Now that I have decent monitor arm ( Workrite Poise™ ),
I'm switching out of portrait mode more often.
[ Portrait is best for coding, text. Landscape is better for videos. ]
My monitor sensor tells my ＜CPU/GPU/"Dell Display Manager"＞
if it should switch to portrait or landscape.
My software ( Jeff-Relf.Me/X.CPP, Jeff-Relf.Me/Games.CPP ) adjusts,
but my video player ( ZoomPlayer ) doesn't ( it blocks the switch ).
So I use the following ( right·click·filename ) registry settings.
From "Jeff-Relf.Me/Win_8_.REG.TXT":
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\MP4_File]
@=".MP4 file"
"FriendlyTypeName"=-
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\MP4_File\shell]
@="Tall"
[-HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\MP4_File\shell\Play]
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\MP4_File\shell\Tall]
@="＞ Tall"
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\MP4_File\shell\Tall\command]
@="C:\\__\\EXEs\\Zoom_Player\\zPlayer.EXE /X:0 /Y:2140 /W:2160 /H:1700 \"%1\""
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\MP4_File\shell\Wide]
@="＞ Wide"
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\MP4_File\shell\Wide\command]
@="C:\\__\\EXEs\\Zoom_Player\\zPlayer.EXE /X:1680 /Y:460 /W:2160 /H:1700 \"%1\""
; 1920*2 - 2160 1080*2 - 1700
Now that I'm watching more HD ( 1080p ) videos in fullscreen mode,
landscape ( 2*1920 x 2*1080 pixels ), I noticed some tearing.
The solution was:
Turn off the monitor's "DisplayPort 1.2" setting --
so my CPU/GPU only has to display 29 frames per second ( 29 Hz ).
Videos look wonderful, no jitter at all... smooth as silk.
How does my code[*] handle resolution changes, you ask ?

// and, oddly, that means the screen resolution is changing.
