    Monochrome, Titanium, Indigo, Aeon Wide and all other skins gives me quite a blurry screen, compared to earlier versions. see attached screenshots. Looks like the skin is stretched, somehow.

    Bad screen:

    Good screen:

    In SVN revision 20227 everything looks fine. I don't know if it makes any difference, but I use the "autosize window mode to skin (breaks teletext)" option in "General settings".

    Hmm...seems like the problem lies in changing between skins from within MediaPortal, perhaps the change between 4:3 and 16:9 skins is the problem. Closing MediaPortal and changing the skin from the Configuration solves the problem. Until I change skin from within mediaPortal.

    I see you are running in windowed mode. Do you have the same in fullscreen mode ?

    Yes. The only way to avoid it is to uncheck the box as mentioned earlier.

    The problem can also be seen if you run MediaPortal in a window (with the checkbox unchecked), and then resize the window to a different size. This behavior did'nt exist in the SVN i mentioned, or in RC2.

    Could someone check to see if they get the same problem?

    I had the same problem in RC2, when switching between fullscreen on/off. I only do this during debug so it wasn't that big of a deal.

    I haven't seen it in RC3 yet i think...

    Great, nice to know I'm not crazy as I thought I was the only one able to reproduce this problem :)
