Hi,
Sorry for the newbie post...not sure what to even search for yet.
I have a PC hooked up to both a LCD computer monitor (DVI) and my HDTV (DVI to HDMI cable). I use the LCD as my primary control monitor and display xbmc on the HDTV.
I have a problem with the screen resolution using the default XBMC skin. If I set the HDTV to 720 (1152x720?), I can see movies in full screen. The problem is that I can't see other controls such as the exit button on the bottom of the main screen or the button on the top right of the movie screen to bring up the on-screen control.
If I change the resolution to 1080, I can see everything but the movies only show in a box in the middle of the screen.
I have noticed that in in either resolution, there are areas of the display that are off of the screen...not quite sure how to fix that yet.
Are the skins designed for a specific resolution? Can I display a skin in one resolution and a movie in another?
Any pointers on where I can get more info to solve my problem would be appreciated.
Thanks!
