Hi

Installation & configuration screens have some problems on my computer. There are overlapping of items on configuration screen and some visual flaws on installation screen. Check the pictures.

Mediaportal plugin installer has weird white borders.

Mediaportal installer has weird gray box on upper right corner. I have seen this installer on my friend's computer and he had only one mediaportal picture, not several in tile mode like I do.

TV server configuration has tuner drop down box too high.

Mediaportal configuration has 'Switch to standard mode' only partly visible. 'Preferred subtitle language' overlaps dropdown box and 'Aspect ratio correction mode' text is only partly visible.

My tv's resolution is 1368x768. Is this problem? Has anyone similar problems?

Br, Testimies.

    What is your Windows DPI settings? (on XP: right click open area on desktop, select properties, settings, advanced)

    If it not set to "normal" can you retry after changing to normal?

    :D You were right! (How did you know it???) My dpi setting was set to 120. I had made text & icons bigger so I would see everything from my couch. Changing it back to 96 and everything was perfect. (I'll have try to live with the little text..)

    Glad it worked.

    How did you know it???
    Your screenshots looked similar to what I had on another program another pc a while ago. Took me a while to figure it out back then :)

    Is this a bug? Should I report this to somewhere?

    I understand that configuration screens have overlapping when text is bigger. Couldn't the whole configuration screen be bigger also when using bigger text. Vista has 96 and 120 DPI as default choices. I'm sure that I'm not last one who will run into this..

    At least those problems with installer & plugin installer should be fixable.

    Yep, it's a bug in MP AFAIK. I use 150 DPI under Vista and when I stop video MP user interface losses it's original resolution and aspect.
