Hi does anyone know how to play a video in omxplayer with the aspect ratio of 16:9?
Can you tell me the input because i tried

Code: Select all

 --display 16:9
and it didn't work.
By thinking like an engineer you can create a raspberry pi.

I got the PI model B, B+ and PI 2 model B.
When will I get the A? I don't know.

If the video resolution already is in 16:9 there is no reason to tell omxplayer anything.

What is the resolution of your video (and your display ) and what result did you get ? ( "it didnt work" doesn't really tell us anything )
