my tv has no ability to scale... xbmc does scaling and you have the ability to change the overscanning via the settings.
look in the online manual for more info.

affini, you must be wrong unless they added this feature very recently. xbmc has no ability to rescale the gui. this is because theres no way to rescale everything, fonts, pictures, locations etc. the only thing you can do is move the gui around (not scale it). i have a pal 4:3 and there is no way to make this skin fit. there isnt even a pal 4:3 directory in this skin, its widescreen only.
i love this skin and would be extremely happy if a 4:3 version was made.
keep up the great work leonardo :thumbsup:

my tv is an old pos rear projection that does not do hdtv.
so i know it does no rescaling. but all my skins (including hdeetv) fit just fine if i change the overscan via the xbmc gui. i always use pal and my tv is ntsc.
maybe i just have a magic xbox :idea:
not...

it's cool that it works for you affini... just wondered if leonardo has plans to release a pal 4:3 version of this skin that works for everyone else.
anyway... excellent work leonardo.... hope you keep at it :-)

question and suggestion?
is it possible for when viewing large icons in myvideo's for just 3 large dvd type pictures? (ie the ram view style)
and secondly once i select the movie i would love to be in the imdb (info view) with a play button..... (is this imdb info cached on the hdd somewhere - if it is can someone tell me how to add a play button from this screen - i will use stacking and would always just want to lauch the first file.)
the way i organize my movie collection is:
movie folder>folder.jpg & associated movie.avi
tia
(i also noticed a small bug in the system setting screen - where you adjust the cache.... the arrors are opposite)
cheers

peterpl,
that looks nice.
i prefer the original background(s) with the "faded" look and without the green at the top but would like to add your 'new' buttons... do you have your buttons available?
