Aspect ratio error for some images in fullscreen 'Borders' mode. #295

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
Usually the Aspect Ratio -> Borders option in nullDC keeps the correct DC 4:3 
ratio in fullscreen, with black borders at either side.

Sometimes though some images are stretched to fit the whole screen, regardless 
of this setting.

Examples are:
The Sega copyright logo seen when loading any game.
Loading screens in Dinosaur, Rayman 2, Test Drive V-Rally and others.

Tested on r78, GDI images.

i think this is what's supposed to be

borders just "hide" what is being rendered behind them, but the renderer still 
calculates everything as if there were no borders

wouldn't it be better to have borders as real screen limiters?

No, this only happens on fully 2d images, such as loading screens. They get 
stretched to the wrong ratio instead of being 4:3.

yes, 2d images are relative to the screen size, borders just mask the extra 
screen rendered

I'd say the other way around - 2d images are relative to the ratio they're 
originally drawn in, if they're stretched then that's incorrect behaviour.

Here's two pics as an example of this issue. The first is Dinosaur's title 
screen, a 2d image which is correctly displayed as 4:3 with borders (as 
'Borders' is the option I've chosen). The second is the loading screen for the 
demo, a 2d image which is stretched to the 16:9 ratio of my screen, even though 
I requested 'Borders' mode.
The image looks stretched also - it should be in 4:3.

Frame buffer rendering currently doesn't take into account the rendering mode, 
thats the problem. Known problem (well, more like a limitation of my code)
