There are three options for scaling 16:9 content onto a non-16:9 video wall: The result becomes worse with the farther the mismatch between ratios is. What happens if you try to display 16:9 content onto a video wall that is a different resolution? While it can be done, the end result is not ideal. Or say you just want to display 16:9 content onto a custom-ratio screen. Maybe your advertiser sent video wall content in the wrong ratio last minute. So 2×2, 5×5, 10×10 walls created with 16:9 panels all equal 16:9 ratios. In this case, a panel count of 1:1 actually equals 16:9 total ratio, since the screens are scaling up from 16:9. In contrast to 1:1 square panels, there are also individual panels that are 16:9 already, such as with LCD video walls. As you can see, the only exact way to achieve a 16:9 with square panels is with 16 panels wide by 9 panels high. The above sizing configurations will be close enough to a 16:9 ratio to be undetectable to the naked eye. Here are video wall sizes within the 16:9 safe zone: Your panel count width divided by your panel count height should equal in between 1.65 and 1.85. Square Video Wall Panel Count 16:9 Formula: Panel Width / Panel Height = Between 1.65 and 1.85 Display quality can be affected by pixel pitch as well. You want your video wall to be close to a 16:9 ratio and the 16:9 content will automatically stretch to fit the display. Luckily, there is some wiggle room with 16:9 ratios. Square (1:1) LED panels may pose a challenge when creating true 16:9 video walls, because the only way to achieve an exact 16:9 ratio is to have 16 panels wide by 9 panels tall, or an exact multiple of such. In many cases, video walls will be built into the 16:9 format to allow for seamless display of 16:9 content.
