In this mode, the video screen is scaled equally to fill in the screen and black borders will be filled in along all sides.
BackgroundImage	String	No	URL of the background image of a stream. This parameter is valid only when StreamId is set. When the specified stream specified for a customized layout does not exist or the streaming is interrupted, the background image specified by this parameter is displayed. We recommend that the resolution of the background image be the same as the output video resolution. If the resolutions are different, the background image will be stretched or compressed to fully fill in the screen. The background image can be in JPG or PNG format. The maximum image size is 5 MB. If the background image download fails, the setting will be invalid. HTTP and HTTPS URLs are supported.
