    Hi guys,this days i decided to use my 32" LCD TV with my new Ati HD4870 card using component connection...so far all good MP is working fine at 1920x1080 resolution and is looking fine too,but using my computer for internet or other stuff with the original Windows fonts DPI(96DPI) it's almost impossible.After that i decided to use 120 DPI but now i can't use the preview button inside TV Setup(the button is there, i can click on it but after that nothing happens),i can use the timeshift button instead and all the other buttons are working.Reverting back to 96 DPI solved the issue but in IMHO is not a real solution to this problem because nowadays a lot of people use HDTV's with computer.

    I already seached on the forum but none of the 120DPI issue threads poin to the TV-Server Setup,so if any of you have more knowledge of this issue please let me know.Thanks

    For whatever reason the directshow filters do not like 120dpi, when running a directx application\MP.

    Again this is one of the things that MP2 will overcome with its design.
