Actual Size playback

Recommended Posts

Hi,

 

Is there a way to have video playback at exactly the size it is ?

 

So that 720p material would use exactly 720 pixels vertically and a PAL standard def would use exactly 576 pixels vertically ?

ITunes playback has an "actual size" option that seems to do this. I think this gives the best picture because there is no upscaling or downscaling involved.

 

Thanks

(...Obviously...) you have to be in windowed mode, then:

• right click on view area and choose "View / Zoom / 100%"

 

BTW, you can assign a remote button to that, see:

"setting / Options / Input / Screen control / 100%"

 

Also you can command DVBViewer to do so with action "30"...

find all actions command in "actions.ini" file in main DVBViewer folder

 

Anyway, if you have a good Video Card / MPEG2 decoder

IMHO you shouldn't see big quality differences...

 

:bye:

Hi Gioxy,

 

Ive been away for a few days...

 

Don't know how I missed that zoom 100% but I did so thanks.

 

It may be wishful thinking but any upscaling looks bad to me.

If it's got 720 lines then I want to watch it with 720 lines, 720 comes out at about a 28inch diagonal on my 1080 line 42inch plasma which is the size of my old CRT !

 

thanks again
