Changing the Aspect Ratio of the
Viewer Window
EyeTV will automatically try to choose the correct aspect ratio. Typical TV has
a 4:3 ratio, while a few widescreen formats also exist. If you would like EyeTV
to always choose a certain ratio, you can pick that from the View menu. This
could be useful if you are trying to remove letterboxing, or display content on
a widescreen monitor. Your choices are 4:3, 14:9, 16:9 and Wide. Some ratios
may visibly remove part of the image, to make it fit that shape without otherwise
stretching or distorting the picture.
Adjusting the Display Options
You can adjust how the Viewer Window presents video by selecting Display
Options… from the View menu. You can control the overscan and interlacing,
which can improve the image quality of the viewer window. See Chapter 8.
