This is a general behavior of embywith CA in addition and I can reproduce it with any of my series where is the season-poster.jph in this kind aspect ratio.

And it is not retricted to the web app! My app at my LG tv show the same behavior.

take a look:

the filesystem shows

the web app shows

the LG tv shows

This was an exaple where the aspect ratio of the original season-poster.jpg produce a CD looking shape.

Here comes an example where the aspect ratio of the original season-poster.jpg produce a DVD looking shape. emby has not been restartet and CA settings have not been changed!

File system:

As you can see, it is not possible to get shapes with correct aspect ratio even is you change the original images whitch are used as season-poster.

Okay, I think the web and LG apps are not taking the exact shape and, instead, trying to choose a shape based on a "best guess" and those BD covers are being interpreted as closer to square than DVD.

If you choose a CA treatment that doesn't have a "frame" (e.g. MetroCase) I bet you get closer to proper ratios.

@Luke will have to confirm my theory on what those apps are doing.
