[QUOTE="xurr, post: 493134, member: 20299"] [b]Workaround[/b] I'm sorry if I "resurrect" an old thread, but if I start a new one someone will complain that this topic has already been discussed :-) I recently tried PureVisionHD 2.5 and the "DPI issue" was pretty evident (eg. the "PureVisionHD" text was not centered in the skin background image, the "My Weather" menu entry only showed "My Weathe", etc.). Fortunately, I discovered a workaround: since fonts seems to be cached (inside the MediaPortal skin cache directory), I managed to clear this cache, set the DPI to the "default" setting, start MP (the cache is rebuilt), exit MP, set the DPI to "large". After the reboot, Windows has "large fonts" and the MP skin still looks fine. I would still like to see a proper "fix" in a future release of MP (I'm running 1.0.2), but for now this seems to be an acceptable workaround (unless I'll discover that the font cache is refreshed automatically or some other issue)...
