MP error when TV off or on a different HDMI port (1 Viewer)

[paalkr]

Hi!

Would just like to add my self as a "victim" of the upper left corner behavior My HTPC runs all the time, and is connected with HDMI to my receiver, witch again is connected to the TV with HDMI. the TV and receiver are on the other hand powered down from time to time. When I turn on the TV and receiver again, MP only covers the upper left part of the screen.

MP runs on a Windows 7 64-bit amd box, with a ATI Radeon HD5670 graphics card.

Ehm, search the forum for "Half-Fullscreen" and you will find many suffering. This is a windows issue that has no current solution.

But there is a workaround:
1. Disconnect TV from PC
2. Connect using a remote control sw to the PC
3. Set the resolution to your normal resolution

(from the top of my head, more in the very long half-fullscreen thread).
