interactive zoom

Postby andylolly » 09 Jul 2016 14:28

When I play a 4k video I find that I cannot use the interactive zoom function, video freezes. Works perfectly with other videos but not 4k ones.
Why is this, I have the latest version?
Is there any other way to zoom in ?

What is the pixel format (Y:U:V something) in the codec information dialog?

Am amazed nobody can help with this! Whats the point in asking me for info then ignoring my reply?
If VLC ( we can play anything ) cannot cope then perhaps I should look to zoomplayer, Km player & others that can?
I actually think this forum is largely a waste of time seeing how few queries get answered.
Shame....was a great player.

Well, zoom takes a lot of CPU, so for 4K, this can be expected.

Again no reply to a simple question, does anyone read this forum?
Please somebody, how do I zoom in on a video without using the complicated interactive option ?
Thank you.
