Re: [vdr] Disabling Xineliboutput video mode switching

...

Hi all,

I have a problem with Xineliboutput's OSD. In low resolution videos it look doesn't fit the screen. It seems as if Xineliboutput actually switches the resolution of the (VGA) monitor.

So how do I force Xineliboutput to first scale the _video_ to screen (not vice versa) and then put OSD (unscaled) on top of that?

Same problem here. I'd prefer it to scale the osd the same way vdr-xine does. (i'm using xine as a remote frontend)

There is a setting in /etc/vdr/setup.conf (Xineliboutput.VideomodeSwitching = 1), but in Gentoo that file gets overwritten every time VDR starts. I have not yet found a way to modify that file except with the vdr-setup plugin, but it does not allow me to change all the variables that are in the file.
