I was afraid of that. I suspected that you are rendering the frames fine, and sending them to the mvp fine. I assume that's when the snap is taken. I guess it;s something in the dongle, though I'm pretty sure it happened with last versions dongle too.

I will get a camera and start taking screen shots from two TVs... I hope they will show up on a couple of different TVs

I have found 1.2.9 is more prone to problems with "bad" screen coordinates. I suggest if you don't have it that you get the MVP Position plugin and confirm everything is alright, updating config.xml as necessary.

Been there, done that, built the function into ZProcess too! (oops don't want to confuse the troubleshooting -- none of the previous screen shots involves video of any type, mpeg or transcoded)

I'm confused? MVP Position only changes the screen for menus etc. It won't touch the mpeg playback.

OK. I do not want to confuse this thread but here it goes. One of the features in ZProcess is it's own video positioning so it can reclaim area lost by overscan etc. It can also help with fixing tubes that don't get circles right (it squishes and stretches. When set right, it will also transocde on the fly mpges and anything else I throw at it. Anyway, rather than running up and down the stairs a hundred times getting the positioning just right, (always wanted a plugin for that) I got it to lock onto the parameters that MVPScreen Position gets. So when you set the screen rect, you also set the rect for ZProcess to show transcoded video. (Works really, really good)

Well, I'll be $%*%#%# damned. I got home to start tweaking, searching, trying etc, and the default blue doesn't look all that bad.

I thought it might be some sort of static build up or something. The MVP was unplugged for the day.

The trick will be at the exes. I'm pretty sure that I will still need to use the Tweaked blue skin with all fonts set to 13. Doesn't look half bad. I might need to tweak some field placements.... But I digress

I will also try using the mvpmc dongle and compare...
