HVR-1600 ATSC video is bigger than screen

[dittrich]

Running 1.3.11 (upgraded today) and installed an HVR-1600 card this morning.

I got through the Map Channels to EPG guide part so I do get OTA HD channels to play in Live TV...however, the upper left quarter of the HD video is all that displays and it fills the screen. Playing OTA HD recordings does the exact same thing. Using F7 to change the ratio doesn't help. Cable SD (on the analog tuner) & even the OTA digital SD stations (on the HD tuner) display correctly.

The computer is hooked to an LCD TV via a VGA connection. The video card is an Intel 82945G Express with 128MB & max resolution is 1024x768, which is what it's running at. Cable SD & even the OTA digital SD stations display correctly.

Playback works in the WinTV software that came with the card, though it does letterbox HD channels.

Would a new video card be a solution? I'm planning on ordering this card from NewEgg this week.

Thanks, in advance!

I'd try another video decoder and/or video renderer. I'm sure one of those will help.

I had to install .Net 3.5 to get the option to use EVR as a renderer.

Using that & InterVideo as the decoder did the trick!

Thanks for the assistance!
