Describe what you are trying to accomplish and why in non technical terms
Show cameras in their native aspect ratio (such as 4:3) in the live view without black bars being added to make the tiles a standard 16:9. The black bars waste space and look ugly.
Describe the solution you'd like
Camera tiles automatically size to the correct aspect ratio of the camera stream allowing 4:3 streams to be packed more closely saving wasted space. In the example below (manually sizing and repositioning tiles with inspect element) I show how this allows me to fit 4 cameras in a row instead of 3 - saving space without changing the viewable area at all.

After:
Describe alternatives you've considered
I have taken on board the comments on issue #12882 however the difference in my case is ALL my cameras are 4:3. Therefore the black bars are a huge waste of space as I would be able to pack all the same sized camera tiles in much more closely without the black bars. It is not possible to change to 16:9 streams in the camera firmware settings and resizing with go2rtc would stretch and distort the view.
Additional context
This has been requested by other users previously but was dismissed as "There's no way to avoid wasted space". My example above shows this is not the case and shows a real world application of the improvement.
