Black frame when full screen is on

[roethcohller]

Some days ago I downloaded BSplayer 1.37 and, since then, I've noticed that when activating full screen mode, clips are no longer as wide as my screen, but surrounded by a thick black frame. I've also tried with newer versions, but there are no changes at all. Can anyone tell me what the problem is, which option or whatever do I have to change?

Thanks from Spain. 8)

Try to press the button '5' on your keypad, oterwise right-click -> Video -> Pan-Scan -> Custom (SHIFT+O) and press the "Default" button, or alternatively drag the slide to the right

I have the same problem, ive done everything mention here and nothing. If i click M for Movie mode it plays correctly but it pan scan the video to fit the screen wich sucks, also i noticed that if i move the video to be played on the television ( i have an extended desktop to a tv) and then bring it back and press F for fullscreen it also plays correctly, but if i close bsplayer and open it again it would go black again and id have to move it to the tv and back again.

My vid card is an Ati Radeon 4890.

same problem here and pressing 5 does fix it, or pressing O twice

but even if i have the video settings to remember pan n scan, next time i go full screen same thing happens

3 months later many versions later and still it has the same problem
it just doesnt work as it used to, having to stand up during a playlist just to press 'O' two times, taotally defeats the purpose of a playlist, let alone clicking your mouse and select pan and scan auto again and again every time you want to play a movie. this problem has happened to many people as i can see in the forums, so far the only "solution" has been to press 5 in the numpad or to press 'o' two times wich sucks.

i hope you are looking into this problem (as it really is a problem or an "undesirable feature") and not letting people suffer this because it can be fixing by standing and using the keyboard every time, i liked bsplayer because i can be away from the keyboard watching from my couch, sadly this is no longer true.

Remember Pan and scan should be applied for all videos you play, after you have set it.
It is possible you don't have the right to write to folder, where you settings file is stored.
What is the video ratio? 4:3?
