Most text barely readable - frater - 2008-08-06 My plasma-TV with its strange native resolution (1080 x 1024i) might be the culprit (I don't know, can't compare), but most smaller text (like RSS-feed) is barely readable. I'm running it in 1280 x 720 (which is a supported resolution) with a component-cable. I tried it in 640 x 480 and it improves a bit Running it in 1920 x 1080 degrades the overall picture. A slightly bigger font or brighter colour (optional) might improve it. Any hope it will change? Change font size via XBMC/Skins/Aeon/720p/font.xml - neoanderson2002 - 2008-08-07 Hey Frater, I found this to be the case on my good old tube TV. I use it on Win XP. You can edit the font size: 1. Go to: XBMC/Skins/Aeon/720p/font.xml (Open using Notepad) 2. Change the font size font "profiles" used. I basically increased everything by 10 for anything size 10-30. 3. Save file and run XBMC to see the changes. Repeat 1-2 if everything is too big! Not sure how to edit this in XBox or Linux but it would be that xml file as well that requires editing. Cheers, -Neo - chrisdaniels - 2008-08-08 Exactly the same on xbox as it uses the same files.. - frater - 2008-08-08 Thanks for putting me in the right direction. First, I tried increasing the fontsize by 5 for fonts smaller than 30 but this turned out to be too much. Now I have all fonts smaller than 25 increased by 2 and this turned out to be sufficient. Any chance this becoming the default values....? I advised a friend of mine to buy a component-cable. He has a full-HD television. I will comment in here when I see that picture... - Cranial - 2008-08-08 frater Wrote:Thanks for putting me in the right direction. I'm running mine on an xbox via component to a Samsung 40" 1080p LCD. Resolution for XBMC (including video resolution and pictures resolution) is hard set to 720p. All fonts show up fine for me in standard settings. So a default change isn't necessary for a large proportion of us. - frater - 2008-08-08 I installed Aeon and a HD-cable on my friend's XBOX who has a Full-HD LCD-television and I can confirm that the text is looking good on that one. 1280 is a bit higher than the 1024 pixels I have available in horizontal. I do hope some fonts can increase 1 or 2 pixels so I don't have to change font.xml every time.... I'm sure it's an improvement for others too.. Well, at least I know for sure that it's my TV..... |
