Thank you for your reply, and I do understand what you are saying.

However, I believe it should be possible to achieve what I asked in software and would still like to hear from someone at Cyberlink to get their opinion.
I have PowerDVD 18 and am thinking of upgrading to 19. Can you tell me if version 19 has been updated to allow viewing blu rays in full screen and un-cropped on an ultrawide monitor? I'm using a Dell 38 inch monitor with a resolution of 3840x1600.

I do not use TrueTheater and am not interested in the TrueTheater Stretch options, which do not solve my problem anyway.

The current options are:
- Always maintain video aspect ratio (this leaves black bars top, bottom, left and right of the video)
- Apply stretch (stretches the video horizontally to fit the screen)
- Crop to Fill

Crop to Fill is closest to what I am looking for but, if the aspect ratio is less than the monitor (which is most common in movies), the top and bottom of the image is cropped.

I would like the option to view the entire video image (so no cropping) while maintaining the aspect ratio, even if this means black bars left and right.

Depending on the source dimensions, the video should either:
- have black bars top and bottom if the aspect ratio is greater than the monitor
- completely fill the screen (no black bars at all) if the aspect ratio is the same as the monitor
- have black bars left and right if the aspect ratio is less than the monitor

If this is not included in version 19, would you please consider adding it in an update (preferred) or a later version?

Thank you.
