I have the similar issue, the answer is interesting but i am wondering if i can avoid specifying an alternate landscape layout just for that in my case: indeed i don't want to have 2 different background pictures for horizontal/vertical layout but just to fit to screen with height/width ratio preserved and to crop what can not fit in the screen but default behaviour is to shrink without preserving aspect ratio.
Anyway to tune that? Or at least maybe using an imageview in the background would avoir replicate the layout just for that?
