[confirm] Weirdly broken text in some applications (1 Viewer)

[greybox]

Sometimes I see some wierd broken text in My Videos IMDB reports and My News applications. I could not find a lot of regularity, but here is the steps the testers can try to see if the problem is reproducable:

1. Create a file in your movies folder and name it "Alice in the Wonderland.mkv". You can rename one of your mkv files or even create a text file with this name, we are not going to play it. ;-)
2. Highlight it with a cursor and select option "3 IMDB".
3. Scroll down 1-2-3 pages and you will see the file name in the top right corner is covered with some sort of snow, and the bottom line of the screen may be completely or partially black on blue instead of white on blue.

I don't know if this is some local hardware or driver issue, or maybe more common.

I was able to reproduce it.
Scrolled with down arrow. Saw the same problem. After a bit more scolling, it is fixed again. Then scrolling back up it happened again.

Funny thing is that I also have 9600GT GPU - maybe we should just wait for someone with another GPU before we change thread title to "confirmed"...

AW: Weirdly broken text in some applications

No.. I guess this confirmed. I also saw this in myScoreCenter when I made an skinfile for that. And I got an ATI card.

Two posts down catavolt confirmed that the team is working on that.

Hi greybox

As I said on the other thread, we only fix showstoppers in release candidates. No release is ever 100% bug free - we do the best we can but at the end of the day we have time-lines to meet and many other priorities. I can't find the mantis right now but please trust that it will be fixed in time.

That's all right as this is not a showstopper. It would be nice to have this thread properly marked and have mantis reference. Thank you for your hard work!!
