AM_ASPECT_RATIO_MODE Enumeration

AM_ASPECT_RATIO_MODE Enumeration
Specifies the aspect ratio of a video image in a display window.
Syntax
typedef enum _AM_ASPECT_RATIO_MODE { AM_ARMODE_STRETCHED, AM_ARMODE_LETTER_BOX, AM_ARMODE_CROP, AM_ARMODE_STRETCHED_AS_PRIMARY } AM_ASPECT_RATIO_MODE;
Members
AM_ARMODE_STRETCHED
No aspect ratio correction.
AM_ARMODE_LETTER_BOX
Put the video in letterbox format. Paint background color in the excess region so the video is not distorted.
AM_ARMODE_CROP
Crop the video to the correct aspect ratio.
AM_ARMODE_STRETCHED_AS_PRIMARY
Use whatever mode is currently set for the primary stream. This value is valid only for secondary streams.
Remarks
The AM_ARMODE_STRETCHED member causes a video stream to occupy the entire region of the display window when the window is resized, possibly stretching the video. The AM_ARMODE_LETTER_BOX member eliminates video stretching and distortions by keeping the aspect ratio consistent and painting the excess areas of the window a background color. The AM_ARMODE_CROP member also prevents stretching, by cropping the image if necessary.
