[Bug 152279] Re: Totem gets aspect ratio wrong

 

This bug is also present in Ubuntu 14.10, for me. I have dual monitors
with an NVIDIA GeForce 9800 GT, the binary NVIDIA driver version
331.113. Pretty unbelievable that this bug has lasted 8 years....

Title:
  Totem gets aspect ratio wrong

Status in totem package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: totem

  I use a pivot monitor. When I rotate the screen with xrandr -o left or
  Grandr, totem gets the aspect ratio wrong. For instance a 4:3 film is
  shown as 3:4, that means higher than wide. It is also not possible to
  correct the aspect ratio from the GUI menu. New video thumbnails are
  also distorted, however in the other direction: They become much wider
  than hig.

  Kaffeine shows the same buggy behaviour as Totem, while VLC doesn't.
  VLC gets the aspect ratio right. This bug was also not there in
  Feisty.
