Overscan issue - but only during playback - truant - 2012-12-06 Hi, Had an XBMC system for ages, I think it's running on top of ubuntu 11.10 now, although not 100% on when I last updated it. Probably when I upgraded to Eden whenever that came out. It's a Zotac ION board underneath. Either way, it's been working fine for years. Anyway, nvidia's powermizer was doing my head in and I finally decided to do something about it - but nothing I'd tried seemed to be working so I thought I'd update the nvidia driver to see if that helped. I did so, installing the latest 310.19 version and rebooted. Overscan was immediately wrong so I went into the XBMC's system settings and reconfigured it. All appeared well. Except now, when I play videos, it's like I hadn't made a change to the overscan settings. The OSDs are slightly offscreen, as is the video (I can tell because the BBC logo on get_iplayer'd content is cut off. Changing zoom settings to a custom zoom (0.96) brings the video back OK but not the OSD. Any help or advice would be much appreciated. RE: Overscan issue - but only during playback - Wozza_au - 2012-12-07 Hi when playing the video thats not lining up, bring up the osd and then video options~calibrate screen set the screen to the video then "save for all videos" You may have to do it a few times for different formats been a while so not sure if it was need for all formats/res Also on my samsung tv I had to set the screen ratio to "Just Scan" rather than 6:9 as every now and then when the system locked up or was rebooted I had to do it all again RE: Overscan issue - but only during playback - truant - 2012-12-07 Ah, brilliant. That worked. It's always so long between setting up XBMC stuff that I forget how to do things! Thanks so much. |
