How to watch any widescreen slideshow without black strips


Igor

Recommended Posts

If you watch any wide screen slideshows (say 16:9) on usual LCD display at 1024x768 (4:3) you will see black strips at top and bottom parts of the screen:

If you don't want to see these black strips and you would like to use all square of your display for a slideshow, use "Pan and Scan" feature of PicturesToExe. Create MyShow.bat file in Notepad and type:

"MyShow.exe" -Cover

See the result below:

It works for all EXE files with slideshows created in version 5.0 and later.

You can distribute a ZIP archive with your slideshow with EXE file and additionally included .bat file for fullscreen version:

MyShow_Widescreen.exe

MyShow_PanAndScan.bat

Thanks Igor, I try it, it cut the slide, that's quite normal and the screen is cover. Can be interesting when Slideshows are in 16/9 format on a 4/3 display.
