Hello,
I've got Freevo up and running on a box with a Matrox G400DH
and a Widescreen TV (Philips 100Hz) (via S-Video) running at
768x576 PAL-mode.
I'm trying to get on grip on the different aspect ratios.
When starting Freevo, the TV (in Auto-aspect-mode) enters mode
Superzoom (which is used to stretch a 4:3-image to fullscreen).
In this mode the top of the picture (the text "Freevo") gets cut.
If I manually change to "Widescreen" mode, I can see everyting.
If I try to play a movie in resolution 576x304 the video looks
best at the aspect-mode "Movie-expand 16:9" but the Auto wan't
to put it in "Superzoom".
The TV has the aspect-modes:
Superzoom Stretch 4:3 to full size
4:3 4:3 (With black bars on left and right)
Widescreen Full size (16:9 I guess)
Movie expand 14:9 Some kind of zoom-mode
Movie expand 16:9 Some other zoom-mode
16:9 Subtitles Almost like the previous, but doesn't zoom
as much.
My questions:
What is the "correct" resolution to use on a PAL Widescreen TV?
What is the "correct" aspect-mode to use on a 1,85:1 movie?
What is the "correct" aspect-mode to use on 2,35:1 movie?
If anyone can point in a direction to understand this, I'd be very glad.
Thanks,
/LM
