HT204291 Why can't I get full screen from my ipad to Apple TV

Why can't I get full screen from my ipad to Apple TV?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Mirroring won't fill the TV screen. The iPad has an aspect ratio of 4:3 and the iPhone 4S or prior an aspect ratio of 3:2, neither of these will fit exactly into a TV screen which as an aspect ratio of 16:9. The Apple TV will not zoom the mirrored image, because it may well cut off information which is situated at the top or bottom of the screen.
You may wish to try each of the settings in settings > AirPlay > Adjust for Overscan for the best setting that suits you.

    As they say in the movies, "What we have here is a failure to communicate." Or, in this case, a simple problem of semantics. If you are asking if there is a QT Player setting that will "automatically" scale both height and width of your movie to the size of your monitor screen, then the answer is "no, not unless the aspect ratio of both your screen and your movie happen to be exactly the same." What you do have is:
    1) Full Screen - display of movie without contol planel centered to monitor screen with non-display areas (if any) rendered as a user selectable solid color. Default size of movie area can be set using the "Prefeence" option to Half, Actual, Double, Full Screen (i.e., scaled), and Current.
    2) Presentation - display of movie in "Full Screen" mode with the option to temporariy modify the default display size.
    3) Half Size - movie displayed in control panel at one half the "normal" size.
    4) Actual Size - movie displayed in control panel at "normal" size.
    5) Double Size - movie displayed in control panel at twice the "normal" size.
    6) Fit to Screen - movie displayed in control panel with height of control panel scaled to height of screen less menu bar or width of control panel scaled to width of screen depending on which dimension requires the lesser amount of scaling.
    What you don't have is a "Zoom" mode in which the lesser relative dimension is scaled the the associated screen dimension with excess display area "cropped" from screen. However, if you are not a "purist" you can always "simulate" either the "zoom" option or a true "fill" screen option. To do this, simply
    a) open the "Show Movie Properties" window
    b) set the video track display setting shorter relative dimension to the associated monitor display dimension with "Preserve Aspect Ratio" option selected to simulate a "cropped/zoom" screen display or
    c) set the height and width of the video track display setting to exactly match you monitor display setting with the "Preserve Aspect Ratio" option deselected to simulate a "fill" screen display
    If you wish to preserve your movie settting for quick and easy viewing at a later time, then add the following steps:
    d) select the main movie track
    e) set the "Automatically Play" option under the "Presentation" tab to auto play the movie when opened
    f) set the "Enter full screen" option under the "Presentation" tab to hide the menu bar when playing
    g) save the movie as a reference movie in the same drive location and do not delete or move the orginal file
    Now you can view the "fill" or "zoom" version of your movie whenever you wish by simply double-clicking the reference movie icon. Hope that helps.

  • I got a new iPhone , why can't I get my apps from my cloud ?

    I got a new iPhone , why can't I get my apps from my cloud to go on my new iPhone from App Store it's asking for a credit card the apps were free and are in my cloud already ,so why is it asking me for a credit card and it will send me to my settings and that's were it asks me and if I don't put one in I can't get my apps!

    While you could create a new ID without a credit card by following the steps in this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2534, I would recommend you first try contacting Apple support to find out what you can do to use your existing Apple ID without using a credit card (if it didn't have one before).  You can set up a call with them by going to https://expresslane.apple.com, then click iTunes>iTunes Store>Purchases, Billing & Redemption>How to recover missing purchased items.  The call will be free but you will need your serial number, which you can find in Settings>General>About.  Alternatively, you can contact iTunes store support by email here: https://ssl.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html.

    WHY CAN'T I GET MY MMAIL FROM MY IPHONE?

    Without a Blackberry Data Plan you can't get email pushed to your Curve.  While on your wi-fi network you are able to access your email, but away from that link you need a data plan.

    In which case, clearly communicating the intent would have been a better solution.  The steps do apply.  A more appropriate response would have been "tried that, no change".
    Regardless of whether they fixed the problem or not, they do apply.
    If English is not your native language, I would strongly encourage you to post in your native language going forward.
    If basic troubleshooting has not resolved the issue, the next step is to take the device to Apple for evaluation.

    Why can't I see my reminders from my iPad on my macbook pro?

    Reminders will only appear in your Mac if you are using OS X Mountain Lion and you have the Reminders app. Open Apple menu > About this Mac, and check the OS X version. If it's not 10.8, you don't have OS X Mountain Lion.
    If you have OS X Mountain Lion, open System Preferences > iCloud, and mark Reminders

    Why can't I transfer rented movies from my iPad to my Mac? This is absolutely senseless and annoying! I rented the movie and  should be able to watch it wherever I decide to!! A bit more concern for your clients, please...

    These are user-to-user forums, you are not talking to Apple here. As far as I know Apple haven't given a reason, but you can try leaving feedback for them via this page : http://www.apple.com/feedback/

    How can I move my photo albums from mini ipad to Apple Mac.  I don't want photo roll

    That is not a feature of iPhoto - suggest to Apple - iPhoto Menu ==> provide iPhoto feedback.
    iPhoto for IOS and for the Mac share only a name at this time - not a data structure - unfortunately you can not currently do what you want even though it makes a lot of sense

  • Why can't I get MLP format from DVD

    <FONT face=Verdana color=#330066 size=>Hi!<FONT face=Verdana color=#330066 size=>
    Here's what I have on my custom built-by-me Win XP SP2 PC:SAMSUNG CDRW/DVD SM-352B Audigy 2 sound card (just plain A2, not ZS or Platinum)Klipsch Promedia Ultra 5. speakersPowerDVD 6 Deluxe
    <FONT face=Verdana color=#330066 size=>Why can't I get my DVD-Audio music to play in MLP format. PowerDVD will only play the DD or DTS tracks. I have PowerDVD set to 6 speakers so that it will do the decoding. Audigy 2 is set to pass through so that PowerDVD will decode. I thought this would work, but I still get just DD or DTS!! (PowerDVD will decode DTS, while the sound card can't, so why can't I get MLP?)
    <FONT face=Verdana color=#330066 size=>Do I need to upgrade the Audigy 2 to the ZS or Platinum or do I need a new DVD-Rom (or both)? :smileysurprised:

    Thanks Jeremy! I will try to see what the problem is with PowerDVD.
    I have been fiddling with this all morning. I had had problems with Creative's DVD-A player in the past, (crashed whenever it detected a DVD-A), but I thought I would work with it some more. I uninstalled the Creative DVD-A player and PowerDVD, then ran a registry cleaner to get rid of leftovers (there was a bunch). Reinstalled the Creative player - it didn't crash, but didn't recognize a DVD-A at all, no playlist, nothing. Reinstalled PowerDVD and played disk (still just Dolby Digital only). Started Creative player - it played the DVD-A!!!! (Sounds so much better in MLP!!!) I was pretty excited. So closed PowerDVD, inserted another DVD-A and started Creative player - same thing - no detection!
    Well, this is what I have to do to play DVD-A the way it's meant to be played (Adv. Res.):
    . Start play on PowerDVD.
    2. Start play on Creative DVD-A player.
    3. Close PowerDVD
    This is a real pain!!! Creative player needs a jumpstart from PowerDVD! Maybe there's a codec conflict?
    When I feel ambitious, I'll try reformatting the HDD, unless you have a solution if you think maybe it's a codec problem. I read somewhere how to determine this, but of course now I don't remember where I saw it :smileytongue:Message Edited by GadgetGirl on 0-26-2005 0:53 PM
