[QUOTE="oh_noes, post: 704141, member: 106565"] Hi All, I have a dedicated, always on HTPC which I built myself. It's an AMD 780G, AMD low power CPU and runs Media Portal connected to directly to the TV via HDMI. This board was recommended for an ideal low power, low heat HTPC setup. I have a habit of always turning the TV off via the physical button on the front (NOT via Remote, ie NOT standby). When I do this, and then turn the TV back on -- StreamedMP or MediaPortal "loses" about 300px from the right of the screen. it's configured to use 720p resolution which the TV support. From looking at the screen, it doesn't cruncate the 300px, it looks like it scales the picture to roughly 980×720. The only way to fix it is to reboot. Upon rebooting when it drops back to Windows Taskbar, the taskbar and desktop resolution is fine and takes up the full screen. Upon returning from reboot, it has the correct resolution. Is this a known bug? Is there a workaround? Is this a MP or StreamedMP bug? Thanks again for the great work on Media Portal.
