[VU+ Duo] Help needed for changin aspect ratio on mkv videos

[magnumkhan]

Hi!

When I try to watch mkv movies from my Nas, it shows the movie with wrong aspect.
How can I adjust that the movies gets black "spaces" over and under?

When I watch the same movie on the computer with vlc everything is ok.

Thanks in advance

what are your A/V settings for 4:3 and 16:9

 

[magnumkhan]

Thanks for your quick reply.

In setup/system/av settings I have:

automatic resolution disabled
Display 4:3 content as Just scale
Display > 16:9 contents as Just scale

try setting 16:9 to letterbox

Nope, didn´t help. The tv channels that are bigger than 16:9 are now in letterbox, but the mkv movie is still "stretched"

This happens with some media players and mkv, it is usually because the resolution of the file you are playing is 1920 x 800, most chips just recognise the 16:9 flag and add the black bars back in, some just stretch the picture, which box are you using as I didn't think the Vu boxes exhibited this behaviour.
Edit just seen you have a duo, I will check on my solo2 / duo2 tonight.

yes, it works!
After setting 16:9 to letterbox and a reboot.

I only did a restart enigma2 first and that was not enough, my mistake

Thanks everybody
