Description

Currently the aspect ratio that mytharchive uses for titles is the same as the chaptermenuAspectRatio setting, if set. This does not make sense to me, for example says I want the chapter menus in 4:3 (because my broken DVD player always screws up 16:9 menus) this means that the title is specified as 4:3 as well even if it is 16:9. As such I have just removed the checking of chaptermenuAspectRatio from my version of the script - it just checks the title's actual aspect ratio instead. To me this seems like the right thing to do, so I thought I better submit it for your consideration.

Here is the patch - it looks more confusing that it is due to the indentation changes. It just removes the check of chaptermenuAspectRatio:

(In [14314]) When creating the xml file that is passed to DVDAuthor set the titles aspect ratio to that of the video and not the one chosen for the chapter menu.

Closes #3884.
