aspect ratio problem
« on: April 20, 2018, 03:23:26 PM »
Hello, I do not know if someone has already touched on this topic but as I do not know, I'll mention it.
Is there any way to remove the black bars in the movies while maintaining the aspect ratio?
I mean cutting the image from the sides to maintain the aspect ratio when zooming to eliminate the black bars.
I only get an unnatural stretch of the image.
with other video players like vlc or x-player I get it but I suffer from frame jumps and jerks in the reproduction
If someone can give me some solution if there is I would appreciate it

My own opinion is that zooming is still always worst than stretching, because you will loose some important parts of the original picture from the sides or top/bottom.

But if that's what you really want than try MX Player, it has many zooming option and plays perfectly with HiMedia.

It is not my intention to create controversy about what is better or what each one likes best. What I wanted to know was if there is a patch for the native player to add some more aspect ratio like zoom but without stretching people.
I already know that you cut images by the sides but it is an option of each one and my old popcorn c300 combo does it.
it is simply adding viewing options so that everyone can see it as they want, I say.
since I buy this device everything is a problem, I'm thinking of selling it and buying another one.
with the mx player it does not allow me to do it, only xplayer and vlc allows it to me but as I said, it is clear to see frame jumps with these players in zoom mode, in normal mode there are no frame jumps.
can it be a limitation of the hisilicon chip?
as I said with my popcorn c300 I do it without problems what happens that I have it removed simply for not being android but as a player the sigma chip is bestial
