Thus, the file that I worked for hours on is ultimately unplayable in Plex. Unfortunately, I have no editor which will pull out the “original display aspect ratio” field. It also appears that VLC media player and Plex preferentially read this field over the “display aspect ratio” fields. Curious, I ran each file (the direct DVD rip, the file output by Hybrid, and the file output by Topaz AI) through MediaInfo and found that Topaz AI was adding a metadata field called “original display aspect ratio” in this case, the value of that field was 0.023. This was not corrected, even after I added the correct values for a 2.10 display aspect ratio to the MKV metadata with a separate tool. When the resultant MKV is ran through VLC or through Plex media player, the show is unwatchable, because it is flattened with what looks like a display aspect ratio < 1. After ripping a video sample from DVD, I de-interlaced in Hybrid, before upscaling in Topaz Video AI. I’ve discovered a problem in the manner in which Plex determines the display aspect ratio for MKV files.
