I'm using now v13.8.1. This version works again like before v13.8.0, i.e. without libmediainfo and libzen installed. The server now use again the less accurate FFmpeg parsing method. So thanks for that.

In case it helps to know, it also works by replacing true with false instead of removing the line: KeepAspectRatio = false.
