Frontrow change aspect ratio

I think frontrow adjusts to the aspect ratio of the monitor it's on. So if you setup the monitor with screen resolution that fits 16:10, front row should adjust to it.

I'm guessing you'll just have to look at all the options for the monitor resolutions, and see which one is closest to 16:10.
that would be 1600:1000, but if that's not an option, check some of the others. It may not be possible.
You can do this
Math formula..easy
First Resolution / 16 = A
Second Resolution / A = B
If B = 10, that's the one you want.
So with your numbers above
1650 / 16 = 103.125
1080 / 103.125 = 10.47
close, but no cigar....
try that with the different ones offered, and select the closest.
Also, it may give you more options to make the monitor you want to use Front Row on, the primary monitor.
Hope it helps,
Brian
Let me ask, could you please describe your setup....
computer CPU, and monitor you are using.
Macbook pro, with 19 inch widescreen, or iMac with built in, or Mac pro with 24", something like that.
Might help me to understand why you can't get it to display the way you want.
