Post subject: | 1080i scaled down to 800x600 problem |
I'm attempting to hook up my Myth box to an older projector that I inherited. The projector is 800x600 native and will actually display 1024x768, but it's compressed and doesn't look that great. However, if I send 800x600 from the Knoppmyth box it's cropping the right 1/3 of the picture. Going back to this posting here: http://mysettopbox.tv/phpBB2/viewtopic. ... highlight= I see this posted by Caballo: caballo wrote: OK, I figured out the exact problem:
It seems that MythTV/Mplayer (using R5B7 a.k.a 0.19) has a bug when scaling 1080i content to a screen resoultion of 640x480 (and to a lesser extent, 800x600). The fix (if you are using TV-Out) is to set your desktop resolution to 1024x768. Apparently, this desktop is large enough for Mplayer to properly scale the 1080i signal without cropping off any of the edges. Has anyone had any luck with proper scaling or just viewing 1080i content at an 800x600 resolution? Is this bug fixed in 0.20? Thanks in advance! |
