Zoom to fill "Crop" for Ultrawide videos with black bars (Windows) #633

Open nostalg1cc opened 10 months ago

Sometime when I want to watch something that appears to be in 21:9 format, and I go fullscreen on a ultrawide monitor I’m being left with black bars on top, left bottom and right side of the video.

Having a feature to "crop" or zoom to fill the video would be fantastic. While opening in VLC "fixes" that to a degree it’s not very practical, also it hides the subtitles usually. So the experience isn’t good either.

It would be an awesome addition to stremio if there was a button, or key-bind where you could toggle zoom to fill

I second this suggestion! Basic crop and Zoom functions in the player would be really handy at times.

Another vote for this, I have a ultrawide monitor so watching a ultrawide movie with hardcoded black bars is a sad sight (it's insane streaming sites do this in 2024... and there's so many shows encoded like this because some random studio logo screen is 16x9). A keyboard shortcut to cycle between standard crop values would be perfect (basically what VLC does, no need to reinvent the wheel).

Glad to see I'm not the only one with this issue. It would be awesome if we could have cropping options like in VLC or MPC.

Would love to see this feature added. Would save me the hassle to open on VLC and crop from there...

Is this planned? I also have an ultrawide monitor and cannot zoom in/fit to screen, which sucks.

Just want to mention that the mobile stremio app has this feature, but not the desktop. So maybe someone skilled can port it over pretty easilly?
