May I know how to fit the video source to my 16:9 screen?
I also dunno why the video source i downloaded was some weird resolution (like 1920x800, etc) instead of 1920 x 1080 even though they mentioned 1080p.

I used my fren's media player to play, it was full screen, but not in HDPro.

And any recommended setting for colors? Brightness, contrast, hue, etc.
I feel the color quite weird compare to my fren's media player.

Thanks.

harrychoo,
- 1080p actually is counting the WIDTH 1920 pixels rather 1080 pixels HEIGHT.
same with 720p, it actually refers to WIDTH 1280px, rather than 720px HEIGHT.
The reason is simply becos films are shot and released in different widescreen formats. Philips has this crazy 21:9 screen, think it's called 'true-cinema' or something smile.gif

- your fren got fullscreen - maybe he zoomed more, or he stretch to full screen without "maintaining" aspect ratio

well yeah, u're right smile.gif harry's asking about his weird 1920x800 resolution... less confusing if u forget about the height being 1080px tongue.gif

harry, 1920x800 = 21:9 true-cinema ratio, go buy this then u can get full screen smile.gif

Oh, now I get it. So can I said there are no standardize height even though it is 720p or 1080p?
Means we should check the resolution of the source 1st regardless 720p/1080p or not?

So now I have to find sources for 16:9

Bro as far as I know, 1080p is the height.

When advertise as 1920x800 that means, the with is at 1920 horizontal and the 800p vertical is due to the ripper took out the rest of the black bars above and below, so you get a smaller file to download.  You don't need those black bars anyway do you?

well.. the zoom made those black bars disappears sometimes. the toggle 4:3 and 16:9 can remove the left and right bars... it make you video fat though sometimes

my 2 cents as  I could recall when I google for the same question before....


Added on April 15, 2010, 3:26 pmbtw... I've using HDPro BT for 2 days now. Is is very hot? nope.. not really. I mean is not like super hot. My notebook is even hotter.. tongue.gif

didnt hang and still play..... movies no problemo...

just that sometimes download speed fast, sometimes slow... hmmm

Also, I dont read mandarin.. so, the new download feature at the web is cool. I can see those movies that you want.. I mean the pics... . Then I used it to download the torrent and use my PC to download instead.

How to remove the up/down black bars if my source is not 16:9 (which doesn't match my panel ratio)?
I try playing the same source on my fren's player, I noticed that by default, it oledi fit nicely into my screen without changing any settings.
So wonder why HDPro can't do the same.

About the new download feature, are those torrents or direct download? Not yet try tongue.gif

I'm using Win 7 too and try the methods in the link, including hacking the registry, but still cannot access the folder in my desktop.

And for the download service, is it i have to install BT Samba 1st?
