Yes, I can confirm in the exif metadata:

Code Select Expand

SensorWidth 5920
SensorHeight 3950

And looking at RAWTherapee shows 5788x3862 as you say.

So including file properties (5760x3840) and the MLV generated by RAW2MLV (5792x3870), now we have four different values and none of them match. I'm sorry to say it, but now I am more confused than ever.

You are also confusing CR2 and MLV.

The only data coming off the camera card is the .CR2 file. The MLV is generated by RAW2MLV.

It grabs its contents from liveview buffer and that is 5792x3870.

How is this possible? Are you saying the contents from the liveview buffer is stored inside the .CR2 file?

I'm sorry for the trouble, I'm just trying to understand the process to ensure IQ is preserved through each step. If you say it is all correct and as expected I will trust you.

I can confirm that the .CR2 raw files show 5760x3840 in file properties. After transcode and import, MLV APP shows 5792x3870. It would surprise me if there are spare pixels hiding in the raw file that are not reflected in the file properties. At the same time, I can't see any obvious artifacts in the stretched image, so it at least does not look bad. It is a mystery to me where those extra pixels are coming from. Maybe RAW2MLV is resampling.

A single .CR2 is enough to reproduce this result, and I am including one here.

I am using Windows 10 and MLV App v1.14.

I am trying to make a time lapse using MLV App's Transcode and Import feature. The input files are raw images from my 5D3 with full 5760x3840 resolution (3:2). However, after import, the canvas shown in the Transformation tab becomes 5792x3870 (Clip Information also shows 5792x3870). So not only has the resolution changed, but the aspect ratio has also been subtly altered.

I expected the canvas to be the original 5760x3840 resolution. Is this a bug, or is there something I am not understanding about the RAW2MLV process?

I havent had a camera with ML yet (40D and 650D) so I haven't had a chance to evaluate the features. But I am most excited to use focus peaking and zebra stripes.High bit rate, iso override and zoom mode in video are not useful if its out of focus or improperly exposed.
