1:1 pixel mapping is a video display technique used in some devices, such as LCD monitors. A monitor that has been set to 1:1 pixel mapping will try to display an input source without scaling it, such that each pixel received is mapped to a single native pixel on the monitor. This will result in a black border around the image (windowboxing) unless the input resolution is higher than or the same as the monitor's native resolution. This technique is helpful if it is desired to stop a video from being stretched or distorted by the monitor.
