SupraKarma Posted December 28, 2016 Share Posted December 28, 2016 I was missing one video from my SG-1000 collection, so I downloaded it from youtube. Then, when I was testing it in HyperSpin, I noticed that it had 16:9, while all my other videos are 4:3. I've tried 3 different softwares, claiming they could convert the aspect ratio, but all they really did was add black bars to the top and the bottom. Lame. Does anyone know a solution for this problem? It's only one video but it's quite offensive to my OCD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SupraKarma Posted December 29, 2016 Author Share Posted December 29, 2016 In case someone else googles this, I found a much easier solution. If you open up the theme.xml (inside the default.zip file located in the 'themes' folder for a system, all you have to do is change the forceaspect= to forceaspect="both". No need to change the aspect ratio of any video. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
