Hey all,

So I've been trying to start using mplayerc instead of core, namely due to incompatibilities between core and winamp2, along with some instabillity issues.

One thing I LOVE about core media player is the AR correction hotkeys. For 16x9 content, just alt+7 corrects the AR automatically, and alt+0 restores original AR.

Obviously media player classic can do AR corrections, but I've yet to see how to assign a hotkey like alt+7 to simplify it. It's a bit tedious to do view->video frame->Override Aspect Ratio->16:9. That, and when you change the AR, it sticks next time the player opens.

Is there a way to do this? I love media player classic otherwise.

Thanks in advance

Thats a great idea. I would like to use hotkeys to change aspect ratio (default/4:3/16:9 etc.) (for example for mpegs with 352x240 and 352x288 resolution...)

View -> Options -> Keys -> Next AR Preset ... assign a key to it there and done, you can also use multimedia keys on your keyboard or mousewheel or whatever you want. With Numpad and CTRL+Numpad Keys you can also stretch video into any dimension.
