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?
Thanks in advance,
Samuli

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.

Hi,
Rolf Ahrenberg already answered this question yesterday at Linuxtv.fi forum, a short while after you posted it.
Make sure VDR isn't running when you edit setup.conf with external tools--otherwise VDR will not read your changes and it will just overwrite them with its current in-memory settings when closed.

I'm already using this setting. For small video resolutions (like on itv1 - 28.2°E - 544x576) osd is bigger and doesn't fit on the screen.
