SMPlayer Support Forum

Hi!

When there's a video with uncorrect ratio (i.e. black bars on all 4 sides) I have to manually zoom into the video to fit the screen. Unfortunately the subtitle also zooms in, effectively going outside of the screen. Not to mention when I would need to move the video too - mind you, I can't do that, zooming I can do, but the move hotkeys do nothing
So, how could I make the subtitles fixed in position relative to the screen, not the video itself?

Maybe you can try the option "run mplayer/mpv in its own window" in preferences -> advanced -> mplayer/mpv. This way it's used the mplayer/mpv panscan function instead of the smplayer built-in function.
