Description

What's the problem? Describe what went wrong.

[Description here]
Screen mode changes from 4:3 to 16:9 if Wave beam is used and hits a wall

What steps will reproduce the problem?

In Phazon Mines (at least), Equip the Wave Beam and shoot a wall, the moment the beam hits the wall the video changes from 4:3 to 16:9 until start or map button is pressed. Other beams don't cause this issue. If you shoot a charged wave beam it doesn't happen either. (see the video)

Is the issue present in the latest development version? For future reference, please also write down the version number of the latest development version.

I don't use dev version

Is the issue present in the latest stable version?

Dolphin 5.0-11845

If your issue is a graphical issue, please attach screenshots and record a three frame fifolog of the issue if possible. Screenshots showing what it is supposed to look like from either console or older builds of Dolphin will help too. For more information on how to use the fifoplayer, please check here: https://wiki.dolphin-emu.org/index.php?title=FifoPlayer

You can see a video of it here:

What are your PC specifications? (CPU, GPU, Operating System, more)

CPU Intel Core i7-9750H
Graphics Nvidia GeForce RTX 2070
Memory 16GB DDR4-2666
SSD 1TB M.2 PCIe NVMe SSD
Windows 10

Is there anything else that can help developers narrow down the issue? (e.g. logs, screenshots,
configuration files, savefiles, savestates)

You can use this savestate:

This might be a bug caused by the changes to the widescreen heuristic we just merged. "Force 4:3" should work around the issue for now, until we figure out what's going on.

Can you please produce a fifolog which showcases the transition from 4:3 to 16:9?
