This is a bug for ffmpeg : we use ffmpeg's av_guess_sample_aspect_ratio to get video file aspect ratios, but this functions fails for the files you sent. Reproducible with ffmpeg -i Screen_recordings/2021-02-18\ 03-36-58.mkv The SAR (sample aspect ratior) is missing for the video stream. I'd recommend you open a bug there. Code is there https://ffmpeg.org/doxygen/2.7/libavformat_2utils_8c_source.html#l04188 Thank you Méven. Reported to ffmpeg devs: https://trac.ffmpeg.org/ticket/9293 I read ffmpeg upstream bug response. I see the issue some video files simply won't contain aspect ratio data. I guess that we can use the video size to compute the aspect ratio as it should be what video player would do. I made a MR to do that : https://invent.kde.org/frameworks/kfilemetadata/-/merge_requests/33 A video without aspect ratio is valid. The issue is with the encoder that did not provide one. |
Created attachment 139005 [details] test video files STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. download attached archive containing test video files 2. extract the downloaded archive to a location indexed by baloo 3. set details view mode in Dolphin 4. enable Aspect Ratio column OBSERVED RESULT empty Aspect Ratio column. Please see the attached screenshot. EXPECTED RESULT Aspect Ratio column should show the aspect ratio of the test video files SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Operating System: KDE neon Unstable Edition KDE Plasma Version: 5.22.80 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.83.0 Qt Version: 5.15.3 Graphics Platform: Wayland
