Force screen aspect?

Post by ccdos »

Is there an option to let me to set a screen aspect?

The widescreen TV I have forced a 1024x768 resolution when connected to a computer. So the screen was stretched to 16:9. To view a picture properly on the TV, the picture viewer need to force a display aspect to 16:9 instead of 4:3 even though it is under the 1024x768 resolution. Please add the option.

Many movie players can force screen aspect but I see few image viewer let you do that.

Currently there is no such option, but will be perhaps good option..

Shouldn't the Video Driver (or a hack :mrgreen: ) take care of that?
