Creating Custom Aspect/Crop Ratio

buddman · 2008-10-10, 00:36

I've searched for this on the forums but did not find any answers. I am trying to figure out if there is a way to create a customer aspect ratio/crop ratio (both implemented at the same time) and have it as a selection when you bring up the video menu while playing a video with MP's player (not using an external player). Using ffdshow's resize filter isn't an option for me because I don't have the CPU/Graphic horsepower to resize 1080p videos. What I want to add is a 221:107 aspect ratio with a 16:9 crop applied at the same time. Anyone know if this is possible with MediaPortal?

I take it either no one knows or it isn't possible. Thanks anyway.

Sorry buddman, I don't think it is possible without changing the code....

NPs. I am looking into upgrading my CPU and possibly graphics card anyway so I can have the horsepower to resize with ffdshow. Thanks again.

Anyway it's shame that this very necessary feature is not in MediaPortal
