[QUOTE="kszabo, post: 618274, member: 61646"] I tested IFC now for 2 days on MP 1.1 and went back to ViewModeSwitcher (VMS). This was kind of a decision based on my taste only. I prefer the logics of VMS. I don`t see the necessity of cropping anything of the picture. Switching the view mode alone does what I need. I had the feeling that VMS kicks in faster any is more steady (no streching in-and-out every few seconds as with IFC). I have the feeling that IFC is a technical overkill for a quite simple task as summarized here: I have a 16:9 TV. 16:9 with 16:9 content -> should be left untouched -> VMS does it 16:9 with 21:9 content -> ideally should be "vertical smart streched", no plugin can that -> should be left untouched -> VMS does that 4:3 with 16:9 content letterboxed -> should be simply zoomed in -> VMS does that 4:3 with 4:3 content -> should be horizontal smart streched -> VMS does that I have never seen 16:9 with 4:3 content -> no need for algorhythm 16:9 HDTV -> should be left untouched, not even scanned -> VMS does that what I would use: vertical smart stretch, which is not supported by MP (only horizontal). But this is not a plugng problem but one of MP. I mean: 21:9 content in 16:9 -> slight zoom-in (ca. 5 %), rest of black bars should be eliminated by streching the upper and lower parts of the picture, leaving the middle without distorsion. Thanks anyway, good plugin! [/QUOTE]
