Hi, when i change the zoom on a bradcasted 16:9 show to 4:3 the people are short and fat, in other words, it looks like MP isnt scaling down properly.

I am running MP on my TV at 800x600

Is this a widespread problem or is it just me?

Have you used the screen calibration function in MP?

MP1 MP2 WMC skin: Recording menue dissappears after wakeup DE

Hi @Greenhorn7, to help narrow this down a bit, I suspect that when the recordings menu entry is missing you are probably also missing menu entries for Videos, Movies, Series and Images too. Can you confirm? Does simply navigating to a different screen then back to home again cause the recordings menu item to show up? Those menu...

MP1 MP2 [solved] Some videos break the aspect ratio of the output resolution to TV (even the MePo GUI changes aspect ratio) DE

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.
