Question to Samsung users

The Samsung BD-C5500 Blu-ray player seems to use 16:9 images for video files - which means when Serviio goes off to get metadata from the theMMovidDB.org the DVD covers get squished.





Is this the same on other Samsung devices (i.e. TV's)?

If not can you pst some pictures of what yours looks like.

Cheers,
Mark

It's ok on the TVs (at least on my B650)

Petr,

What does the DLNA Spec say about these images....I want to raise with Samsung but be good to be able to say they are not to the Spec.

Cheers,
Mark

7.1.5 JPEG TN Format Profile
Requirement [7.1.5.1]: The DLNA JPEG_TN media format must follow the requirements of
7.1.1.1 DLNA JPEG_SM baseline format except for the following requirements.
In an EXIF file a thumbnail image can be stored as a thumbnail component in addition
to the primary image. However, in the JPEG_TN format profile, the thumbnail image
must be stored as the primary image data of the file.
Maximum Resolution:
The resolution of the image must not exceed 160 pixels in the ImageWidth field and
must not exceed 160 pixels in the ImageHeight field
The DLNA JPEG_TN profile must be used only for a thumbnail representation of
some content.

This is all it says, nothing abut stretching it into a specific aspect ratio.
