Option: Always auto-fit to screen

Postby alex6999 » 12 Apr 2009 07:52

I have 16:9 plasma tv and computer with 1024*768 resolution
I need for every movie change aspect ratio to 4:3

Option: "Always fit to screen" will be very helpfull.

Also widescreen movie can be in 4:3 box with black strips.

Option: "Always auto-crop black strips" will be very helpfull.

thanks.

PS: I just want to save my plasma from my wife. :mrgreen:

I second this. I frequently have large video playlists on my media center computer. It would be really nice if the aspect ratio could be forced within the preferences, and/or remembered at each start, and carried over with each video. :-)

you can already do that.

Tools -> Preferences... (Show settings: All) Video and source aspect ratio option.

thanks, but if it possible, add auto-crop too.

good idea call this function "save plasma from stupid wife" (autofit+autocrop)

You can adjust crop from same place. And you can add those options to VLC shortcut also, so you can multiple shortcuts for VLC which use different settings.
