Hi,

in a previous post, someone here gave me the tip to use df_xine with DirectFB. That works pretty good, beside the osd behaviour.

There is no problem when looking normal television on my 4:3 german tv. But when I switch to a channel with a movie in 16:9, the OSD gets squeezed together and it is a pain to read it. I saw the options in the plugin setup, but I don’t believe that this behaviour is normal!?

When I start df_xine with –a 4:3, the 16:9 movie ist shown in 4:3 fullscreen mode on my tv (picture gets streched) that also does not look good.

I saw posts on this mailing lists from people who start df_xine with –a 5:4, don’t 16:9 movies look streched that way? The OSD always uses fullscreen this way, that’s the positive thing.

Thanks for any advice.

 

regards
