Aspect Ratio Settings for Go Live

Currently on 21:9 monitors, go live appears to letterbox the top and bottom of the stream. Not ideal, but understandable for efficient video encoding. However, there are a lot of games that don't explicitly support 21:9 and letterbox the left and right sides, resulting in a letterbox on all four sides of the stream. Either autodetection of 16:9 content or a way to force 16:9 mode for streaming would be welcome. Workaround is to temporarily set the monitor to a 16:9 resolution, but that's not really ideal.

Thanks!

  i agree! as someone who primarily uses an ultrawide and streams games to friends, this would be very useful.

  Same thing here, but with 32:9!

  VALORANT could benefit from this feature since it forces letterboxes.

  I totally agree, here with a Samsung 32:9 "Super UltraWide", when I share to discord my friends say the quality is shitty because of the ratio... Please help us Discord ! :)

  I also support this option. this is very useful especially in 32:9 resolution where its extremely wide and the black bars are basically half the stream due to it being forced to 16:9. currently finding ways to do it but no avail
