MythGallery does not scale images properly to fit screen

[Michael Hughes <marynya@…>]

MythGallery scales images to the width of the screen while ignoring the height. On a wide-screen monitor, camera images, which have 5:4 aspect, will have about 1/3 of the image off the bottom of the screen if they are "landscape" mode and 2/3 if they are "portrait" mode. Disabling EXIF support does not affect this. This function worked properly in 0.25-beta and I think it worked in 0.25-rc although I did not have that one for very long and may not have noticed. At any rate, this seems to have developed close to the end of the release process for 0.25.

So you downloaded 0.25pre? That makes no sense. Hmm, maybe the release script needs a minor tweak.

I cloned the repo and built "checkout v0.25" which produced the same result. "--version" says "v0.25" for this one.

Discussion in the dev list suggests that the version file is wrong for non-git builds.

I can not reproduce this. My suspicion is that you had the zoom mode set, and this overrides the normal aspect ratio. All of my gallery pictures work fine for me, whether 4:3, 5:4, 16:9... all on a 16:9 display.
