Force desktop resolution/aspect[2]
|
In order to not have a stretched image, change the desktop resolution to 1728x1080.
If 1080p (1920x1080) display (or resolution) is used, the image will stretch horizontally from 1728x1080 to 1920x1080
Alternatively the NVIDIA/AMD/Intel graphics control panel can be used to force the aspect ratio.
