Thanks a lot @FD- for your efforts! I'm trying to use RPiPlay with an ultra wide monitor but I'm unable to set a desired resolution.

Device: RPi 4
GPU memory: 256MB
Casting device: 2019 MBP 13
Monitor: LG Ultrawide @2560x1080

The resolution remains locked at 1080p regardless of the RPi HDMI port. The only difference being HDMI port 1 introduces black bars on the side and HDMI port 2 stretches the stream to fill the whole screen.

Unfortunately updating the variables plist_t displays_0_width_node and plist_t displays_0_width_pixels_node to 2560 under the file lib/raop_handlers.h didn't help, please advice.

What are you expecting to see? How does an AppleTV handle such resolutions?

I was hoping to bump up the resolution from 1920x1080 to the monitor's native resolution 2560x1080.

Not entirely certain as to how AppleTV handles such resolutions but going through a few forums it does seem like AppleTV has issues with ultra-wide displays.

Thanks again, I'll close the issue.
