So the amount of the image that gets cut off will depend on how closely the image conforms to the available screen space. I gather you are trying to use images that are way smaller in width?
Heres a modified file that centers the image but won't fill the screen: DOWNLOAD
Put that into the 720p directory and overwrite. In future releases I may add an option to either scale or center backgrounds.
Hi Scarfa, thanks for responding so quickly. Yes, I'm displaying digital photos with a 4:3 aspect ratio on a widescreen TV (16:9).
Your fix now displays the full image, but as you say it doesn't fill the screen - there are large black regions either side of the image.
I think I'll revert to the standard 3.06, but it's just that this version seems to scale / fill differently to version 2.0. In both versions, images are displayed to the full width of the screen; in version 2.0, the image is centred vertically, whereas in 3.06 it seems to be top-aligned.
Perhaps I can PM you some screenshots?
Thanks,
Mike
