CWNashvegas 169 Posted October 10, 2013 Share Posted October 10, 2013 1916 * 812 seems like a really weird resolution for a video. I've seen this non-fullscreen issue once or twice when I scale a video up from a resolution that's smaller than the device screen. Old 4:3 tv shows would be an example. This is happening to me also, with old 4:3 tv shows. And since that is what makes up the majority of my library... They played fine with MX, but they were squished using the internal player. I'm just not able to help much with testing right now, but I thought I'd add a "me too", especially since you mentioned the exact content I'm having the issue with. Pretty much all of my content is of a resolution smaller than my screen (Iconia A200, 1280 x 800 display). Link to post Share on other sites

Tharnax 49 Posted October 10, 2013 Share Posted October 10, 2013 Did you consider creating the products in BETA as their own category, where rather then having questions/answers as one long thread people could create individual posts. Similar to what you have for MBT, MBC, Web Client, etc.? Obviously, once the product goes to Production it would be could be moved out into the non-Beta section and the threads under the category closed. Just a thought. Link to post Share on other sites

sfnetwork 513 Posted October 10, 2013 Share Posted October 10, 2013 (edited) I'm really trying to reproduce your video size issue using your sample... I just can't... it always works for me.

sfnetwork 513 Posted October 10, 2013 Share Posted October 10, 2013 how to you make it transcode video but copy stream audio? I can't seem to reproduce this... ok... Since your audio can be copy streamed and if video quality is lower than MKV bitrate, it does this. Basically video quality setting doesn't change the audio request (transcode/copystream; if it can copy, it will whatever quality setting you have) lol doesn't really help with your issue, just answers my own question.

CBers 5140 Posted October 10, 2013 Share Posted October 10, 2013 Don't bust a gut on it, as it's not the end of the world, as I'll just play what I need to in an external player. Link to post Share on other sites

Redshirt 1485 Posted October 11, 2013 Author Share Posted October 11, 2013 (edited) how to you make it transcode video but copy stream audio? I can't seem to reproduce this... The only way I can see that happening is if the bitrate in the settings is lower than the source bitrate. Edit: Ah I see you already figured that out... carry on Edited October 11, 2013 by Redshirt 1 Link to post Share on other sites
