Per Channel Aspect Ratio

DiamondSlica · 2007-05-24, 08:46

I have one idea, hopefully more than just me would have a use for it.

In MP Setup, television, TV Channels, then edit per channel, An option could be added to specify the Default aspect ratio for that channel.

Cheers

would be a nice feature, i can't really see a major difference in aspect ratios per station tho, so i'm not quite sure if in australia for instance their would be any differences?

We get stations transmitted in 4:3 and some transmitted in widescreen and having to change the aspect ratio everytime you change channel is annoying to say the least.

i didnt' realise any stations were being transmitted still in 4:3 ? whats your location and station doing this?

In New Zealand, TV3 is 16:9 and TV1 and TV2 are 4:3 but may change fairly soon. Not sure about C4 and Maori TV. These are on the digital Freeview sat service that launched 2 May 2007 on Optus D1.

I guess it is because I'm a kiwi too - this would be a neat feature to have.

I'm tired of having to set the aspect ratio every time I change to TV3. Would be great if MP could do this automatically

Hello together,

maybe I'm totally wrong, but doesn't this plugin by lkuech just do the trick automatically?
