That won't go well. The projector is as stupid as it could be. It will honestly
send what's shown on my laptop to the screen only stretch it to a special
ratio. If I make a wide screen version. It will be a wide version on my laptop
with the header and footer cut, I mean it won't fill my laptop screen. Then
the projector will produce a wide version on a wide ratio. It'll be 256:100
rather than 16:10. Still not what I wanted.
