annoying thing about vlc - subs can't appear in the black area below the movie which appears when playing widescreen movies in full screen mode.... vlc site admin: "it is very complex since, we have to Rework all the Video Out. So no, it is not planned yet."

annoying thing about gom - "GOM Player doesn't support languages that are displayed from right to left, and we do not have immediate plans to support them at this point."

ffdshow + mpc, no other choice for me..

Works better when forwarding through videos (faster and no breakup of the image). Looks a lot nicer out of the box. I've never even scratched the surface of VLC regarding it's advanced features, I just want a player that works well and looks good, and this fits the bill nicely.

Which languages are read from right to left in video release? I know some Asian texts are, but for video they are read from left to right.

Thanks but can someone still answer my question?

I am going to connect my laptop straight to my tv and I do have high-def videos. How do I set up GOM Player to play the videos in high-def on the tv?

Also.. howcome .mkv files don't play well in GOM Player?

I might try this player out. I recently tried out KMPlayer and I'm very happy with it. Is it easy to put the player in full screen mode? Anyone know how to do that with Windows Media Player 11? I always get the widescreen borders. I've been trying to find out forever! Where's the damn option to set it to 4:3?? lol

I'm not sure I understand the question... As long as your Laptop is set with the TV as the output, then you should be able to play the videos on the TV.

Right click on the video (or click on the "GOM" Icon in the top left) -> Aspect ratio -> 4:3(TV)

There are a huge amount of options in the context menu.

Shortcut = ctrl+f7

Or, if you meant zoom to get rid of bars, use the pan and scan options.

I Have been using GOM as my primary video player for ages now, the only codecs I have installed are quicktimeALT, and realALT. My favorite video player ever.

I am connecting my laptop to the tv and it can play fine. I am asking.. what settings should I use on GOM Player? Like 5.1 audio... or 16:9 (HDTV) or whatever else?

This all depends on the tv, and audio setup you are using. If you have a 5.1 system, then use 5.1 audio, if your screen is a different aspect ratio, you might need to change it. Trial and error is your friend.

I will probably try out Gom, but I'm really loving KMPlayer now that I'm getting a hang of the options. I know this isn't the right thread, but I was asking how to set Windows Media Player 11 to 4:3 aspect ratio? It annoys me how playing videos through it and Media Center always have the black bars. I cannot for the life of me find the video option to change the aspect ratio in Windows Media Player 11. Surely there is one, right??

Yeah. I set it to 16:9 video and 5.1 audio. What other options should I choose?

What output should I choose? Overlay Mixer... VMR9? or something else?

What else?

Don't worry about the renderer, it won't make a big difference. Whichever it defaults to on your machine should work fine.

    • Absolutely NOBODY has suggested such a conclusion. I am affirming the sober reality check that AV2's overall market adoption will take longer than AV1's adoption rate -- which, by the way, is the whole point of the article! While PCI-SIG is productive (on paper), other WGs have created all sorts of confusing progress plans that consumers have tuned-out of their improvements... HTML/W3C, USB, HDMI, BT, WIFI (ieee802.11) as a few other groups where spec naming conventions, split progress paths, overlapping ambitions... I'm not critiquing the AV specs group; I'm simply affirming that adoption for AV2 faces headwinds beyond the macroeconomics of it all.

    • No thanks! WebView trash is unacceptable. I only use software that's native.
