HD200 Aspect Ratio Mode
Hi Guys,
When using the HD200 as a Sage Extender does anyone know to permanently change "Aspect Ration Mode" to FILL ? I need to change it everytime I turn if on or a new program starts, seems to always want to default to "SOURCE" Thanks |

When playing a video, hit the "options" button. From there, go to aspect ratio control, select "fill", go into it's settings and set as default.

Try this. Set the aspect ratio to "fill". Then power down the HD200. After you power it up your setting should "stick". This has been an issue for a long time.

That didn't work for me, but what I did was went into the properties file for each of my HD200(s) and changed the... i think it was
"advanced_default_aspect_ratio=" to "advanced_default_aspect_ratio=Fill" It was near the top of the properties file. if you search for aspect it is the second instance of it in the file... at least it was for me. ~Mike |

If this works, i will buy you a beer. I have always had to hit the aspect ration button each time i watch my shows... I wish sage will give users that option to default it to fill. The aspect ration is the most annoying thing to me in sage.

Using 6.6..but I have not tried to set the aspect ratio for a long time, therefore I was not aware the issue had been addressed.
