following up on this, I'm pretty sure it's a bug in vlc. the IFO file is set to 16x9, but the VOB is set to 4x3. Per discussion online, it seems DVD players are supposed to follow the IFO, not the VOB mediainfo from IFO $ mediainfo VTS_05_0.IFO General Complete name : VTS_05_0.IFO Format : DVD Video Format profile : Program File size : 42.0 KiB Duration : 46 min 21 s Overall bit rate mode : Variable Overall bit rate : 124 b/s Video ID : 224 (0xE0) Format : MPEG Video Format version : Version 2 Duration : 46 min 21 s Bit rate mode : Variable Width : 720 pixels Height : 480 pixels Display aspect ratio : 16:9 Frame rate : 29.970 (29970/1000) FPS Standard : NTSC Compression mode : Lossy <snip> but from VOB $ mediainfo VTS_05_1.VOB General Complete name : VTS_05_1.VOB Format : MPEG-PS File size : 1 024 MiB Duration : 21 min 59 s Overall bit rate mode : Variable Overall bit rate : 6 507 kb/s Video ID : 224 (0xE0) Format : MPEG Video Format version : Version 2 Format profile : Main@Main Format settings : CustomMatrix / BVOP Format settings, BVOP : Yes Format settings, Matrix : Custom Format settings, GOP : M=3, N=15 Format settings, picture structure : Frame Duration : 21 min 59 s Bit rate mode : Variable Bit rate : 5 993 kb/s Maximum bit rate : 3 500 kb/s Width : 352 pixels Height : 480 pixels Display aspect ratio : 4:3 Frame rate : 29.970 (30000/1001) FPS Standard : NTSC Color space : YUV Chroma subsampling : 4:2:0 Bit depth : 8 bits Scan type : Interlaced Scan order : Top Field First Compression mode : Lossy Bits/(Pixel*Frame) : 1.184 Time code of first frame : 00:00:00:00 Time code source : Group of pictures header GOP, Open/Closed : Closed Stream size : 943 MiB (92%) VLC doesn't seem to respect the IFO's aspect ratio flag and is just using the VOBs.
