[mythtv-users] Separate resolutions for gui and video

[wouter lists]

Hi all,

Is there somewhere documentation on how to configure and use this
feature? I ask because I see some weird stuff happening.

I have configured 2 modelines in xorg: 1024x576 and 720x576.

My pc and tv are connected via a vga2scart cable, so there is a litlle overscan.

I have a PVR-500 (PAL-B) and capture in 720x576. So I was thinking: if
I switch to 720x576 for viewing a recording, I have a 1-to-1 mapping
of the screen resolution and I don't have to waist CPU on rescaling.

In the separate resolution I set the gui to 1024x576, video to
720x576, refresh rate to default (even tried 50Hz) and the last to
4:3.

The resolution is switched when starting a video, but the image is not
centered. It's moved to the right. Even with the overscan there is
some space between the video window and the side of my tv. How can I
move it more to the left?

I'm running debian unstable x86_64 with the mythtv builds from
deban-multimedia (20.2).

Any help?
