Custom ratio for aspect ratio correction?

rsn8887 · 12 April 2013, 18:39

Toni, thank you for your great work on WinUAE again.

I have grown to quite like the "Auto Scaling" function, because a lot of Amiga games have large black borders on the top and bottom, making them zoom quite well onto current widescreen displays!!!

Now, my netbook screen has an aspect ratio of 128/75, which is 4% lower than the standard 16/9. Is it possible to include a custom aspect ratio, for the aspect correction? Currently there are options "Auto,4/3,16/9 (...)" but no custom number option.

"Automatic" isn't working? What is its native resolution?

Automatic does something, but I am not sure it is 100% correct ratio?! Maybe it is. Native res 1024*600

Ok, maybe "automatic" already does what I meant. Hard to measure aspect exactly but looks about right

Automatic will work correctly if your Windows desktop uses display's native resolution.

Quite annoying ratio but I'll add to list. Note that you can set custom ratios by manually editing config file.
