[VU+ Duo] New A/V Settings Issue - Build 763

[Rahat786786]

Hi, I am on build 763 which has the new video integration. One thing I have noticed is that even when I select Just Scale for 4:3 pictures it still shows the original aspect ratio on AVIs on my external HDD and on youtube videos too. Previously it would scale the picture but now it has the black borders on the sides. Channels do scale properly though.

please attach a sample i can test on. all my tests it works fine.

Any video on Mytube plugin for instance displays at usual aspect ratio rather than scaling.

Mine is the same since I just reflashed

 

[Rahat786786]

Can I upload the video on a filesharing site and post the link here as it is too large to attach?

 

[Rob van der Does]

Yes please, do.

as i have said you have not flashed 760 or grater, i know this because we do not use VideoMode plugin any more ViX has it's own VideoMode embedded into image.

[VideoMode] setting policy: bestfit

Hi,

thats is not true 4:3 see for your self

to be exact it is 512:400 so a special resolution not commonly used.

ciao

 

[Rahat786786]

But previously it used to scale to the screen when selecting just scale for 4:3 and black borders with letterbox.

 

[judge]

It is an odd resolution though, so not sure how it should be handled properly?

 

[Rahat786786]

Would it be possible to roll back prior to the video integration to see how it was previously handled? Alot of youtube videos also do not scale now.

Best bet would be to flash a pre 760 build & enable debug logs, although I'm not sure if the debugging info that woud be required would be included then...

1- Please be aware that there is still WiP. First of all make sure you're on the actual build (770 atm), but even then: there's more to come.
2- For files found in the wild: many of them, if not most, have not been coded properly. AspactRatio seems to be a common part of this mis-coding. The same advise as always applies: recode when needed. And please don't forget you bought yourself a receiver, not a multi media player.
