[QUOTE="emphatic, post: 1291591, member: 24365"] I'm running MePo in 1080p to my 4K TV (because my Intel NUC HTPC ain't powerful enough to run in 4K) and for some videos, I see that when I start playback, the skin is re-sized (black borders are added all around the video, top/bottom, left/right). The video file's resolution is 1920 x 1080. While I understand that black borders above and below the picture is normal due to different aspect ratio decisions by the filmmakers, [B]why does MePo change the whole resolution of the application [U]and video[/U][/B] in some cases? If I pause the video and go into Settings/GUI/Display/UI Calibration or Screen Calibration, it's set to 1920 x 1080 in both cases, but it still has black borders on all 4 sides. And if I try to stretch the video using Aspect Ratio: Stretched, it's unchanged. This baffles me. Even if the video has borders on the sides, then why does MePo re-size the GUI? 16:9 is 16:9 after all... Emph [/QUOTE]
