v17 Kodi UI cut off on edges
#1
Everything was ok until my HTPC updated to the Win10 creators update. Now I have an issue with the UI, where it extends past the edge of the screen. I figured it had just messed up somehow so I realigned the UI in the Kodi settings and now it's perfectly aligned. However, if I tab out of Kodi, my desktop now extends past the edge of my screen. The work around I discovered was to put Kodi in windowed mode, when you tab out the screen goes black (as if you're changing resolution) and comes back with the desktop displayed. I don't know if this is a Windows or a Kodi problem, but I'm hoping someone can offer some assistance.

Specs:

Amber skin (not sure where to find version)
Kodi 17.0-RC3 (UI @ 1080p)
Win10 x64 (desktop 1080p)
Intel G4560
8GB DDR4
4k Samsung TV (connected via HDMI)

I wasn't sure if the log could capture anything relevant for this problem, if I'm mistaken though, I'll add that too.

Many thanks.

If you have a 1080p monitor and your desktop size is set to 1920x1080 but the display is over-scanning, then it comes down to windows desktop, or the graphic engine (driver). Considering you just updated windows, it's just too convenient for me to suggest windows is behind this. (try plugging into a different HDMI port) and Watch the MS pages or your graphic card supplier for the fix. In the meantime you can use Kodi controls for the work-round.
