Created attachment 77451 [details] Vampire: The Masquerade - Redemption intro video scaled
When fullscreen resolution is set to something low and different from aspect ratio of the monitor, winewayland scales it up, but positions it on the left, rather than in the middle of the screen and leaves the mismatching area transparent.
This happened for example in the intro video of Vampire: The Masquerade - Redemption. The video is 640x346 and my screen is 2560x1440.
See attached screenshot for how it looks.
It would be better if the scaled window was positioned in the middle, with some black bands for areas that are caused by mismatch in aspect ratio.
Even better if this behavior could be configurable, i.e. where to position, what to use for bands, like transparent, solid color / what color, etc.
In such cases winewayland currently marks the window as fullscreen and relies on the compositor to properly place it on screen, add black background etc. This behavior is mandated by the specification but some compositors don't implement it yet.
If this is on KDE Plasma then see https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=461063.
