This is a great plugin. The only thing i d like to see is a generic 16:10 skin. The 16:9 that is inside the 0.6.5 cut the botton part of the screen. I have a screen with 1680x1050 resolution so a 16:10 would be cool.

Well the problem is that I don't think any of our developers have a 16x10 screen, so it would be difficult for us to create such a thing. If someone out there managed to create a 16x10 version of our generic skin though, we would definitely include it from now on with our releases.

I think i could probably reset my resolution to 1680x1050, but I think the picture would look a little squashed? Because the physical dimensions of my TV are 16x9 not 16x10.

Yes it will look squashed but you could try it only for making the skin maybe?

I ll post a screenshot for you to see what does it look like right now for me with the generic 16:9. Check the attachment.

I've done a few MP1 installs in the past and haven't had a problem, so I didn't expect one today. I just purchased a mini PC with Win11 installed. I downloaded and tried installing Mediaportal 1. I chose single click standard installation with no TV. It started working on things and I wasn't paying terribly close attention, but...

That was it! :) I had to set it to "Maintain display scaling". I think it was set to "Maintain Aspect Ratio", which added black bars to MediaPortal when playing videos that didn't conform to a strict 16:9 ratio, I suppose. Thanks to everyone for the patience and help, I can finally enjoy videos fully.
