Requesting the addition of aspect ratio displayed for video. Example on how and why:
I have a movie with two different formats, 1) 1920x1080 and 2) 1280x544.
What would be useful is to see
1) 16:9 or 1.78:1 or simply 1.78 (DVD / HDTV wide standard)
2) 2.35 (cinema standard).
Without getting real technical, just labeling "Aspect Ratio" will likely suffice I believe. Otherwise we get into some real technical stuff with DAR, SAR, etc.
It would also be useful to have this data listed for the movie spec, IMDB has this, but I do not believe it is there anywhere for TMDB. For this specific movie example, the movie spec states 2.35, so in my collection I am looking to see why I have a duplicate of this movie... having one original and one modified.
I would assume the same would apply to those keeping a full screen and wide screen copy of the same movie. I propose as there has been addition of edition of a movie to help differentiate releases and copies.
EDIT: Wanted to add that this information is displayed within Kodi when viewing a movie in library, and I would assume the same for a tv show.
