no what he means is , he wants to maintain 4x3 scans ratio on his widescreen while seeing video,

just download BSplayer, install codec, and press "A" to cycle through all known ratio from 16x9 to anarmohpic to 4x3, and you can even create custom one in settings. eg 16x10.

if u set a desire scan size, press "O" to scale to size depends on the ratio. hope this clear up..

its very usefull for me as some video are ripp in wrong ratio setting , eg 4x3 then ripp in 16x9 ratio , i just fix it by cycle the ratio with "A" ...viola perfect scale...

I don't care even if I can't get rid of the black bars as long as all 4:3 videos shows perfectly in 4:3 ratio and don't stretch itself to fit the monitor.

Thanks for the tips.

As already mentioned numerous time, you will had 4:3 perfectly. That why you still able to see 2 black bars on both side. If is full screen, how you going to expect a 4:3 video fitting in a 16:10 screen without stretch.

my viewsonic EDID bug resolved by changing to the 2nd DVI output of my card.

What;s the EDID bug?

any tips on how to make my PES 5 pc running widescreen with my viewsonic 2025wm?

No, there is no widescreen fix for PES/Winning Eleven series.

which is the best choice??
VX2025WM or 2007wfp??
currently using NVIDIA Geforce 4 MX440......
note:i'm not a serious gamer...like to use pc to online..see DVD..and play NFS,FIFA.....

Well in fact you can buy 2 x 19" and rotate them vertically
The ratio will become (4x2) : 5, = 8 : 5 = 16 : 10.

Resolution will be 2048 x 1280. You definitely need a decent VGA card with dual monitor supported.

A 24" Dell Wide LCD resolution is 1920 x 1200, slightly lower than the 2 x 19" 2048 x 1280, but heck both setup will have the same 16 : 10 ratio....

If you want to save cost on single 24" wide setup, and wanted to have dual monitor setup to do your works, buy 2 x 17" or 19" with rotatable stand to vertical mode will be another viable solution..

There is no such thing as 5:4.

It is either 4:3 or 16:10, where the fǔck you get 5:4 ratio LCD?

So if you get 2x19" 4:3, rotate them and run 2 side by side, it will be (3x2) : 4 = 6:4

anyone using CMV widecreen here??

Geforce 4 MX440

better check ur GC first..

Yes, there are. FYI, those normal (non-widescreen) 17" and 19" LCD are using 1280x1024 native resolution which is 5:4 aspect ratio.

Gets your fact right and please be more polite...
The words came out from your mouth are somehow like samseng...

u let ur monitor sleep (eg : 15 mins auto-off) then it won't wake up again if u try to wake it up. Have to manually unplug your cable then replug for it to work.

Yeah..... I agree that.

haha u still dont understands what he ask , its very simple, he just want to know how/or what apps to let him adjust/maintain the original ratio scan even when running the app in fullscreen mode, or simply strech maximum fit in horizontal,while maintaining true 4x3 ratio. hence the black bars on side..

eg, Bs player in fullscreen mode, can select multiple ratio, cycling ratio type by pressing "A" , 4x3,16x9,anamorhpic ,etc

.................................

as for ratio types here some refferences,

guys dont argue lah, just say disagree can liao, everyone have rights on commends..
