Hey everyone. I have a question for you. I would love to play certain 4:3 games in 16:10 that don't have that capability. In Windows Media Center, there is a stretch mode that is so perfect...I wish I could use it with everything. The option in the program looks kind of like this - _ > < _ It cuts a very little bit off the top and bottom, the image still looks stretched, but the difference between the original image is barely noticeable. Now the question is, Is there a program that can...smart stretch your monitors image on any program? I know it sounds far fetched but these days some crazy shit has surfaced so I wouldn't be totally surprised of something like this did exist. Thank you so much for your time!!!!!!!!!!!!! |

I don't know of one, but that far from means it doesn't exist. It would have to override nviaida/ATI's settings in your control panel though. My TV had the mode you refer to... it's called wide-zoom on my TV... cuts some of the top and bottom off to reduce stretching, but still stretches. I don't really use it as I crave image integrity, but I agree it is much better than normal stretch on most things. I actually did use it on some older 4:3 console games a few times. |

My old Sony TV had this as well, it was just called "Smart". The trouble with a program like this on games would be the possibility of cutting off some of the HUD. If you still had a CRT, then you could just adjust the image so it stretches vertically off the screen :D |
