I meant exactly the video recording and playback
So now it is certain that no one can at least keep to a minimum zooming when recording Full HD ??????

[Q] lockscreen resolution

does anyone know what the resolution for the lockscreen pictures? It doesnt have scrolling and I hate the crop of the picture because it makes the picture grainy, I would like to know the actual resolution and not 1280x720....thanks

that IS the actual resolution. That is teh screen resolution so none scrolling images are 1280x720. Scrolling images for homescreens are 1280x1440
ok well let me refrarise the question I guess, what is the resolution of the lock screen so you aren't forced to crop the picture? @ 1280x720 you have to crop the picture, hence the crappy quality.
Sounds like you need to have the resolution in the opposite direction

Don't crop the picture. When the box shows up with the crop tool, just leave it alone and hit OK.
As long as your pictures are 720 x 1280 or larger, it should be as clear as day.

In fact, it is 720x1280 for no-scrolling and 1440x1280 for scrolling
My solution to that was viewing desired picture in gallery, take screen shot and then place it as a lock screen pic. Thanks to that it is saved at screen resolution. Hope this helps.

how to unzoom 16:9 video

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.

App to play YouTube videos on 4:3 aspect ratio

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...
