change of display settings
#1
Hi.
I'm running into the following situation:
When on xbmc, press "/" to change window size, the window shrink from full to a smaller.
When I tried to get it back to full ...it grows a bit bigger but not to full screen.
In this case the definition at system /display changed from those I've set....

System us set to launch xbnc on Linux startup and display full screen....
any idea?
Thanks

did you calibrate your screen?

Never use calibration if you can avoid it!!! Better to turn overscan off!!!

Hi,
strange I replied but when got to back....its not here...

So... the issue, as far as I understood the over scan, it's not the Tv nor Pc settings.
As I mentioned above I'm running lubunu, than xbmc. The Linux is working perfect on the screen from start to finish.
When I press the / than only xbnc change to a window within the full screen Linux bellow...
What I'm looking for is to set/define/configure the 2nd / to restore full screen.
Thanks

if "\" doesn't bring full screen back, then something is wrong. Debug Log

What do you mean by why?
Is there anything wrong with that version?

It is a pre release of 12. Current is 13.2. I suggest you update!

and its most probably a broken debian patched version... So yes, there is a lot wrong with it.

12.0RC3 is the release in the official Ubuntu repositories for Saucy. See http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?suite=...words=xbmc

Sadly, Ubuntu tend to lag a long way behind official team-xbmc releases. Official Trusty version from Ubuntu is only 12.3

@OP, add the team-xbmc ppa and update from there. See HOW-TO:Install_XBMC_for_Linux (wiki)

Simple: Ubuntu versions don't change within a release.

Why anyone would use saucy for a media PC is beyond me. If you want an appliance, at least choose an LTS release.
