XBMC weird scaling issue
#1
I just compiled xbmc fro SVN and I get a weird "scaling issue". The main image only takes up 1/4 of the xbmc windows. Any ideas?

You must have missed the debug log part eh?

I see this issue as well when I try to install the SVN PPA version of XBMC. When I use the stable PPA version I then see the Zoomed in effect mentioned in this tread, http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=36053. I was about to try an complie XBMC from the SVN myself but I guess I may hold off on that since it seems like I may just run into the same scaling issue I see in the SVN PPA release.

The Log below is from the Stable PPA version. Later tonight I can try to load the SVN PPA version back up and update my post with the log for that as well.

Just checked out the SVN again (r15082) and now after a 'make clean' and recompile when I run it I get 100% CPU usage and nothing comes up. I am on a Intel video chipset.

Do you pass any options to configure?

If not I can only think of one very bad (from a dev point of view) reason for the behavior.

the only option I passed was --prefix , but I have compiled it with and without this option

only "--prefix=/usr", but I have compiled it without that option too

I should clarify what the symptoms are. A xbmc window does pop up but stays black and throttles my CPU to 100%. It seems to grab my keyboard and mouse because nothing responds. The only way to break free is to ssh from another computer and kill the process.

This is not a regression, I rolled back to 14500 and I had the same issue.
