Bug: 100fps Panasonic Varicam clips not rendered correctly

I posted this earlier to "Discussion", but it is in fact a bug report.

 

Panasonic Varicam 35 camera's can record in Cinema 4K in 25, 50 and 100 frames per second. The clips recorded at 100fps are not displayed/rendered correctly in Media Encoder and Premiere Pro.

 

 

The image is squeezed vertically and half the frame is green. In AME 22.6 it still works like it should.

 

I'm on a Mac Studio M1 Ultra, Monterey 12.6.2, AME 23.1.

 

More info on the video files:

 

Image Size: 4096 x 2160

Frame Rate: 25,00 (this is in Premiere, the recoding framerate is 100 fps)

Pixel Aspect Ratio: 1,0

Alpha: None

Wrapper type: MXF OP1b (type: SingleItem GangedPackages MultiTrack Stream Internal)

Compression Format: AVC-Intra100, MPEG-4 AVC/H.264 Intra Profile

File generated by: Panasonic, P2 (3.0) AVC Unconstrained Bitstream
