Hello...,

here you find a third version of Noletterboxpatch - without letterbox in replay:

http://race.eolc.de/...nlivereplay.zip

But think about it: The replay buttons will be unvisible. If you go with the cursor at the place where normally the buttons are and click you see it for a moment and it reacts. But It's hard to control the replay.

F1HistoricEsports uses this noletterbox version for livestream with using of replaydirector. In this case the replay buttons are not neccessary, because the control of the focus does replaydirector automaticly.

By the way… Thanks to Lee for the patch. I use it in all my online races. And I don't believe I could eliminate the letterbox in replay if I didn't had your versions.

So how on earth do these people do this?

I record all my movies with black bars in game and in replays and cut them afterwards with video editing software.

when i apply the patch, the progress bar still blinks at the bottom

I remember with my older PC (from VISTA times) I saw the progress bar and some displays flickering, with the new one (Windows 10) I see no displays.
Maybe it has to do with graphic settings.

Its not always easy or smooth and gpl can be very frustrating with issues like these but hang in there JZ , the rewards are totally worth the sweat and toil.

I use the same trick as Stefan, 128% zoom on replay footage to get rid of the black bars.

If you look very closely you can often see the image of a "full screen" replay video is a bit soft compared to real full screen gameplay footage.
