I'm using a patch that reads in a 16:9 formatted movie, and sends it to play fullscreen on a 4:3 projector. It seems that by default, the playback chain I am using stretches the movie to entirely fill the frame, so it becomes distorted.

How can I ensure that the aspect ratio is maintained (ie adding black bars top and bottom) when projecting a 16:9 movie via a 4:3 display?

I am using a jit.qt.movie -> jit.gl.slab -> jit.gl.videoplane -> jit.window

don't forget the ortho attribute of the jit.gl.render, it could be useful for video projection without 3d effect

try this :


Here's what I often do. Two possibilities:

the easiest way with max 6, is to use jit.gl.cornerpin @preserve_aspect 1

I found this thread and has really helped me with a project I'm working on.

What I now need to accomplish, is to break up image (2880 x 576) into 2 blocks (1440 x 576 each), so I can use 2 projectors, each projecting half the image.

I've tried the jit.scissors object to divide the image but it is not giving me the right proportions after. Any suggestions?

One possibility is to create one single and to position it with the message relative to your projectors screen size, assuring to position your exactly in the middle of your overall screen size (= size projector 1 + 2).
