Hello guys, I have a question, I am using own3d but the problem is that my monitor is 20" square and the highest resolution it supports is 1400*1050, which for most of my viewers that have higher resolution monitors looks really crappy... Is there anything I can do without changing my monitor ?

What would you want to stream in the area that's not on your monitor?
It's possible, to have a sidebar with a mediafile or something, but would that be useful?

So it isn't possible somehow to stretch the game to a higher resolution ? I just want the game to be streamed in full HD for example, but my monitor doesnt support that resolution t.t

It is possible to stretch the game, but it would look weird.
If you use Xsplit and you set resolution to 1920 * 1080, and you select the stream area on your screen, you can stretch it out.

It's quite useless though.. It won't look better if that's what you're going for.

I tried to set resolution from xsplit to 1920*1080 but even with this resolution set it still streams on the resolution that I play with, mb im making some mistake somewhere ?!

The software is capturing your actual pixel data, your video card hasn't rendered the pixels that don't exist on your display, thus, there's nothing to capture, nothing to stream.

There's no point in streaming a higher resolution than what you actually play at. Either the image has to be upscaled (= resized to the higher resolution), but this process is fairly intensive to do realtime and the image-quality will not improve over just streaming your native resolution. The other alternative is to add dummy space around the actual screen-area, which doesn't benefit the viewer either.
Such flammable little insects!
