Aspect ratio is not saved when rendering

Hello, everyone!

When creating a new project, the aspect ratio was 16:9 (like the original file), but when rendering, the final file has a 5:4 aspect ratio. How can I fix it?
I would be grateful for any help.

I can not reproduce the problem you are seeing.  Which render format are you using? Perhaps it is changed due to that format requirements.  Here are the steps I took and they worked perfectly.

1) File-> new project

2) changed format to 16:9

3) loaded to Resources only a video of 16:9 aspect ratio

4) rendered using format ffmpeg/mp4 (h264.mp4)

Resulting file was also 16:9.  I also tried the same file BUT this time used the Settings->Format option to change the format to 4:3; did the render; and the resulting aspect ratio was as designated 4:3. 

Or perhaps you had another video loaded on another track that changed the format? 

Try this: right before you start the Render, check Settings->Format to make sure it read 16:9.

I also have no aspect ratio problem with rendering.
Could you provide more data? What filters did you use? What rendering profile did you use? Did you use the Camera/Projector tools? Do you use a proxy? ...

Could you, @rminavesi, tell us more info, please?

Thank you for your help. Yes, when using mp4, the aspect ratio is preserved. But I used container MKV (flac.mkv, ffv1.mkv), and that's where the problems arose, the aspect ratio is not saved.

Using MKV with the same parameters preserves the 16:9 aspect ratio when I test that too.  I used the program "mediainfo" to verify that and the results are shown below.  I started out with the default  $HOME/.bcast5/Cinelerra_rc file just to make sure that I had not introduced any specific settings.

@rminavesi, Could you check that your source video is not recorded with anamorphic format, please?
Anamorphic format doesn't use square pixels. What I know, FFV1 on mkv container don't care DAR (Display Aspect Ratio).
You can chech that using Mediainfo program.

Thanks @Rminavesi for the Mediainfo info!
Yes, this is an anamorphic format. Because 720/576=1.25 and DAR is 16/9=1.777.
SAR (Storage Aspect Ratio) is different from DAR and you have to use a workaround.

You can see an excellent workaround in "Cinelerra for Grandma" site by Raffaella Traniello:

I hope it help.

Thanks Igor for explaining this.  I have added this usage hint to the manual.  (Andrea please review the checked in change and correct any mistakes).
