ViewModeSwitcher plugin (Version 0.3) (1 Viewer)

Hi.

the screen resolution is not important for your rules. You have to use the sizes of the video streams. i.e. 720x576 for PAL. You can find the right values in you log file (like explained in the first thread)

der teufel steckt im detail

I'm gettin PAL with 720x576 and AR of 768:576 / 1024:768... So it's in the logfiles
The 4:3 does work great, only the 16:9 wont work for me... For example:

4:3 PAL --> it uses my rule of my last post...

16:9 PAL --> it corrects the AR, that the original 16:9 PAL is now a 4:3 PAL (u can't zoom or something else)

like is said before... only a rule for the 4:3, no one for the 16:9 and it works fine

Haven't seen a DL for this since March. Where is the latest version, and which RC1 SVNs can be used with it?
Also, why can't I find it in the "Plug-Ins" wiki?

Hi rsbrux.

Maybe you're looking at the wrong section?! The version 0.3 of the plugin is a mpi file (MediaPortalInstaller), because of this is is not located in the "plugins" section of the repositry but the "MediaPortal Installer (MPI)" section.

Here is the direct link (should be also in the first thread): MEDIAPORTAL - free MediaCenter HTPC Software - ViewModeSwitcher 0.3

Problems

Hi Lars,

could you please help me getting your great plugin working here. I tried a lot put no chance for me. I tried with Elecard Mpeg decoder and now with Dscaler because I was not sure if the plugin supports Elecard.

My log seems to be different like you describe in your first post to get the correct values.

Thanks

do u have a second display? (e.g. iMon or a little touchscreen in your case)

 

[sogge]

yes I have iMon LCD display (Antec Black case)

 

[OnkelChris]

i think, this is the problem... the plugin recognize the iMon instead of your screen... try taking the mediaportal screenselector (configuration->basic settings)
