Since the first days I use mp, I'm running my HTPC with the resolution of 720x576. Beginning with mediaportal-cvs-02-01-2006--19-57 I have the follwing problems:

1. No picture in myTV, only sound
2. No picture in myVideos, only sound (for all file types, also avi)
3. Strange looking program symbols in epg

Here's the picture of the epg:

In the packedgfx files in the skin folders the symbols look ok.

I already discussed the problem in the chat and pasted my logs there. But if you need them here is a logs.zip containing all files . There is no error.log.

If I switch the resolution to 640x480 or 800x600 everything works again.

If I copy mediaportal-cvs-01-31-2006--19-18.rar to mp folder everything works again with 720x576.

The bug is confirmed by another user here: http://nolanparty.com/mediaportal.so...?p=75634#75634

Hi,
I've had this to, had to remove Calibration"something".xml from MP folder, was something with the pixelratio.

Regards
Roy

Thank you for that tipp. I will give it a try when I'm back home again.

Nice. It's working again!

Thank you for the advice, ronilse.

I deleted calibration720x576.xml. After starting mp again I enterd the settings plugin to calibrate the screen again. I needed to switch the apect ration with the s key in myTV and myVideos after that to get picture again.

Probably this line in calibration720x576.xml is causing the problem:

<entry name="pixelratio">0,9999999</entry>

After the new calibration this value is 1 now.
