MVP - how to resize image?

[reedmikel]

I have an MVP connected to a LCD projector and would like to be able to zoom the image smaller during Live TV, playback of recorded shows etc. I saw the VerticalZoom and HorizontalZoom settings in Config.xml, but changing them had no affect. Any tips for a newbie?

I've seen lots of threads talking about some utility called FFwdShow, Can anyone explain it in simple terms as to what it is used for within GB-PVR, how to install it etc? Please keep in mind that I am new to GB-PVR and all these plugins and utils. Will it address my resizing of the MVP's image?

TIA,

-Mike

GB-PVR has no control over the size of the video when playing back on the MVP, so there is no setting you can tweak or anything. Any changes to this would need to be done by Hauppauge.

This ffdshow resizing only applies during playback of AVI files.
