Description Omer Akram 2009-12-22 16:33:39 UTC 
when i play a tv episode. there is a black border on my netbook's screen. although i can zoom but it would be great if there is an option to fit to screen is given so that i people don't have o zoom to remove that minor black border while playing videos.

This is the same feature I requested for the fullscreen zoom button in bug 590558.

i asked for fit to screen(strech) not zoom. plz reconsider this.
Comment 3 Bastien Nocera 2009-12-22 16:48:25 UTC 
You can already force the aspect ratio using the "A" key, and the aspect ratio menu items in View. Providing a "stretch to screen" which would break the aspect ratio isn't something we consider a good idea.

i know that but still it don't remove all the black border.

> i know that but still it don't remove all the black border.

You'd need to use zoom and change the aspect ratio.

As I mentioned, we have no interest in providing a way to have the movie stretched and breaking its aspect ratio.
