When Live TV plays 16:9 SD channels, they are rendered incorrectly at 4:3 on most of my clients. I’ve attached logs and screenshots for reference. HD channels render correctly at 16:9 on all clients.
See test results below.
-
Windows PMP correctly plays SD channels at 16:9
-
Android tablet correctly plays SD channels at 16:9 (see logs attached for reference)
-
Android TV incorrectly plays SD channels at 4:3 (see logs attached).
-
Android phone incorrectly plays SD channels at 4:3 (see logs attached)
Looking at the logs, I noticed that on the working device (my android tablet), “direct play” fails so the client switches to transcode. In this case, the content displays correctly at 16:9. Also, my Windows PMP client plays correctly at 16:9.
However my android devices that use “direct play” are squashed to 4:3 (see screenshots and logs). Please help!
Thanks, Elton.
