All,

If I start creating a skin with a 720x405 (16:9) background image will it work with MP.
I have started a little on this and it seems as if the skin engine is biased towards 720x576 (4:3).

Cheers!

DMAN.

you will need to tell the skin for what resolution it is made.
DO so in references.xml.
1 of the first lines.

That was it! :) I had to set it to "Maintain display scaling". I think it was set to "Maintain Aspect Ratio", which added black bars to MediaPortal when playing videos that didn't conform to a strict 16:9 ratio, I suppose. Thanks to everyone for the patience and help, I can finally enjoy videos fully.

It’s technically not possible to combine the library and folder view. This is also the case for other HTPC softwares I fear. The media can quickly organized by filters, sorting etc., it’s not about fanart. The folder view is meant just as a basic navigation feature.
