16 x 9 display problem

Postby johnsidle » 21 Nov 2008 02:13

I am running VLC 0.9.6 on Windows XP.

In viewing .mpg files recorded in Mythtv (on Linux machine) I get a picture starting on the left edge and only going to the right edge of a 4 x 3 display. To the right of that, I have colored bars; very pretty, but annoying. Same display on the Linux box, too, so it seems to be OS independent.

Any ideas?
