[QUOTE="Phrak, post: 71755, member: 10986"] Ok, this post was originally posted on Saturday, but it got lost with the recent problems. Here it is again, thanks to IE6's cache: Deleting the font folder has no effect. The folder just gets recreated the next time that MP runs. Also, this problem doesn't appear to be a problem with DirectX or Windows, but more with Media Portal. I've done some further investigation and here's what I've found: 1) The problem does not exist pre 0.2.0.0 release. 2) The problem is only evident when the system font size is set to anything other than default 3) The problem has not yet been fixed as at v0.2.0.4 release. 4) The problem exists regardless of the codec used. 5) The problem exists regardless of the skin used. And here's what I've found fixes the problem Either A) Set your system font to normal (not really practical on a TV-Set where you can't then read the text!) or/ B) Copy your old (pre 0.2.0.0) MediaPortal.xml file to the new installation of MP, and re-run the MP config program. So the question now begs, what's changed in the MediaPortal.xml file that causes such a big problem? I've got no idea, but PM me or reply here if you'd like a copy of my working MediaPortal.xml file.
