Thumbnails in XYx64 are bad

I mainly use XYplorer as a media library and have Thumbnails viewed at 600x800. When I was using the 32 bit version, the thumbnails were Crisp and fit to the desired frame (zoom to fill, zoom to fit). Now I'm using XY 28.00.0700 (64-bit) and I refreshed my thumbnail cache to start fresh and save some space, but the thumbnails have multiple issues. Some images have black bars on the sides, most are blurry or not zoom to fit/fill properly. I'm using windows 11 home and a screen scaling percentage of 150% (I use a TV).
This is not too big an issue for me and I'm sure a quick optimization fix for the future.

Sounds strange. Got a screenshot?

I have attached a screenshot, for the most part the image definition is fine saying blurry was a stretch but it is true that many images that used to fit nicely into the desired format now have either black bars on either side or just are too thin.

Zoom to fill works fine here with the latest x64.
There is also a color issue in your Configuration screenshot. Are you maybe using a 3rd party Windows theme?

Then it's probably your own settings. You can adjust them on Configuration | Colors and Styles | Highlights & Dark Mode to make the list selections more readable.

The main issue was jus the scaling of the image to thumbnail size. In the 32 bit xyplorer it would upscale things automatically for most images to fit, but when I switched to 64 bit I just notice some inconsistency in this process, I'll just manually upscale images from now on. I'll put this issue to rest for now, thanks for your help.
