[QUOTE="Librarian, post: 167596, member: 54233"] [b]TV-Server Version[/b]: [b]MediaPortal Version[/b]: 0.2.2 [b]MediaPortal Skin[/b]: bluetwo,bluetwowide [b]Windows Version[/b]: xp [b]CPU Type[/b]: athlon 2600 [b]Memory[/b]: 1 gig [b]Motherboard[/b]: shuttle [b]Motherboard Chipset[/b]: nforce2 [b]Motherboard Bios[/b]: [b]Video Card[/b]: geforce4 onboard Hello there i have a general setup problem on my bigscreen tv. I have a 16:9 thomson 150cm diagonal. the tv itself has 4 modes normal zoom zoom + adjust heigth stretch everything on 16:9 Now so far i send out 4:3 since its all i can do 800x600 in svga, i set the tv to zoom since like 95% of stuff i watch is in widescreen. The zoom basically "eats away" the black bars and stretches the pure video content. this works just fine. now same as with the wii the widescreen mode in media portal is different. It expects you to stretch all content to 16:9 unfortunately NONE of the modes zoom,normal stretch and so on create a 100% correct apect ratio :(. not even close the best was correct in the middle but distorted faces left and right... So i had to switch back to bluetwo and just let the tv "eat" the black bars.. I was wondering if there was a theme that looked similar to this -------------------------------- -------------------------------- XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX -------------------------------- -------------------------------- So all the gui elements are within the X area. I have a perfect aspect ratio but of course the gui elements like the progress bar i cant even see. If there is no theme like this how do i move the progress bar, system bar down, the information bar up ?? Thank you very much in advance for taking your time to answer Kind regards George [/QUOTE]
