I just tried to render a test based on this report from the forum: https://forum.kde.org/viewtopic.php?f=265&t=136647&p=365376#p365376 If you activate proxy on 16:9 footage and then render, the result which should be 16:9 is maintaining the 4:3 aspect ratio of the proxy. I am using today's compiled sources. Would be good to fix before 16.08.2 release. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Add a file and create a proxy of it. 2. Add it to the timeline. 3. Render the project.
I know that this has been an issue for some time. As I just tested it on my system using recent git master, I cannot reproduce it anymore. Strange. My proxy profile "MPEG" says this: -s 640x480 -g 5 -qscale 6 -ab 128k -vcodec mpeg2video -acodec mp2 Which looks like 4:3, but upon enabling the proxy, it correcty shows in 16:9 ... can you please make sure you don't have any stale proxies laying around by purging them in your project?
Farid, are you on git master or on Applications/16.08? I tested using git master.

I have tried using both profiles and both have this issue. I tested using new files.
I cannot reproduce. Can you please attach a project file that produces this problem?

thanks jb! :)
The issue was produced in some cases when the video file reported an incorrect aspect ratio. This can be fixed by changing the proxy profile like this: replace this part "-s 640x480" with: "-vf scale=640:-1" This tells ffmpeg to keep aspect ratio
