[QUOTE="rsbrux, post: 809182, member: 49539"] I am having the same problem with MP and Win 7 with an ATI card using the latest drivers (Catalyst 11.9, IIRC). Screenshot attached. It happens whenever MP wakes up or starts before the TV is on. It only happens on the HDMI interface (using DVI->HDMI adapter). On VGA (using DVI->VGA adapter ) I can't even get full 1920x1080. Instead the whole Win 7 screen is smaller, (1280x768?) but centered. I can confirm the remark in a previous post, that MP displays correctly if I wait for the MP screen saver timeout (blank screen after 5 min. in my case). When MP is reactivated, the GUI size is correct. It seems to me that the easiest solution would be to provide a way to tell MP in configuration what resolution to use as an option instead of taking the Windows value. If this isn't as easy as I think, how about just providing a keystroke to toggle blank screen on and off? P.S. I found a workaround, but need to add it to macros the on my remote control. Changing to windowed mode and back to full screen (2 x Alt-Enter) seems to restore correct full-screen display. However, the WAF is suffering terribly from this and other relatively minor problems.
