    Hi,
    I was able to in win7 Display and my tv accepted ist. It was a Little
    Top small but for this Test it was ok.

    This can't work - the display is always going to reduce the size - you simply can't display the correct resolution on a display with less pixel.

    Hi,
    Yes. The Pixels are Not optimal alligned, but the Display
    Interpolated and the Resolution was mit Sharp.
    But the misalign of the zap Osd should have Bern better but it
    Was Not. So ther Must be a Bug with the Skin Since Former Versions
    With Even Loser Resolutions worked.


    As far as I took a look on the xml I did not recognize any faults.

    You could open it and search for this entry:
    Code:
    <control>
    		<description>TV Logo</description>
    		<type>image</type>
    		<id>10</id>
    		<posX>365</posX>
    		<posY>300</posY>
    		<width>190</width>
    		<hight>190</hight>
    		<keepaspectratio>yes</keepaspectratio>
    		<texture>#TV.View.thumb</texture>
    		<keepaspectratio>yes</keepaspectratio>
    	</control>

    Then change <posX> and <posY> to your delight. I don't see any need to change the values in sweborns installer as long as no native 1920x1080 user reports problems. Can't try it because I have not TV (again...bad :D)

    New version of the Avallanche 1.5.0.4 in the first post.
    I was not quite happy with the look of the old OSD so I have completely redesigned it for both TV and Video. :)

    Edit: There is a animation sliding (closing) issue in the OSD topbar i can't solve. So if anyone can help me with this I would be happy.

    I've just given this a whirl and installed 1.5.0.4.

    How do I get the background to show on the Live TV screen on home screen? I just have a white background..

    Never mind, I figured it out - I had it set to use fanart, I changed it to single image and it's ok now..

    Hi,
    so 1.5.0.4 has the same issue with the ZAPOSD misaglignment. So in fact that Avallanche is made for 1920x1080 i'd like to know if this is also the case for the old avallonis i used with MePo 1.2.3.0 before. When i now edit the XML for the ZAPOSD, do i have to keep other files in mind when trying to fix this?

    I am asking this because i have an Image of my old Installation with MePo 1.2.3 and Avallonis and i'd like to compare both files to find a good start.

    Thanks!

    The skin skin is developed for 1920x1080.

    Hi shorty, thanks for the info.
    So there's another proof that it's not a Resolution based Problem. I'll now have a look at both Skins and hope to get it fixed.

    Thanks again für your help!

    It would be very useful if ANY other user would report this as a bug. Hello world....

    Hi,
    i just compared the TVZAPOSD.XML from Avallonis with the one pur_berger sent me here a few Posts ago. There are significant differences, that make me wonder:

    Avallonis:
    Code:
    <control>
    		<description>background</description>
    		<type>image</type>
    		<id>0</id>
    		<posX>366</posX>
    		<posY>704</posY>
    		<width>1190</width>
    		<height>376</height>
    		<texture>tv_zaposd_bg.png</texture>
    	</control>
     
    	<control>
    		<description>TV Logo</description>
    		<type>image</type>
    		<id>10</id>
    		<posX>477</posX>
    		<posY>800</posY>
    		<width>150</width>
    		<height>120</height>
    		<texture>#TV.View.thumb</texture>
    		<keepaspectratio>yes</keepaspectratio>
    	</control>

    Avallanche:
    Code:
    <control>
    		<description>background</description>
    		<type>image</type>
    		<id>0</id>
    		<posX>368</posX>
    		<posY>300</posY>
    		<width>1183</width>
    		<height>298</height>
    		<texture>tv_zaposd_bg.png</texture>
    	</control>
     
    	<control>
    		<description>TV Logo</description>
    		<type>image</type>
    		<id>10</id>
    		<posX>365</posX>
    		<posY>300</posY>
    		<width>190</width>
    		<hight>190</hight>
    		<keepaspectratio>yes</keepaspectratio>
    		<texture>#TV.View.thumb</texture>
    		<keepaspectratio>yes</keepaspectratio>
    	</control>

    Do i understand right, that PosY defines the height for the object? Then ist clear to me why the ZAP OSD is in the middle and not at the bottom.
    LAter, wehn i am at home i'll try using the values from avallonis. I'll post the results.

    regards,
    carsten
