Font size issue with autostart (1 Viewer)

[ibizalover]

Hi everyone,

I just upgraded my TV and my graphic card.

I made a clean re-install of the computer and a clean install of MediaPortal 1.1.0. RC3.

MP is working fine excepting one little thing: when Mediaportal autostarts with Windows, the font size is too big and the text doesn't fit in the buttons. I must close MP and start it over again to get it work properly.

I can't make a log report as the issue only occurs at windows start-up and then when I launch the MP-Debug Mode it starts MP properly with the good font size...

What can I do?

Thanks in advance.

Have you changed the windows default font size from 96dpi per chance.

Maybe try putting a 10-20 second delay on MP start, which might help give the video card driver time to fully initiliase.

But I would definitely delete the cached skin files (MP config\user files).

Re : Font size issue with autostart

Thanks for the tip. I set up a 20 seconds delay then it worked.

So I played a little bit with the time and with a 4 seconds delay it's still working.

Strange but as long as it works... As I didn't change anything in the skin etc in MP, I think my issue may be due to the fact that I changed the text size in Windows...

Anyway, thanks a lot again.
