Sujet: Black bars - Options?
Other than setting Letter Boxing to "Zoom", what can I do about older video files (4:3 aspect ratio?) that have the black bars on the sides of the screen? I read up on this a bit but, unless I'm misunderstanding, the ideal option of blurring the bars isn't available on x64? I'm using Win11 btw.

Blur black bars is available from extensions
 
I have Blur Black Bars here on Windows with VDJ 64 bit (b8553) but try as I might, I can't get BBB to have any affect on the output. I load a 4:3 video, enable BBB and there's no visible difference.

I've tried BBB on each deck and on the master, and the single 'strength' knob is at 100%

[edit] I've just found a six year old video on YT from Klaus, and that shows the effect being used the other way around - showing a 16:9 video on a 4:3 screen, so the bars are top and bottom.

Does it only work for top/bottom bars, not side bars?
 
Should work for both
