If you configure W7 to recommended resolution and configure XBMC as shown in my screen shot below, it should playback in fullscreen....

@bluray - that's what he said caused the problem...

@gui - not sure why you'd want windowed fullscreen? true fullscreen is preferred for performance


RE: Use fullscreen rather than true fullscreen" - gui - 2012-04-06

@DDDamian i know the true fullscreen is preferred .
the problem is only with HD video files,and the only way to play them in full screen is having to select the "use a fullscreen window" option.

@bluray ,windows is using the preferred resolution and problem still there.

@Eldesi , this is what in ur link

"Problems with ghosting or videos which are only played back in the left upper quarter? The following ATI hack may solve it."
<glrectanglehack>yes</glrectanglehack>
how this line should be written in the advancedsettings.xml Huh


thanx

Have you tried this:

Video plays in half/a quarter of the screen:
This happens for certain settings with nVidia graphics cards/integrated chipsets and hardware decoding. To fix this, go in the 3D settings of the nVidia Control panel and stop forcing antialiasing to be used (set "Antialiasing - Mode" to Application-controlled or Off). To avoid changing the setting globally and to preserve it for other applications, you can alternatively create a program profile for XBMC and only disable antialiasing in that profile.
