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.

Also, the home screen buttons size is adjusted. Only the font size is not adjusted to the new screen resolution.
