This behaviour only with 720 PAL. All other scale option are fine!!!

Which version of xjadeo is that?
Please include the output of ''xjadeo --version''

The most likley cause of this is that either you have a version of xjadeo older than 0.7.5 and/or Ubuntu compiles xjadeo with libav instead of ffmpeg.

In any case, please file a problem with Ubuntustudio. We do not have control over what distribuions do.

or simply use Ardour from ardour.org which includes:

http://ardour.org/files/video-tools/xjadeo-i386-linux-gnu-v0.7.5.tgz

ready to go.

Sorry Robin. I forgot to mention. All tests were done with Ardour-3.3.1-dbg built from revision 3.3-1-gfc0053a (downloaded from ardour homepage) and if I understand it right in this case the included/shipped version of xjadeo and ffmpeg_harvid is used. I think it's not a jadeo problem its a ffmpeg problem.


xjadeo version 0.6.4 [ LTC JACK-SESSION POSIX-MQueue ]
 compiled with ffmpeg: AVFORMAT=0x351500 AVCODEC=0x352300
 MTC-MIDI: jack-midi alsa-sequencer portmidi alsa-raw (first listed is default)
 displays: Xv X11/imlib2(RGBA32)


I see that xjadeo is not shipped with ardour.

Ok today night I'll dig deeper into it :-)))

Thanx Robin for this cool feature!!!

mmh 0.6.4 is over 1 year old.

Please check /opt/Ardour-<VERSION>/bin/xjremote -v (xjadeo with remote control)

also does the imported video in
  .../session-folder/interchange/<session-name>/videofiles/
play with other players (e.g. mplayer)?
is the timeline affected, too or just the xjadeo?

PS. can you launch Ardour3 from the commandline, and when Importing the video enable the checkbox

  "Debug Mode: Print ffmpeg command and output to stdout"

There may be some clues in there.

Ok downloaded xjadeo v0.7.5. No change. I get the same result.

i)
@ubuntu-laptop:~$ /opt/Ardour-3.3.1-dbg/bin/xjremote --version
xjadeo version 0.7.4 scm-v0.7.4 [ LTC ]
 compiled with ffmpeg: AVFORMAT=0x363f68 AVCODEC=0x365c64
 MTC-MIDI: jack-midi (first listed is default)
 displays: Xv

ii) is the timeline affected, too or just the xjadeo?
no only the video in xjadeo (see shot uploaded)

iii) play with other players (e.g. mplayer)?
mplayer and vlc play the video correct

Cool.

Shouldn't xjadeo shipped with ardour like ffmpeg_harvid? Just to be sure what we have.

can you unzip the file and

Now it looks good.

Oh I got it: xjremote == xjadeo

 xjadeo can act as drop-in replacement for xjremote
(but not the other way 'round).

upstream xjremote is a remote-control wrapper. It allows to launch xjadeo and disconnect/reconnect from/to running xjadeo instances.

xjremote is useful if you run xjadeo
 a) on a dedicated machine
or
 b) on dedicated screen on the local machine

and want to keep xjadeo always running and never see the desktop of the machine.
