Yup. MediaInfo 18.05 reports this for a quick test DCP in 4k. I see the same there, also with MXFs created with 2.11.17, and it happens both in Interop and SMPTE.

It looks normal for a commercial 4k Trailer created with (sigh...) Fraunhofer.

I have two versions of MediaInfo Installed (both from the App store). I was never inclined enough to find out why these two exist, when the later version received regular updates. Anyway, my old version shows correct Width/Height for 4k DCP-o-matic DCPs, while the latest version reports these strange flags pixel0 and original height/string. But wondering wether that's a bug in MediaInfo?

I have another basic MXF tool that displays

width=3996
height=2160
coded_width=3996
coded_height=2160
has_b_frames=0
sample_aspect_ratio=1\:1
display_aspect_ratio=37\:20

on DCP-o-matic MXFs.
When I feed a Fraunhofer 4k MXF to it, it outputs the same:
width=3996
height=2160
coded_width=3996
coded_height=2160
has_b_frames=0
sample_aspect_ratio=1\:1
display_aspect_ratio=37\:20

When I add the Fraunhofer 4k DCP to a DCP-o-matic project and rewrap/recreate the DCP, MediaInfo gives the same strange header flags as with original DCP-o-matic created content - both in IOP and SMPTE.

MediaInfos XML dialog says:

<track type="Video">

mediainfo is getting the height from the DisplayHeight property of the MXF header (not the JPEG2000 size). I can't find an equivalent for Width, strangely. This DisplayHeight is never set up by asdcplib.

MI.Inform_Get()

MI is Core

Then in Core.cpp; MI->Inform, MI is MediaInfoNameSpace::MediaInfoList.

MediaInfo_Inform.cpp Inform

MediaInfo_Inform.cpp 228 ish
MediaInfoLib::Config.Inform_Get_

Valeur in MediaInfo_Inform.cpp:594 ih is pixel0 for Height (Nom is Height just above)
StreamPos=0, Champ_Pos=148, Info_Text=1, Valuer=" pixel0"

(then Original height
0, 152, 1, "1 080 pixels")

Get is MediaInfo_Internal::Get (line 1535)

On line 1716 of MediaInfo_Internal.cpp
Stream[StreamKind][StreamPos][Parameter] is " pixel0"
StreamKind=Stream_Video
StreamPos=0
Parameter=148

Stream is a whole bunch of values
print Stream in GDB

1998
1 998 pixels

0
 pixel0

1080
1 080 pixels

i.e. start with 0 then mangle it to pixel0
i.e. it looks like height is being read as 0

Stream is a vector<vector<ZtringList>>

Apparently not written by Set?

File__Analyze::Fill in File__Analyze_Streams.cpp is called with Parameter=148 and Value=" pixel0"
Comes from File__Analyze::Value_Value123 in File__Analyze_Streams.cpp

Parameter 147 comes into that Fill with Value 1080
Maybe coming from File_Jpeg::SIZ in File_Jpeg.cpp

In File__Analyze_Streams.cpp around 465 case Video_Height happens; fills Video_Sampled_Height (a way after Video_Height in enum, 158)

After this, Fill is again called with 147 with Value 0

Comes from File_Mxf.cpp line 3488
Descriptor->second.Height_Display is 0
Descriptor->second.Width_Display is -1

i.e. its the MXF descriptor which has height 0?

mxfdump has StoredWidth=1998, StoredHeight=1080, DisplayHeight=0...
(but no DisplayWidth...)

There's my cryptic notes while I was debugging it.
