the "black bars". In reality, these "black bars" are actually unused areas of the screen. The areas are black to allow for better contrast. The "black bars" or the unused areas is part of the image! So if any part of the black unused areas is cropped of then the original aspect ratio is lost!

   And then we have Encoding Aspect Ratio. For example full-resolution 2.35:1 anamorphic aspect ratio encoding is 2538x1080. Blu-Ray discs is 16:9 (1920x1080) aspect ratio encoded. But the original Film Aspect Ratio (Anamorphic Lens) is still 2.35:1 anamorphic scope (letterbox) or 1.85:1 widescreen or whatever Film Aspect Ratio. All depending on which Film Aspect Ratio the Director of the film has chosen to use.

   So you have to differentiate between the two. What really matters here is that the movie is shown in the correct aspect ratio (Film Aspect Ratio).

   Second, Yes I know that a Blu-Ray player cannot playback anamorphic material (Film Aspect Ratio and Encoding Aspect Ratio) but the anamorphic scope (Film Aspect Ratio), as mentioned above, is still in the transfer/encode, so for this to work you have to rip the blu-Ray disc to PC, and play it back anamorphic from there (Film Aspect Ratio). Or just grab one of Grym's uncropped rips and use that for anamorphic playback from PC! Let's move on with the how's and does of showing a correct 2.35:1 anamorphic aspect ratio on your 16:9 tv screen (Film Aspect Ratio).

   You can watch the movie in original 2.35:1 Anamorphic Widescreen / Scope (Anamorphic Lens), like you do in the theater, by setting the aspect ratio in your software player to 2.35:1. Aka Panavision, Cinemascope, Metrovision ect.

   Turn off any automatic or manual 16:9 cropping on your TV - if any and if used. Display setting on your flat screen you set to 1:1 pixel mapping or whatever the name is on your telly. On my own Pioneer Kuro LX5090H flat tv it's called 'Dot by Dot'

   If set correct then the image on your 16:9 flat screen should look something like the screen croppings on these links:

   You got image like in the link? Now please search 'Anamorphic Widescreen' in Youtube for more reference.

   Ok, now try do same playback procedure with a so-called "2.35:1" 1920x800 rip.

   ---

   If you want to watch 1.85:1 aspect ratio movies in the correct aspect ratio you then set the aspect ratio to 2.35:1, as well, and the image will have the "small" black bars.

   ---

   Aspect ratios on 16:9 flat tv (Display setting on tv set to 1:1 pixel mapping):

   1.33:1 - Black bars at sides of image (4:3) - Aka 1.37:1 Academy Standard

   1.78:1 - Full screen. Image fills whole of screen (16:9) - HDTV & Home Video

   1.85:1 - Black bars Top & Bottom of image (Small) - Movies, HDTV & Home Video

   2.35:1 - Black bars Top & Bottom of image (Big) - Aka 2.40:1 & Anamorphic Scope
