Sorry, I just saw that you already ran an ffprobe.  If you run ffprobe
again and look for Stream #0:0, does yours report the DAR as 4:3?  If so,
perhaps you were looking at Stream #0:2 when you were seeing the DAR
17:25.  If not, then perhaps there's something else going on with your
build.  If that's the case, let us know which version you're running
(usually reported at the top of ffprobe/ffmpeg output)
