My knowledge about this kinda stuff is limited. From Dadeo's post I get that you can somehow tweak stuff to get a sharper image by using overscan in someway.
I use catalyst 8.12 on my machine here and I have a tree node called "tv properties" which you seem to be lacking. Might also have to do with the different setups because I actually use a TV out and you do not technically speaking from a graphics card point of view.
-------EDIT------
By the looks of that image it seems that you can also manually adjust this "overscan" and "underscan" (the arrows). Again no real experience with all of that.

Hi,
the weather-display (condition) looks good now, I added some hardcoded text to the xml to test it - not more linebreaks!
I can see the whole RSS feed when moving it 10 pts/px/whathever up. Changing the height of the plot in the video-overlay to 60 also solves my issues there.
One small issue in the wheater-view:
Is it possible to clean it up a bit in order to avoid overlappings?
I really understand if the above changes won't be integrated into the trunk. It's no problem for me to maintain some small local patchsets which I can apply whenever a new aMPed release arrives
Thanks & Regards,
moh

That's great Moh, what did you hard code in the xml for the weather condition to display properly? I had the same thing happen on my weather today! And on the first line there was only one 5 letter word!
We have made the RSS feed 10 pts higher, moved a few things around. I'm glad that works for you cuz there ain't no more space! I'll check out the Video OSD at a height of 60 and see if I can live with that.

in the weather i would maybe move the weatherchannel logo out of the screen and then use the whole width to the 5 days announcement... just a thought...
after a mess up of my Os i reinstalled windows and MP with the skin and the genre view and everything works fine not sure what it was but i will keep my eye on it
couple of other things i get this random white line down the top left of the screen i cant work out were its coming from, also could you make the episode information screen always visable while browsing episodes i just feel it would be better that way

Happy, glad to hear your genres/channel views are working now. I think the random white line is because you have the RSS Ticker turned on but have not provided any weather info. You can either add weather (and it will display where the white line is) or you can go into MP Configuration, Process Plugins, and disable the RSS Ticker. Since the plugin is supplied with aMPed, MP automatically turns it on.
Re TVSeries Episode view, I''ll check if it is possible to control that just for Episode view

Sorted, disabling the ticker gets rid of the line
Cheers

We just did a complete overhaul Blue3++ -> aMPed
And not to dismiss your idea but I actually like moving pictures as it is! I was thinking redoing tvseries in such a style, so I guess that will be a bummer for you.
We'll probably keep providing the old tv series style when and if a tvseries overhaul get's done.
