Change Aspect Ratio

Server Version#:1.14.1.5488
Player Version#:3.83.1

Can’t change aspect ratio. It would be awesome if somebody new how to force aspect ratio for that 1 particular show.
The show opens up and plays normally in VLC but for some reason in plex I have huge black bars on the sides.
I tried Z , Ctrl+Z , Alt+Z , fn+Z , Shft+Z etc. Somebody in one of the forums posted all the keyboard controls but they didn’t work at all.

SOMEBODY HELP!! please…

Which client are you referring to?

PC I’m using Windows 7 > HDMI to my TV

I hope that’s what you’re referring to sorry.

It’s plain Z
But first you want to make sure that you are running the actual Plex Media Player (PMP) and not just the web app.
PMP is a separate download, available below.

And you need to use its ‘TV mode’, for the command to work.
pmp_fullscreen

Ahhh thank you kindly! I have the media player installed and I was not using the TV Layout. (I’m not fond of it)

I’m glad this was so quickly and easily resolved. However it would be nice to see this option available in either layout.

Again thank you so much! That was very helpful.
