feature request: re-size video to match screen (Live TV SD sub-channels)?


Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

Is it possible to implement a feature, which I am assuming would be part of Emby Theater, that scales the video to the display size?  The classic example of this would be the HDTV sub-channels which are broadcast at a smaller resolution.  Just to be clear, these are not 4:3 aspect ratio SD programs, but 16:9 content that has been compressed to fit in the smaller bandwidth of an HDTV sub-channel.

 

I think the typical behavior of an HDTV, tuning these signals natively, is to scale them to fit the 1920 X 1080 display.  ET is showing them at their as-broadcast resolution, which leaves a lot of the screen real estate unused.

I've been meaning to ask for this for a while now. What would solve this would be a zoom option, like Ember has.

Too much bug squashing for this to be considered at the moment?

Yes I think zooming settings are something we should offer in a future update. thanks !

This would be nice for 480p content that sometimes doesn't fill the screen.
