Does this not crop? #64

Closed KoB-Kirito closed 2 years ago

KoB-Kirito commented 2 years ago

Describe the bug

The video is 16:9 and the screen is 16:9, but the actual video is 21:9. So I want to zoom/crop to remove the black bars. But nothing happens.

Reproduction steps

Example video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UOxkGD8qRB4

Expected behavior

Black bars go poof.

Environment

Hello @KoB-Kirito, thank you for reporting-in. Since you're on Windows, I'm assuming you're having the problem that everyone on Windows does...

Check this and let me know: https://github.com/dvlden/ultrawideo/discussions/62

Here's a screenshot from my Macbook Pro 13" where the video upscale works as expected.

I see. I‘m on firefox though.

Oh... I hope it's not happening on Firefox for Windows now too. I am on Firefox as well, but macOS.

Hello, Ultrawideo in amazing and wonderful and very useful, thank you very much !
Recently I have tried Ultrawideo with ungoogled chromium browser but it doesn't work...I knwo Uungoogled chromium isn't supported browser by Ultrawideo, but i have tried your advise and I go to chrome://flags/ ANGLE graphics backend D3D9, and it worked perfectly ! the black borders have disappeared from my streaming video !

I think this tip is very important for wide compatibility with chromium based browsers other than chrome and edge, I would like to say that it will be better if in the description of Ultrawideo and in the chrome store and microsoft edge store, the users see a notice written in bold and in large font that it is necessary to enable ANGLE graphics backend D3D9 for compatibility with chromium browsers other than chrome and microsft edge !
Thank you very much :)

I'll consider writing this and other tips in the official extension website, when the time comes. I have plans for v3 to rewrite from scratch, but it's going to take time.

Kind regards and enjoy!

Great ! that's amazing, thank you :) I used to download my videos from streaming sites and sometimes the episodes are boring and it's tedious to download so I started to watch the streaming videos through the web browser but there were those annoying black borders but with the magnificent Ultrawideo, this problem is solved ! Thank you again Mr Nenad, we are very grateful fot this marvelous wonderful work of art and technological gem
