Video not playing fullscreen even tho MP is fullscreen. (1 Viewer)

[eightysix]

I am running Vista, Nvidia 9600GT. MP1 RC2 with SVN updates.

MP starts fullscreen when Windows starts. No prob. When I play a movie, the video does NOT occupy the whole screen: it occupies about 3/4 of the screen, and is "docked" at the top left. So the actual video image reaches 3/4 the way across and 3/4 the way down the screen. Tried lots of movies - all the same.

I have tried a couple of different decoders, renderers. I am currently using the decoders that come with PowerDVD 8 Ultra.

Also if anyone can tell me why MP is "enlarged" when I exit from a movie (i.e. the bottom and right sides of MP are off the screen - and I have to restart MP to get it to correctly fill the screen). I would be greatful also.


Thanks

Eightysix.

Have you got any kind of postprocessing going on.
What is the resolution of your screen you are outputting too.

Hi!

No post processing that I know of. My screen is running 1920x1080i. I tried other (lower) resolutions and the video still occupies the same amount (approx. 3/4) of the screen. Thanks for taking the time to think about this! And it doesn't effect MP extending larger than the desktop either. Oh and yes, i tried different video card driver versions. Everything is A-OK if I just play a video with PowerDVD.

That does not sound good

Perhaps you could post some logs for the experts?

How do I gather the logs?
