Aspect Ratio
1. Click on Configuration , select the Video tab, click
Advanced..., then select Aspect Ratio. These options control
how video in 4:3 ratio is converted to 16:9 (and vice versa).
• In the Full Screen Display Preference section, the Always
keep aspect ratio option retains the original aspect ratio
whenever you resize the video display. This option is
mutually exclusive with the CLPV option below.
• Linear stretch stretches all parts of the video equally,
resulting in noticeable distortion when the aspect ratio of the
video display does not match the aspect ratio of the monitor.
• CLPV (CyberLink Pano Vision) is a non-linear video
stretching technology that produces minimal distortion in the
center of the picture. The Smart Stretch option (which is
recommended for most videos) stretches the video display to
the height of the screen and crops slightly off the sides. The
Fit to Screen option stretches the video to the complete size
of the screen without loss at the edges. The Keep Subtitles
option ensures that the subtitle remains visible when the
video display is stretched. (This option is only available for
4:3 movie content.)
2. Click OK when you are finished.
