Subject: Feature Request: "Stretch to Fill" Option for Game Recording
1. Feature Request: Option to Stretch Recordings for 4:3 Resolutions
I frequently play games at a 4:3 aspect ratio stretched to fit my full screen. However, the current Steam Recording feature captures the native aspect ratio, resulting in black bars on the left and right sides (pillarboxing).
This disrupts the viewing experience, as it does not match what I actually see while playing. Currently, I have to use third-party software (like Adobe Premiere) to manually stretch the footage, which is time-consuming and contradicts the goal of Steam Recording—to make sharing easy and instant.
My Suggestion: Could you please add an option in the recording settings to automatically "Stretch to Fill" (remove black bars) for screenshots and videos?
Note: I request this as an additional toggle, allowing users to choose between the "Native Aspect Ratio" and a "Stretched" view based on their preference.
Thank you for your time and for considering these improvements to the Steam client.
Best regards,

关于优化Steam游戏录制功能(支持4:3拉伸全屏)
1. 建议在录制/截图功能中增加“拉伸画面”的选项
目前,当我在玩4:3分辨率的游戏(并在显示器上拉伸全屏游玩)时,Steam自带的录制和截图功能会自动保留原始比例,导致回放时左右两侧出现黑边。这与我在游戏内看到的“全屏无黑边”体验不符。
为了获得全屏效果,我现在不得不使用PR等第三方软件进行后期裁剪和拉伸,这违背了Steam录制功能“省时省力”的初衷。
我的请求: 希望能增加一个可选功能,允许用户将录制的视频或截图直接拉伸至全屏(消除黑边)。我希望这是一个补充选项,让用户可以在“原始比例”和“拉伸全屏”之间自由选择。
感谢你们的考虑。
