   Q & A:

1) How do I Bitstream TrueHD & DTS-HD Master audio From my PC to My surround Receiver?

   Part 1 - Setting up Sound / Bitstreaming in Windows (Only read and Use first Part about Windows):

2) So how can I watch your not cropped x264 rip in the so-called 2.35:1
   Anamorphic / Letterbox image, mate?

   First, I'm not any special expert on this aspect ratio thing regarding
   technicalities about anamorphic lenses, on how a pro DP obtains the 2.35:1
   aspect ratio or how a DP works with anamorphic or letterbox or the difference
   between anamorphic and letterbox images. If you want real expertise on
   the matter then use your powerfull friend Google. What really matters here
   is that the movie is shown in the correct aspect ratio on the telly!
   
   Second, we have Film Aspect Ratio = Letterbox, CinemaScope, Panavision etc. =
   2.35:1, 1.85:1, 1.78:1, 1.66:1 ect. Film Aspect Ratio is the ratio of the width
   of the visible area of the video/film frame to the height of the visible area.

   Then there's the "black bars". In reality, these "black bars" are actually
   unused areas of the image. These areas are black to allow for better contrast.
   The wrongly called "black bars" or the black unused areas is in fact part of the
   image! So if any part of the black unused areas is cropped / cut of the image
   then the original Aspect / Scope ratio is lost!

   And then we have Encoding Aspect Ratio. For example full-resolution 2.35:1
   anamorphic aspect ratio encoding is 2538x1080. Blu-Ray discs is 16:9
   (1920x1080) aspect ratio encoded. But the original Film Aspect Ratio
   is still 2.35:1 anamorphic / letterbox scope or 1.85:1 widescreen or whatever
   Film Aspect Ratio. All depending on which Film Aspect Ratio the Director
   of the film has chosen to use.                                                                                                                                                                                                                      
   So you have to differentiate between the two. What really matters here is that
   the movie is shown in the correct aspect ratio.

   Third, Yes I know that a Blu-Ray player cannot playback anamorphic / letterbox
   material (Film Aspect Ratio and Encoding Aspect Ratio) but the anamorphic /
   letterbox scope, as mentioned above, is still in the transfer/encode, so for
   this to work you have to rip the blu-Ray disc to PC, and play it back anamorphic
   /Letterbox from there (Film Aspect Ratio). Or just grab one of Grym's uncropped
   rips and use that for anamorphic / Letterbox playback from PC! Let's move on
   with the how's and do's of showing a correct 2.35:1 anamorphic /Letterbox aspect
   ratio shot image on your 16:9 tv screen (Film Aspect Ratio).

   You can watch the movie in original 2.35:1 Anamorphic / Letterbox Scope,
   like you do in the theater, by setting the aspect ratio in your software player
   to 2.35:1. Aka Panavision, Cinemascope, Metrovision ect (Anamorphic / Letterbox)
 
   Display setting on your flat screen you set to 1:1 pixel mapping or whatever the
   name is on your telly. On my own Pioneer Kuro LX5090H flat tv it's called
   'Dot by Dot'

   If set correct then the image on your 16:9 flat screen should look something
   like the screen croppings on these pictures:

   http://someimage.com/Q2le and this

   You got image / screen cropping like on the pictures?
   Now then please search 'Anamorphic Widescreen' in Youtube for more video
   reference.
 
   Ok, now try doing same playback procedure with a cropped so-called "2.35:1"
   1920x800 rip.

   ---
   
   If you want to watch 1.85:1 aspect ratio movies in the correct aspect ratio
   you then set the aspect ratio to 2.35:1, as well, and the image will have the
   "small" black bars.

   ---

   Aspect ratios on 16:9 flat tv (Display setting on tv set to 1:1 pixel mapping):

   1.33:1 - Black bars at sides of image (4:3) - Aka 1.37:1 Academy Standard

   1.78:1 - Full screen. Image fills whole of screen (16:9) - HDTV & Home Video

   1.85:1 - Black bars Top & Bottom of image (Small) - Movies, HDTV & Home Video

   2.35:1 - Black bars Top & Bottom of image (Big) - Aka 2.40:1 & Anamorphic Scope

3) Why don't You crop 2.35:1 Film Aspect Ratio Movies?
