I have loaded some movies and videos onto my gs2, the movies ripped from dvd with FabHD and the videos are mostly ytube downloads. All were then converted to mp4 using Handbrake (which cropped the black bars).
When playing the video, some that had the bars cropped (e.g. 1:2.40 aspect ratio films) although not all, play with the wrong aspect ratio.
For example, a 1:2.4 movie was stretched vertically to 16:9 and a 4:3 music video was stretched horizontally to 16:9.
The aspect ratio button on the video player didn't help.
Am I doing something wrong?
Apologies if this has been discussed before.
I'm trying to figure out why trading recording video in 16:9 is always zoomed in?
Literally zoned zoomed. For example if I toggle between the highest res option at 16:9 vs whatever is lower at 4:3 it's obvious that it is zoomed in. If I try to pinch zoom out it says I can't.

I'm talking about a problem when recording video, not playback issues.
Our nexus has a very annoying aspect ratio, most of the YouTube videos won't just fit for full screen.
Is there any way we could make these videos fit on full screen!?
Change YouTube app's aspect ratio, or any other app which can play online YouTube videos, where we can make it fit on full screen I.e. with 4:3 aspect ratio???

I'm sure there are ways to do this, but it would result in cropping out and stretching parts of the video. It would be very unpleasant to watch.
I just got a Nexus 9 myself, and this has been my primary complaint so far. I also have an Ipad mini, so I am used to the 4:3 form factor. What's nice about Ipad is that in my video apps, there is an option to autocrop to full screen. I wish we had that on the N9 as well. For the majority of videos, it isn't that "unpleasant" at all, actually.

This app let's you adjust your screen resolution so fullscreen videos fill the entire screen. (Requires Root)

You're right. Second Screen only works when you project your screen onto a TV (miracast). I ended up using Dolphin Browser and MXPlayer. When you watch a video in Dolphin and click the Fullscreen box on the video, the fullscreen window has a 3dot menu in the upper right. When you click that, you get the choice to select a different video player. Select MXPlayer (installed separately) and the video will play in MXPlayer, which has controls for scaling the video. Set it to Fit Vertically, and it will fill the screen. Not an ideal solution, but it works.
When widescreen tvs were new (I'm that old) it irritated me to see people, mainly older people, watching 4:3 ratio programmes 'stretched' to fit. Watch stuff as it is intended to be seen!
If you have a nexus 7 it's a perfect size for widescreen. Okay, so older 4:3 ratio stuff will be a bit small. But think of the poor iPad users who paid four times the price for a larger 4:3 ratio screen just so they can watch widescreen material letterboxed at the same size as a nexus 7.
And dont get me started on people who video on their phones vertically...
Hi,
Im currently looking for an android app that can crop a video, can modify its aspect ratio to 9:16 and can save it in a 720p resolution. Any recommendations?
Thanks
Default settings let us make photos with aspect ratio 4:3 , did anyone find how to make wider photos, like 16:10 or 16:9?
check the little < by USB port and slide out.

Just click the 3:4 icon and it will toggle between 3:4, 9:16, full-screen setting.
