I'm having trouble playing xvid 624x352 files. I'm getting stretched content horizontally, with bars on the top & bottom.
Here's the setup:
On a clean install of XBMC on the AppleTV 2.2, from the ATVusb-creator, then ran a XBMC loader update, then a XBMC update to Atlantis Beta 2.
I'm on a 1080i TV setting for the ATV. I launch XBMC for the first time, and it's this tiny window. So, after figuring out that it's the Resolution setting and where that lived, I set it to Fullscreen.
Great! We now have a full size image, and it's not tiny.
I've set up my NAS SMB mount, and it will play xvid files nicely.. but doesn't do the right thing with scaling.
Is the XBMC supposed to do a better job of scaling things? Or should I just set the default movie mode to something else?
Have folks come up w/ the optimum settings for your generic 624x352 xvids? (That's a pretty standard resolution from various sources, including EZTV, etc.)
-- Sorry - I tried to append this to a related thread and I think it got lost.
