Hi Guys,

I remember that someone had some kind of patch for increasing the OSD-resoluion in VDR. I just can't find that post that mentioned about that...

Could anyone post a link to that site that had that patch.. I would like to try that out :-)

Regards,

René

The patches are here: http://www.netholic.com/viewtopic.php?t=1622 Unfortunately, if you do not speak Finnish, it might a bit hard to follow that thread....

What comes to VDR, you just need to change the defines for MAXOSDHEIGHT and -WIDTH in config.h (this is against 1.4.3-4):

In order to increase the resolution of the OSD you should use xineliboutput-plugin and patch it like this (patch will most likely be broken because it is inline):

After that you should change the resolution via VDR's setup menu. Note that menu plugins are not really compatible with the larger resolution, like for example the ttxtsubs plugin unless you make some changes in to them. Here is an example fix for the ttxtsubs plugin:
