Is there anybody who has a smart idea, how to automatically change the screen resolution, when launching MP?

I use multires http://www.entechtaiwan.com/util/multires.shtm and then set up the following batch file to start mp, this changes the resolution for MP and then resets it afterwards.

"C:\Program Files\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal\multires.exe" /800,600,32 /exit

start /w mediaportal.exe

"C:\Program Files\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal\multires.exe" /restore /exit


Just put the multires.exe file in your mp folder and adjust the res (i'm on 800x600, 32 bit colour) to suit.

Hope this helps

If you use an ATI-GPU then you can use the ATI Catalyst driver and create Profiles including Desktop-Shortcuts that change the resolution and launch MP afterwards. That's what iam doing at the moment but i would greatly appreciate if MediaPortal could switch the resoulution itself.

    Thanks for your reply. In my configuration this setting is set to "no". To avoid misunderstandings, the MP window size changes on screen resolution changes, MP always fulfills the whole screen. Also, the home screen buttons size is adjusted. Only the font size is not adjusted to the new screen resolution.

    Did it work? And sorry, I should have mentioned that I was just running a test with zap2it at the command line. I'm not using MP.

    indeed, the pointer value is out of the 32bit integer range. Just be patient while I do a thorough fix of all the occurences
