Change the resolution of stretch screen when playing films on itunes.

I buy all my films on iTunes, and love the service. But the majority of films on iTunes are for widescreen, which my computer and TV are. When I plug my pc into the TV the film plays and just about half of the screen- a quarter of it black at the top & bottom.
There I no way of playing the films in any other player which allow you to stretch the screen or film size.
Is there anyway of doing this on iTunes. I’ve tried nearly everything and still haven't come across anything that will do this.
Please help- it's the most irritating thing ever!
Thanks,
Phil

Try Loading the file in QuickTime and there are Options in the View section there about Fullscreen, Double Size and stuff like that

  • How do i change the resolution of my screen shots that i captured from my desktop?

    How do i change the resolution of my screen shots that i captured from my desktop?
    Thanks.

    Do you mean you want it saved with the resolution set to something other than 72 dpi when the capture is made, or do you mean you want your capture saved at a higher resolution than the captured area?
    1) If the first, there are ways to change the default capture format .png to something else, such as .jpg, .tif and a few others, but as far as I know, the resolution will always be 72 dpi. You can use Preview to change the resolution of the captured image under Tools > Adjust Size. You will get this:
    If your intention is to set the resolution for professional printing defaults, then change the resolution to 300. Turn off Resample image to prevent the image from actually having more pixels added. The resolution will simply be reset from 72 to 300 dpi without changing the actual number of pixels in the image. It will also print a lot smaller since the output device will now use 300 pixels per linear inch instead of 72.
    Leave Resample image on if you need to maintain the dimensions. Be aware however that scaling the image (resampling) will add a lot more pixels to the image than are there to maintain size. Expect the image to get very soft and pixelated looking when adding 417% more data to the image than it currently has.
    2) If you mean you want the OS to actually save the captured area as a high resolution image at size, that can't happen. A capture is a 1:1 grab of the display buffer. It can only capture what's there. So if you capture a 700 pixel x 500 pixel area, that's all the bigger it can be without scaling it afterwards.

  • Can you change the view of album covers when playing music on Apple TV?

    I love the coverflow view when playing tracks on my mac. Its what I always wanted to be able to see the album cover as large as the screen while the song plays.
    However on Apple Tv its "not quite" the same!
    I feel that the text is too big (taking up half the screen) and although the album cover takes up the other half, the text and album cover keep switching sides of the screen every 10 seconds or so which i find a little annoying! Does anyone else find this annoying or just me?
    Of course I love my mac and apple TV however i cant find a way to change this view when music is playing. I would like coverflow on apple Tv just like on mac. A full screen showing the album cover, with smaller text to show artist and track and not to switch sides of the screen!
    Does anyone know what im banging on about and can you help!

    Oh dear! but thank you for a quick reply and your kind welcome!
    I thought the side to side motion would be to protect the screen somehow but i dont really like it!
    Not at all relaxing when playing a soothing song to see the graphics flipping back and forth.
    Its great technology, amazing, but could this viewing option be changed somehow by the wizards at apple.
    I might need to hit the off button on Tv and just listen on speakers otherwise.

  • How to change the resolution of a file?

    Hi, can someone please help me. I am working with illustrator CS and I am exporting a file as a jpeg. I need to print that file so when i export it i am changing the resolution to 150dpi. When i open the file in windows picture manager edit it and save the changes the file turns black and it prints a black page. This only happens when i change the resolution to 150dpi or higher if i leave it at 72dpi and make changes i don't have problems it will save fine. I have tried many different things but no luck. Hope someone here can help me. thank you.

    Sounds like an issue with your image editor. BTW if you plan on editing the image you should use a lossless format from Illustrator to the editor then save as a jpg. Each time you save the jpg more and more data gets thrown out until it unusable.

  • Black screen while playing video in itunes

    I am currently running itunes 11.1.2.32 on a windows 8.1 (64 bit) pc. I had to reinstall itunes when switching from 8.1 preview to 8.1 due to download issues. I now have a black screen when playing videos in itunes. Audio still works. Suggestions?

    I've had the same problem. Tried switching from the built in Intel video to an nVidia graphics card, reinstalled cursed a lot.
    Finally got it working the hard ware. Built a virtual XP machine (like the SP support system in Windows 7). Installed itunes in the virtual machine and can now watch my movies and tv shows. Both itunes and Windows 8.1 seem to be "not ready for prime time". I wish MS wouldn't have tried to make a computer look like a cell phone/pad.

  • In Lightroom 4, is it possible to change the resolution when exporting to Facebook?

    Is it possible to change the resolution when exporting a photo to Facebook using either the regular plugin or Jeffrey Friedl's plugin?  I can't seem to do it; I only have control over the image dimensions, not the resolution and the dimensions, as you can see in the screen shots below:
    I have control over both when I export to my hard drive (or a flash drive, etc.), as you can see below:
    I can't find the option to control the resolution when I try to export to Facebook.  Before I got Lightroom 4, I would create whole new low-resolution files of images I wanted to post online using Photoshop.  The image size settings I would use are a longest edge of 10 inches at 72ppi, and I would like to continue doing this.  If I can only set the longest side to 720 pixels (I can't even seem to set the longest edge to an inches value - I can only choose a pixels value) and not change the resolution from 300ppi to 72ppi, then my photos' longest edge will only be less than 3 inches long (right?).  Thus, I really want to be able to upload low-resolution photos to Facebook via Lightroom with the ability to change both the resolution and the image dimensions.  Any idea how to do it without having to export to my hard drive first?  Thanks!

    I'd be inclined to set it to zero so it obviously doesn't mean anything
    You can set it to whatever you like, and it makes no difference. Most of the time (depending on how you saved it), it will still open as "72".
    When you save an image for web, the resolution is usually stripped from the file. It's simply not there anymore. That's probably what happens in the Lr facebook module, and that's why there's no entry for it.
    But when you open that image somewhere else, that default of 72 ppi is assigned. Most apps need to know what to do with a file if asked to print it out. So there is a default, and that's usually 72, mostly by convention. With that default ppi, it prints out at a comparable size to what you see on screen at 1:1 display.
    And when people see that, they think "hey, web images are 72 ppi". But they're not - that figure is just inserted there by the opening application.

  • How to Change the Resolution on the Monitor? Model HP 2011X- (20" flat screen monitor)

    "input signal out of range, change settings to 1600 x 900 -60HZ" How to make this change?
    I have a HP desktop PC and I recently purchased a HP 2011X  (20" flat monitor). Initially, I hooked it up to the pc and it worked and I did not have to install anything. But the other day, I ran the Microsoft's Fix-it-Center and ran the resolution problem detection even though I did not have any problem with the resolution. Within 5 seconds, a dark black screen appeared with the following message:
    INPUT SIGNAL OUT OF RANGE
    CHANGE SETTINGS TO
    1600 X 900 - 60HZ
    It displays this message and then the monitor goes to sleep. I press the buttons at the bottom of the monitor and from time to time, it displays a resolution screen that shows the monitor's resolution is not 1600 x 900 but that HP recommends that setting. However, I cannot change anything and that small screen with black background disappears in a few seconds. I cannot see anything else and I have tried the following:
    - Turned the PC on and off several times and the message is still there
    - Unplugged the power to the monitor and re-plugged it and no change
    - Unplugges the video cable from the PC to the monitor and re-plugged it and nothing
    Please help. I cannot see the PC screens at all even though the PC is on. All I see is the black background screen with white text with the above message. How do I fix this when I cannot see the Windows screen or from the monitor.
    Thanks,
    Bob

    Hello IE_PC_User,
    Let's try to get your computer to the boot options and go into VGA mode to see if you can change the resolution then.
    Start up your computer and start tapping away at the F8 key.
    Once the computer presents you with the boot options choose the VGA mdoe.
    It should boot up and everything look really out of place. Set the proper resolution and then reboot.

  • How is the resolution variable or when would we change the resolution of an image and why?

    How is the resolution variable or when would we change the resolution of an image
    and why?

    It all depends on the output:
    * for viewing on screen 90 -120 ppi
    * for printing on a laser printer 180  -300 ppi
    * for printing on a desktop printer 240 - 300 ppi
    Some people claim 360 ppi is optimum but I don't see any difference compaired to 300 ppi at least not with the naked eye...

    Hi fabiangs,
    I'm not sure that I follow. Are you saying that when you open a PDF file in Acrobat or Reader, that the display resolution changes automatically on your system?
    What version of Acrobat/Reader are you using? Do you see this same issue in other files/applications?
    I look forward to hearing back from you.
    Best,
