[Request] Anamorphic Widescreen 4:3 > to 16:8 ratio #99

Hi, I really like the OSSC but I haven't been able to do more than using it.

Is it possible to have a setting to "fix" 480p anamorphic widescreen into a 960p 16:8 ? go from 640x480p to 1920x960p TRIPLE the wide ; DOUBLE the hight

I understand it is not a scaler but I if it can do it, I would like to experiment with a close enough ratio to 16:9.

That's within capabilities of the HW, but it'd require rewriting some core parts of the firmware and adding configurations for additional PLL multipliers. That would also enable e.g. multiplying 640x480p to 1280x960 within 1920x960p window which some people are asking.

All the above is implemented on OSSC Pro so some analysis would be needed to estimate how much work would be needed to backport it on classic OSSC.
