    I have got a 1920x1080 Samsung HD Monitor. When I put the settings in the config on 1920x1080 I get in-game a 4:3 ratio in stead of the 16:9. When I put it on 1280x720 I do get a 16:9 ratio. But I want it on 1920x1080.

    Is there someone who can help me with this?

    Regards,

    Sven

    you mean the UI?
    open the config.ini and change the line
    WidescreenUI=0
    to
    WidescreenUI=1

    it drop to 4:3 if you click the Apply button after changes on the display screen. If you're all set and don't do anymore change, the ini will not change AFAIK (that's my case).

    That worked for me but i had to set the config.ini to read only to make it stick.
    Thnx.

    Just make sure that rFactor is not running when changing the config.ini - some peoples feedback in other threads are indicating that rFactor might overwrite your changes otherwise.
