Width and Height wrong on mov file

[DonMoir]

This file is from ticket #126.

​http://sms.pangolin.com/temp/r-2002-30.mov

The reported width and height from ffmpeg is: 352x288

The real width and height is: 320x240

Plays correctly in VLC and QuickTime. MediaInfo also reports the correct width and height. Playback is incorrect for ffmpeg related code because of width/height problem.

Are there any updates or pointers regarding this bug? We are experiencing this bug as well with a number of videos - QuickTime sees a different (smaller) set of dimensions than ffmpeg sees and so when it's run through ffmpeg we get black and grey bars to make up the difference. I can't provide sample videos at the moment because they're proprietary but I can verify that the samples attached to this ticket show the same behavior we are seeing with our videos.

If there's any way I can help with debugging, diagnosing, or reproducing this I would love to do so as several of our users are affected by this.

I'm in the process of learning about whether the affected users share a certain authoring tool/technique/settings.

[Zach Ember]

The affected videos all seem to be h.263.
