Grym's mkv's are encoded in 1920x1080 res. @ 2.35:1, 1.85:1, 1.66:1, 1.33:1 film aspect ratio. Just like a retail Blu-Ray is. This will NEVER change, so don't ask!
Why is Grym's mkv's encoded this way? Read Number 2. Thanks.

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

 For starters we have Film Aspect Ratio = Letterbox, CinemaScope, PanaVision etc. =
 2.35:1, 1.85:1, 1.66:1, 1.33:1 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,
 measuring from a 4:3 TV Display. All the Cinematic Aspect Ratios/Framings
 mentioned just above apply to the HD resolutions 1080p (NOT 800p) and 720p (NOT
 544p) and to the standard resolutions as well, being the DVD resolutions 720x576p
 (PAL) & 640x480p (NTSC).

 Then we have the "black bars". These areas are black to allow for better
 contrast. The wrongly called "black bars" 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/letterbox ratio is lost! That goes for all BD/DVD resolutions.

 I know that a Blu-Ray player cannot playback anamorphic/letterbox material like
 the DVD player can, but the anamorphic/letterbox/Framing/Aspect Ratio scope 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 PC. Or you can grab one of
 Grym's uncropped x264 rips and use that for anamorphic/letterbox playback from PC.

 You can set a DVD player & also HD Box's to Display Aspect Ratio setting 4:3 and
 receive correct aspect ratio/framing (Not all HD Box's apply). All the 16:9
 setting in a DVD & Blu-Ray player or HD Box do, is to crop the image. That's it. 

 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.
 
 Example: 

 Open a 2.35:1 Grym mkv encode or retail BD 2.35:1 m2ts file in MPC-HC. Right
 click in center of MPC-HC screen. Choose 'Video Frame'. Choose 'Override Aspect
 Ratio'. Choose '235:100' (2.35:1). Display Aspect Ratio setting on your 16:9 flat
 screen you set to 1:1 pixel mapping or whatever the name is on your telly. On my
 own Pioneer Kuro LX5090H 16:9 flat TV it's called Dot by Dot. Now play mkv. 
 
 Ok, now try using same playback procedure with a cropped so-called "2.35:1"
 1920x800 rip/file. 1920x800 cannot be 2.35:1 on a tv screen (Where it Counts),
 because The Cinematic Aspect Ratios has nothing to do with Resolution! Aspect
 Ratio is a Framing tool for images in the cinema business. So it's impossible to
 get a correct 2.35:1 framed image on a correct set tv screen when the resolution
 is cropped to 1920x800, because now the image has been manipulated to a 1.85:1
 framing simply because part of the black areas are cropped of.

 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.

 Cinematic Aspect Ratios on 16:9 flat TV: Display Aspect Ratio setting on TV set
 to 1:1 pixel mapping and resolution is 1080p. Resolution could also be 720p, 480p
 or 576p, the Framing/Aspect Ratio would be the same:

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

 1.66:1 - Black bars on all sides of image (Small L+R) - Movies
