Synopsis: video black on first start
-----------------------------------------------------------------

After lauching MP and playing a video the screen is black.
This applies to all skins.

I have to go the settings and adjust the pixel ratio, even if I leave the old setting... When I go back the video is fine..
Seems to me that MP looses the setting or something..

Anybody an idea?

Can someone help?

The problem persists!
Even when I go to standby the video is black.
when cycling between the zoom/strech modes only Original works.. all the others are black..

I have to enter screen area config and come back..
What is wrong here? Updated to last build..

    delete all files with "calibration" in MP's root.

    From which country are you? What is your decimal seperator?

    I still have that problem.

    I am from Germany, "," is the seperator..

    I deleted the callibration files, nevertheless it does not work.. I always have to go through the callibration in MP.

    I asume it must have to do something with my resolution:
    I use NVIDIA drivers and select overscan compensation. That gives me a physicall resolution of something like 1244x648 or so..
    I asume that confuses MP when starting..
