Zoom aspect in Sage client?
I just got my HD200 HD Theater setup and working (very easy and it performs and behaves very well) and I found that there is an option under 'aspect ratio' for 'zoom1' and 'zoom2'.
I'm wondering if there is such a setting for the sage client? The reason I ask is that the PC monitor that I use the client on, is 4:3 and I run into situations where the source was a 16:9 channel and the program was a 4:3 program, I end up with a 4:3 video surrounded by about 2 1/2 inches of black all around since it's got the black bars from the 16:9 source on the top and bottom, and then the black bars form the 4:3 feature on the sides. If I select 16x9 or source I get the feature centered, and if I select Fill or 4x3 I get the 4:3 feature stretched top to bottom, but not expanded left and right. Have I got any options here? |

You can't add new modes, but you can change the horizontal and vertical zoom factor on any of the four built-in modes under Detailed Setup > Multimedia > Aspect Ratio Settings. So pick one of the modes that's half right and adjust its settings to stretch as needed in the other dimension. Typical zoom values are 120% or 133%, depending on your display aspect ratio.
