Which video should I use with my Macbook Pro?
The short answer is 16:10. I checked all of the screen sizes for each Macbook Pro and their aspect ratios. I found that every one ever made was 16:10, which was news to me. I found this out halfway through making the chart, but finished it for posterity.
When screen burn or a stuck pixel comes up, there is sometimes nothing that can be done to fix it outside of replacing the screen. Before seeking hardware repair, it’s best to try and resolve the issue with software. This is where screen burn or stuck pixel fix videos come in. Deciding which video to use can be a challenge, but the only rule is that you get a video which takes up the entire screen. The purpose of this chart is to help identify which video to use, but for the Macbook Pro the answer is 16:10 every time.
