| Dual Head - Full Screen Video on Widescreen monitor Hi In the past, I was using an external 4:3 aspect ratio monitor along with my laptop monitor (1680x1050) in dual head setup. Videos were always shown in full screen on the external monitor. Now I puchased a widescreen external monitor (1680x1050), which works fine, except that the full screen feature mentioned above distorts the display. The monitor says it's running at 640x480 resolution only, when showing the video, even though it had been properly set up to run at full resolution in normal dual head mode. The GeForce FX Go5200 Tool of my graphics card lets me turn off the Full Screen Video option (in this case the video is only shown in the pertaining player), but it doesn't let me change the default resolution. Does anybody have an idea, how to configure the Full Screen video to be shown in the external monitors current resolution? I hope this would give me some black bars on the sides, instead of stretching the video to fill the whole monitor area. Thanks, Holger |
