Default Can get audio but no video/tv in fullscreen?

hi all,

i have a weird problem ... I'm trialing MP on XP Sp2. I have audio but am unable to get video or live tv to display in fullscreen. The decoding is working correctly (I assume) as I can watch the video or tv in the small "preview" window however when I attempt to switch to full screen output the screen goes blank and I only get audio?

any ideas?

cheers - Neil

Hi!

I have had a similar issue and setting a slightly different Aspect Ratio (within the settings plugin, GUI Calibration,if I remeber correctly) did the trick. In older versions, the XML-file containing the calibration often would be corrupted, setting the Aspect ration to scale TV in to something like 1:160000000 ir so :-).

Hope it helps,
Stefan

I had the same problem. The problem was fixed when i went back to the default setting for the fonts. That is the font size.

Try changing them.

Hey There,
I also had the same problem. I fixed it when i dumped my old DVB-T card. I had serval problems with my Hauppauge Nova-T, cause it was an older release. I would be glad to get this card back if it wasn't the problem

MfG

hiya,

thanks for the tip on the aspect ratio .. it worked however the system crashed before I could exit properly. Now I can't get it to work again - it sounds like that xml maybe trashed. do you know where to locate it?

cheers - NJ
