Aspect ratio / 16:10 display

Suicide Machine · 2010-08-07 17:06

me again

I have one of my clients hooked up to an 16:10 display. For most skins I accepted (but never liked) that everything was stretched. Especially posters and fanart. Frown

But I just noticed that Night does an aspect ratio correction for fanart on the info screen (shortcut: i). But in e.g. the poster view fanart is stretched. I tried playing around in the xml files wit "keepaspectratio" but apperently I'm missing something.

Anyone could point me to the right file/lines? Or maybe this is even interesting for others aswell and could supported officially.

Cheers, SM

I use stretch some use scale. There are 8-10 blocks of code for fanart at top of MyVideoNav.xml change those to scale.

Same with one of the top blocks of code in DialogVideoInfo.xml, change it to scale.

That was fast, thank you mcborzu! As far as fanart goes this looks way better (from my subjective pov of course Wink

)
I'll play/look around some more what works best for the posters.
Thanks again.
