Description
The bottom green line is not visible when the file is natively played but the ffmpeg transcoded version it shows up. I realize the green line is essentially due to the 16 rule, and may not be transcoded into the file itself but whatever metadata issue is still a problem. VLC does show a separate display resolution and actual resolution for HLS encoded files, but the bar still appears. If you tell it to livestream at the same width/height of the original program it doesn't happen. If however you do (as far as I can tell) any other resolution the issue crops up. Even if you target a multiple of 16 (say 1280x720) it shows up. Halfing it (so 1920x1080 to 960x540) shows up.
Tested playback using VLC and a few other players.
Interestingly this is not TV specific either, after transcoding some videos it also appears there.
