Snapshot Width And Hight Setting

Postby Coral » 21 Jul 2012 14:51

Is it possible to set the player to calculate the snapshot of the picture frame size, width X 2 and height X 2 ? To get a biger picture.

OK. I found the solution: Width 720 X 2 and Height 0. 0 will give the correct aspect ratio.

That's pretty stupid actually. You'll only make the image file larger with no better quality.

That will do nicely for my needs. I need to have larger dimentions than that given by the player snapshot standard setting .

Can someone expand the parameters as they appear under the PREFERENCES/VIDEO to increase the size of the picture? Aspect ratio?
I understand the resolution is the same but sometimes, bigger is needed to cover a larger area.

Width 720 X 2 and Height 0. 0 will give the correct aspect ratio.

The PREFERENCES come with:

Video snapshot width as = -1
Video snapshot height as = -1

Guess dont understand what -1 means??

Where and how do you enter: Width 720 X 2 and Height 0. 0 will give the correct aspect ratio. ?/

I use the snapshot to create a DVD/CD label to print in the DVD/CD if I burn the video.
