how to fit-to-screen by default?

Postby kmfdm » 22 Sep 2011 20:30

hi,

is there any way to have a video to fit-to-screen by default when opening? not fullscreen - i mean basically doing the same thing that double-clicking the top menu bar does.

right now, the program opens the video at whatever it's resolution is, so a 1080p video always has a portion off the screen on my 1680 monitor until i double-click that top bar. i've been through the preferences, and i can't find it.

it was never remembering it, but then i changed back to the default skin and it works now. strange.

edit: yup, doesn't seem to work when you aren't using the default skin. i tried a couple WMP11 skins. is this a known issue?

Skin2 uses different settings. So it might be a bug.
