Re: Feedback on New Bigger, Better Video Player

Shane1163

Here's a better idea.. if the video is 4:3 aspect HAVE IT PLAY IN THE
NORMAL SIZED PLAYER!!! and ONLY have it play widescreen IF THE VIDEO
IS WIDESCREEN!!! OTHERWISE GIVE US THE OPTION OF WHAT WE WANT TO
USE!!!!! maybe make a link on each video so we can change it manually
like the quality, and give us the option of setting a default! But as
it is now I DO NOT LIKE IT AT ALL!!!
