I know you can request features or improvements to StreamedMP. But I feel kind of silly making a request just for something that I would like. So I wanted to know what some people thought in the community before i made the request.
Also you may know a fix or workaround that would be just as useful and not waste any of the developers time.
Windows Vista and Windows 7 (maybe XP) allow for you to adjust the overall font size in the OS to scale to a percentage of the screen. If any of you have used the OS portion of your HTPC on your TV @ 1920x1080 you know you need to be a little closer to read some things in the OS such file names and folders, but not other things such as Web Browsers since that is handled independently and will not scale with the OS fonts.
However Mediaportal and StreamedMP do seem to scale with the OS fonts. I recently discovered this after the last update. I like having the OS fonts at 125% of the normal size but that translation into Streamed MP cause the fonts to be very over sized and crowded.
I would like to suggest to the authors that they lock the font size and not scale off of the OS fonts.
Here is what it looks like at 1920x1080 with 125% and without. As you can screen 2 looks the way it should.
