Hi, i transfer to use gb-pvr recently because my MC keep on generating crash report .... i get everything up and running ... but when i play the video it seem to be zoom in ... how do i fix it to see full image ... i been playing with the playback setting no luck ...i been search around the fourm ... it tell me to change the decodeing setting but i dont see the nvida ooption ...

gb-pver v0.9912
GC nvida 6600
display 16:9

thank you very much

Check TV type is set to 16x9 in the config app. You can change aspect ration of the video playback by pressing F7

thank you for ur answer ... me just try wat u told me .... is still the same ... when i set to fill ... the outside of the image is still cut .... i changed the setting to 16.9 as well .... the type of video me was playing is rmvb ... and the decoder me have is k-lite media codec pack ....

how much is getting cut off?
did you check the overscan settings?

It doesnt work in all situations, but you could try tweaking the following settings in config.xml:

Code:

<!-- overscan control (border size in pixels) -->
  <OverScanBorderX1>0</OverScanBorderX1>
  <OverScanBorderY1>0</OverScanBorderY1>
  <OverScanBorderX2>0</OverScanBorderX2>
  <OverScanBorderY2>0</OverScanBorderY2>
  <OverScanVideoAlso>true</OverScanVideoAlso>

maybe tweaking those could help you out...

i dont know where to fill in ...... can u let me see an actual example .... me is noob sorry .....

you need to edit the config.xml file (in gbpvr folder) using notepad.
search for "overscan"
change
<OverScanVideoAlso>false</OverScanVideoAlso>

to
<OverScanVideoAlso>true</OverScanVideoAlso>

k-lite codec pack is a collection of many different decoders. If you are playing rmvb files then I guess it may be using the real alternative codec that comes with k-lite pack.

do you have this problem if you play videos in other formats such as xvid or divx? If you do this we will see if the problem is a gbpvr problem or if the problem is with the rmvb codec.

than you veryr much ... i checked the config file setting is on true ... and i played some avi ... is still the same problem .... the outer part of video is cut ....

I dont understand the question you're trying to ask.

Are you saying the aspect ratio is wrong, or that your videocard is producing a picture that is too big so the edges are off the edge of your TV?

well me not sure is it the GC or aspect ratio ... but the picture shown on the tv is too big so the edges of the image are off the edge of my TV .... but when in the menu everything is fine and look beautiful ...
