Hi,
I am trying to make a playlist with my 2.35:1 movies. Is it possible to make this list?
i tried the option: video aspect is not 16:9 (or 16.9) but no movies are shown in the list.
Also if i use video aspect is 2.35 nothing happens.
on this page i see that it has to use a number:

But how?

4:3 aspect would be 1.33 etc...
So the rule would be like 'video aspect is less that 1.34' [note: if you use "is" 1.33 you get zero] (I guess the math is not exact) and if you use '1.33 as less than' you get less videos... I just tried it and with the 1.34 figure I got (387 videos) with 1.33 I got (154 videos) and our favourite "is" got nothing. Try some different figures... What I'd like is a smartplaylist to pull all my B&W films
awesome
it works now

me again,
xbmc crashed so i needed a reinstall. Now the playlist settings are gone
I want to filter again my 2.35:1 movies but i can't remember the filters :S
When i test it with a movie (MediaInfo: Display aspect ratio: 2.40:1) and set the filter to:
video aspect greater than 2.35, nothing shows up in the list......... why
:S

I'm too lazy tonight. Here's one of mine.. paste it as B&W 4_3 Aspect SD.xsp and stick it in C:\Users\Paulus\AppData\Roaming\XBMC\userdata\playlists\video
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes" ?>
<smartplaylist type="movies">
<name>B&W 4_3 Aspect HD</name>
<match>all</match>
<rule field="path" operator="contains">
<value>V:\B&W\</value>
</rule>
<rule field="videoaspect" operator="lessthan">
<value>1.38</value>
</rule>
<rule field="videoresolution" operator="greaterthan">
<value>719</value>
</rule>
</smartplaylist>

i dont know what i am doring wrong/missing but i can't get it fixed
can't find the settings i used before to display my 2:35 & 2.40 movies.
Nothing shows up logical after change the aspact values :S
edit: found the "bug". The aspact ratio of the movies is only vissible to xbmc once you played/started the movie. So when there is a new movie (like now with clean xbmc install) i need to start the movie (1 second). stop the movie and now xbmc knows the ratio. Also showing the media flags now. And the playlist is filled
time to start all the movies
