Improved precision in fractional types in core me #2070

Open plondino opened 5 months ago

plondino commented 5 months ago

I have a QuickTime file where the PAR is 320/253 (see attached) and there’s no easy way to reconstruct the original precision since MediaInfo only reports 1.265. I know the file is supposed to be exactly 16:9 (1.7777...) but I can only get the calculated value of 1.778027777777778. Ideally MediaInfo would:

a. Fix the PAR to display its full precision as a fraction type b. Support more comprehensive reworking of the underlying library to store and display more precise values for core media types (frame rate, aspect ratios, etc).
