info/errors in logfile

[hreintke]

LS,

I am doing some investigation to understand transcoding and found a lot of the message below in the logfile (also when nothing is transcoded to be viewed on TV).

These messages are in the 2014-08-14-14-09-54-MezzmoMediaServiceTranscoder.txt file.
What could be the cause of this ?
Where would I find additional info on this errors ?

Kind regards,

Herman Reintke

This error tells us that you have the "Adjust video aspect ratio with square pixels" checkbox selected in the Performance tab of the Device Settings dialog for your device. When selected, this checkbox tells Mezzmo to attempt to correct aspect ratio issues where your videos are not displayed with the correct aspect ratio on your TV screen. In the case of the error message, the original video does not have a valid aspect ratio, so the aspect ratio correction could not be performed. If you do not see any issues with the aspect ratio for your videos on your TV screen, then you can ignore this error message.
