[QUOTE="ziphnor, post: 70316, member: 14215"] That might be the case, it would be nice to process entire lines instead. If a binary search style approach can be used, i am sure it will be possible to take whole lines. Its pretty simple to see when the approach fails as it will almost always find a way too small bounding box. When that happens i think as you say that its a good idea to just stick with the last detected format. I am thinking that it will start by showing the whole image until it strikes a frame that can be used. After that it would sample once in a while and if discovering a larger box immediatly change it, but be more reluctant to decrease the bounding box(to avoid it jumping up and down due to subtitles). On the other hand this might lead to a delay in reducing the format again when coming out of commercials. I think that there definetly should be a mode where the user hits a key to autodetect the format each time it needs to change. That can be made very reliable.
