Hello!

I have a problem with viewing video on the retina macbook pro.

When looking at a 720p video on the macbook pro 15" retina it takes up ~90% of the screen width, this with the setting "normal size" in vlc or "actual size" in quicktime.

This is scaled however with some blurring added since it actually takes up the surface of 2560*1440 pixels instead of the 1280*720 it should.

When editing a 720p video in final cut pro the video is unscaled and takes up the ~45% of the screen as it should.

So, my question is, is there a viewer (or setting in vlc or quicktime) where you can watch video unscaled in the 1:1 mode?

Bump :) no one else think that this is annoying or have found a solution for it?
