[App] SamyGO Screen Resizer

[sbav1]

Hi,
Simple application I recently developed, for resizing / adjusting picture proportions in Samsung B-Series TVs (european, non-CI+ models). It has some additional features, not originally present in B-Series TVs, like "1:1 pixel mapping".
I nicknamed it "AR Fix on steroids" . It's intended to work for any video inputs, regardless of the source.

More info in included README file.
Test version (not much tested yet); typical "Samsung quality" code, ie: many bugs & missing features.

Edit: new version (v0.3) available for download, old version removed.

Thank you! Its realy good app to watch 3:4 television format and adopt screen for our needs. It is what i was reaally missing for TV.
Don`t you think you need better picture for your app? As mooras86, he makes nice icon for you

Suggestions:

• More comfortable settings menu
• settings load from file (any chance to store to?)
• Some general used format list - here are a lot of settings for horizontal and vertical proportions...
• Store formats for separate channels to avoid manipulations every time you change channel

I realy like your app

Hey,

Really good work! In fact, there is the fonction that I want since a long time: a mode to remove the cropping for SD channel.
There is a 1:1 mode for 1080i/p channel but not for 576i.
With your application, I can resize the video to the perfect screen size!

It will be interesting to make myself a list of favorite aspect ratio or cropping size and to store it or to load it when the TV starts.

I have SamyGo Extensions installed in TV memory (/mtd_tlib/GGame/SamyGO) with nfs and smb shares actived. How can I install the resizer without touching or uninstalling SamyGo extensions?
Thanks

1. sbav1, you are a hero
first arfix what's usable on my UE..B7020

just 1 little problem, i can't use the tools menu, up and down makes pic changes and no navigation (not realy important)

@msurg
copy Resizer into /mtd_tlib/GGame/ (same way as you did it with SamyGO folder)
set in

Code: Select all

/mtd_tlib/GGame/SamyGO/etc/init.d/90_90_injectso.init.dis

Code: Select all

libraries="/mtd_tlib/GGame/Resizer/loader.so" # add your libraries here

and rename

Code: Select all

/mtd_tlib/GGame/SamyGO/etc/init.d/90_90_injectso.init.dis

to

Code: Select all

/mtd_tlib/GGame/SamyGO/etc/init.d/90_90_injectso.init

next time you start the extensions also Resizer will be loaded

thnx
arris

Thanks for the feedback, everyone; I'll post updated version in a couple of days.
I'm a little surprised that it actually works on LN* models and CI+ models . Good to know; it looks like SdVideo_Settings_t structure is well preserved in different firmware branches.

Wow, that will be nice thing to have.. but quite a challenge; it may be well above my skill level. Are there any known methods for checking current TV input source and tv channel ?

@arris69:

That's strange; remote control should just return to the "normal" behaviour after exiting resize mode (single <blue> keypress).

@msurg, @arris69:

Frankly, I don't quite understand what are you guys talking about .. I guess it's about some method for installing content library apps in TV models without Game menu (???).

@khaivq:
> Could you add support for screen panning?
On "to do list" allready, should be implemented in the next version.
