How to view pictures in original sizes? - slattann - 2020-07-09

Hi All,

I want to understand how could I view pictures in original sizes?
I have some low resolution imagesĀ  and would like to view in the same size instead of stretching them to fit the panel/display resolution size.

The idea is as follows:
1) I want to prepare a FrameBuffer (FB) & submit the FB of Original sizes to Display Hardware
2) Let Display Engine (DE) take appropriate call to scale it based on its hardware capabilities

2nd part is working fine I have verified it on IGT unit test observed the results.
I want to check the same behavior with pictures in Kodi.
Can someone help with this? ThanksĀ

Not exactly sure what you want to accomplish, but there is a setting that you can put into an advancedsettings.xml file to prevent stretching of pictures when playing a picture slideshow.
Code:
<slideshow>
<blackbarcompensation>0</blackbarcompensation>
</slideshow>

that's the only thing I know of that you can change in Kodi.
