Hi Carl-
I'm not sure what's going on with the DCP-o-matic scaling options....
I remember Carl announcing and doing a complete rehaul of the scaling options a while ago.
But I think we need to accept that there is no easy way to do it - there are simply to
many constraints to follow, and the nature of much content being letterboxed doesn't
allow for too much choices being done automatically.
Maybe there is a way to describe the scaling options in a straighter way, but we will
never get away from a choice of aspect ratio numbers in a table. Some things simply need
knowledge to be done properly.
Maybe Carl can overlay a Flat, CS and 16:9/1080p grid in the preview window? I always find
the visual reference of the preview window helpful.
