Mencoder chooses a wrong aspect ratio when I compress DVD

Description

Summary of the bug:

  • I use archlinux 64 bits,
  • version of mencoder : SVN-r37379

I try to rip a DVD with mencoder SVN-r37379 and I notice that the aspect ratio of the avi file is incorrect, it doesn't respect the ratio of the DVD ( for example 1.67 instead of 2.35 ),

my command line for ripping Star Wars 3 DVD ( ratio aspect : 2.35 ) with a crop and x264 codec :

mencoder video.vob -o video.avi -ovc x264 -x264encopts crf=22:preset=medium:tune=film -nosound -vf crop=720:432:0:72,scale,harddup -nosub

I get a wrong aspect ratio when I want to read "video.avi", the aspect ratio created by mencoder is 1.67 but it's a wrong aspect ratio, the aspect ratio should be 2.35 in the header of the avi file,

with older versions of mencoder this same command line gave correct result about the aspect ratio, so why with mencoder SVN-r37379 I get a wrong aspect ratio ?
