Thanks for taking the time to request this feature. Depending on what you want to do Apple's native player already supports switching between aspect ratios. You need to do a quick double tap on the touch surface of the Siri Remote.

 

Can you elaborate more on what you're looking for specifically on Apple TV?

Yes but it is a very big zoom [emoji24] and not a fill and a 16:9

No that's just a massive zoom mode that is stupid on Apple's part. It does not correctly do 4:3 to 16:9.

The only "correct" way to display 4:3 in a 16:9 frame is to have black bars on the sides (which is the default behavior).

 

So, whatever you are expecting to happen is just your desire for how you want to distort the image to fit in that frame.  There are basically two methods. You either zoom the entire frame and lose information on top and bottom or you stretch the image and distort the information horizontally.

 

Neither of those is correct but, I assume you are wanting the latter?

Yes you are correct, that generally it does distort an image - it varies depending on if the image already completely fills the 4:3 image size or has small black vertical bars on the left and right of the 4:3. The latter resizes better when going to 16:9, than a programme that completely fills the 4:3 frame. This all depends on how the broadcaster made the programme at the time. A lot of UK content (PAL 50) has this.

 

Windows Media Center had an intelligent zoom. It cropped a small amount top and bottom then stretched horizontally. If possible, that would be good. Some people love 4:3 as it is, but a lot of people hate watching square pictures now we are used to widescreen and would rather stretch it. Apple do it very badly though as the zoom is full on and crops LOTS of picture top and bottom off.
