It is unclear how you are using DDraw to display your video. Which APIs are
you calling to change the stretching of the video? Which APIs are you using
to decode the video?

Win CE 5.0:

Does ddraw.dll support any other resolutions than 1/1, 1/2 and 1/4 without
streching the image?

When you set the size of the video window to height 5/6 of full screen and
width 5/6 of full screen. ddraw.dll shrinks the video input to 1/2 and the
streches the image to 5/6 by 5/6 of full screen. Thereby you get the same
picture quality as you would if the video window size would be 1/2 x 1/2
of
full screen. The video image is just streched. I want ddraw.dll to only
shrink the video input to 2/3 of full screen so the picture quality
doesn't
become so poor. In pixels full screen is 800 x 600 px. The size of the
video
window which we want to use it 560 x 370 px.

Is it possible to improve the quality of the picture somehow?
