Confusing resolution stuff...

If I have a 1080p monitor at 16:9  but play 21:9 1080p videos like movies, would it still be 1080p? Same with 4:3 scaled screens playing 16:9 and 21:9 videos at 1080p...

If your monitor is 1080p and your 21:9 movies have a horizontal resolution of 1920, you should be fine.

Just don't mess up the aspect ratio, I hate when people turn 4:3 videos to 16:9 just by stretching them.

The stars died for you to be here today.

A locked bathroom in the right place can make all the difference in the world.

The video gets as big as it can until it hits the edge of the screen, and fills in the rest with black bars.
