Windows Media Player - Aspect Ratio problem

[Sokar415]

Hey again everyone

I got a another problem this time. I have got a file here I want to see, but isn't able to enjoy to its fullest cause... well... its all stretched. I know this little neat trick to cure that by going into Tools > Options > Devices > Display > Properties, and change the settings there.

My problem is that its not working. I got a new computer since I last used it, and it sees it doesn't work on this one. Does anyone know another way around this? or at least a fix so it will work? Or just know something?

I'm a little lost here

What video codec are you using? FFDshow for example will allow you to resize the video. Or you could try another player such as Zoom Player that will adjust the AR.

Well I have the Combined Community Codec Pack which has always been working for me, and it has always allowed me to resize the display in WMP, except for now

get rid of that and use the Vista Codec Package.
