Why is my screen is cut off?

[Johnny Lugnuts]

Hi everyone!

Can anyone explain why the top and bottom of my screen is cut off slightly? I'm using a Hauppauge PVR 150 on XP SP2.

Here's a screenie:



It happens always, whether in full screen or in a small window.

Thanks,

Does pressing F7 a few times help?

What is <VerticalZoom> set to in config.xml?

How are you outputting to your tv ? graphics card ? tv-out ? what res are you using ?

The F7 key is somewhat helpful. Thanks Sub!
I can't find a reference to <VerticalZoom> in the config.xml file. I've attached it here for you.

Smoker, I'm not sure if I understand. I'm watching TV in a small window here on my PC.

Thanks for the help!

So F7 has fixed it or do you still have a problem?

Your vertical zoom was set to 1.05, but I'm guessing you F7'd something in the past and ended up in the wrong mode. F7 back to 'auto' should correct it.

Yep, that's better, Sub. I was mistakenly running in "Center cut" mode.

Incidentally, I took a closer look at the config.xml file and found the vertical zoom is set at 1.03, rather than 1.05 as you suggested. The horizontal zoom, on the other hand, is set at 1.05. Of course, I have no idea what effect would be had by changing these values so I'll just leave 'em alone.

Thanks again,

Johnny
