    Media player with ZOOM

    Does anyone know of a media player which allows you to zoom in on a video, so that you can chop the edges off a widescreen video and watch it in 4:3 mode?

    Please don't give me any crap about the benefits of widescreen - I know them all. Fact is, I can't watch these videos because they're too small to see from a distance.

    I use Zoomplayer. You can use the scroll button on your mouse and just about select any amount of "zooming" that you want. Works well with my TV out.

    Excellent!! Thanks. I tried this program and it works perfectly. For some reason I can't zoom with the mouse wheel, but + and - work the zoom for me, so it's all good. The interface is a bit clunky, but I can overlook that

    Glad to help. What version did you get? I found the newer version to be crap, so I use 3.00
