Aspect Ratio Photos

Change it back to pixel ratio of 1 and see if that fixes your pictures.

I've tried but affects my movies only. I've restarted XBMC too but nothing change on my photos.

The only solution I've found is to create a Photoshop Droplet that change my photos Aspect Ratio for 0.69 and then to upload them on my ATV with Filezilla.

If you have a more "user friendly" solution, I'm interested in.

However many thanks for the help.

Ciao, Valerio

Did you ever get a propper soloution to your problem of Aspect ratio.
I am having that exact problem with viewing pic's on XBMC ATV. they are streched to fill screen and as my TV locks the ratio on HDMI all my pictures are stretched.

I had this problem and sorted out by following the advices at the beginning of this post. If you don't already have one, just create an advancedsettings.xml file (for linux it's under $HOME/.xbmc/userdata, for other OS, check out http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=Fre..._Questions
In this file, just write:

Code:

<advancedsettings>

    <slideshow>

        <!-- Amount to compensate (zoom) images to attempt to reduce black bars. -->

        <!-- Defaults to 20. -->

        <blackbarcompensatioackbarcompensationn>0</blackbarcompensation>

    </slideshow>

</advancedsettings>

The value 0 for blackbarcompensation will completely disable any zooming done to your pictures and therefore, no more cropping.
