Hope someone can help me out.
My firm bought large LED display panels so they can rent them to various TV stations, fairs, etc.
I got assigned to work on the computer playing the video.
Basically any software player will work, and I can output through S-video, DVI, etc.
So here is the problem: the configuration of screen panels is 4 rows of 5 panels, since this is not a square formation, the aspect ratio is not right and I miss a part of the picture when playing a video. What I need is a software video player that would allow me to move and zoom the picture so I can make it fit the panel in a best possible way.
Can this perhaps be done using the graphic drivers? The computer to operate it will have the latest ATI Radeon card.
Eventually, we'll receive another row of panels and the problem will be gone, but right now I need a temporary solution. Thanks in advance!
Full Version: Best software video player
No reply? The computer arrived and I'll try using VideoLAN, but I was hoping someone knew of some more specific program.
MPlayer has a large number of video filters that you could use for that.
I have Mplayer with mpui at home, but I can't get the advanced settings through the ui. The comandline interface is too complicated.
zoomplayer maybe?

+1 on zoom player.
mplayer definitely.
You'll just have to read the manpage and workout the commands you need. I do something similar for videoconferencing on a big plasma. Here is one of the command I use to place and size the video stream exactly how I want it:
START /MIN mplayer -geometry 256x192+768+208 -dr -rootwin -noborder -vf pp=fa rtsp://ukcamera1/mpeg4/1/media.amp

I would like to say Zoomplayer pro because it has so many options, unfortunetly all I get with it are bugs. Windows media player is the best right now.
Did you say LED panel or LCD panel? If your talking LCD then the next question you should now be asking is what is the best decoder to use with it. I wouldn't recomend Nvidia's.
