Blu-ray playback:


I did look into the font issue a bit closer, and when i run MP fullscreen, i do see them less sharp/clear (mostly when focus is on the text). Created some captures:

I have been able to reproduce the scaling issue (seen in focused items). Seems that it happens only if no video playback has been done inside MP. Right after 1st video has been started the scaling artefacts go away. Can anyone confirm that? It seems to be a bug (not sure where yet).

To help to troubleshoot the issue please provide comparision screen shots from RC and test builds - just the cropped Vidéo texture will be enough.

Fixed a really stupid copy & paste error when setting up the rendering states:

	  DXNative.FontEngineSetSamplerState(1, (int)D3DSAMPLERSTATETYPE.D3DSAMP_MINFILTER, (int)D3DTEXTUREFILTERTYPE.D3DTEXF_LINEAR);
	  DXNative.FontEngineSetSamplerState(1, (int)D3DSAMPLERSTATETYPE.D3DSAMP_MINFILTER, (int)D3DTEXTUREFILTERTYPE.D3DTEXF_LINEAR);
	  DXNative.FontEngineSetSamplerState(1, (int)D3DSAMPLERSTATETYPE.D3DSAMP_MINFILTER, (int)D3DTEXTUREFILTERTYPE.D3DTEXF_LINEAR);

Where as it should have been:

	  DXNative.FontEngineSetSamplerState(1, (int)D3DSAMPLERSTATETYPE.D3DSAMP_MINFILTER, (int)D3DTEXTUREFILTERTYPE.D3DTEXF_LINEAR);
	  DXNative.FontEngineSetSamplerState(1, (int)D3DSAMPLERSTATETYPE.D3DSAMP_MAGFILTER, (int)D3DTEXTUREFILTERTYPE.D3DTEXF_LINEAR);
	  DXNative.FontEngineSetSamplerState(1, (int)D3DSAMPLERSTATETYPE.D3DSAMP_MIPFILTER, (int)D3DTEXTUREFILTERTYPE.D3DTEXF_LINEAR);
