4:3 (960x720) Shown Under SD Filter

[jhoff80 94]

A movie of mine is showing under the SD filter, despite being 960x720.

 

It reads the resolution right in Media Info though:

 

 

I assume maybe it's going by the horizontal resolution when applying that filter or something, I don't know.

HD tag is applied to files with a minimum width of 1280. I had the same issue before.

It should be 1200 to give a little wiggle room but, yes, we key off of the horizontal resolution because the vertical resolution will vary with aspect ratio.

Ok, but shouldn't the aspect ratio be used as a factor as well to detirmine if something should be labelled HD or not?

 

960x720 at 4:3 is HD, and so is 1280x528 at 2,4:1

[ebr 16169]

Actually, I think the technical definition of HD is at least a 16x9 aspect ratio as well.

 

What content do you have that is 720 and 4:3?

I don't, the the topic starter has, according to his screenshot. I'm not sure about the 16:9 requirement, early (plasma) HD televisions actualy used 1024x768 and streched it to 16:9 (non-square pixels) and were sold as HD.
