[mythtv-users] EPG Font Size

Hello:

I set up a Myth system for my parents.  Unfortunately, they can't read 
the EPG and have been complaining reguarly.  I suspect a good chunk of 
the problem is the TV, and they know that and are "working" on that, but 
it will be a bit before they can afford a new one.  I've done everything 
I could to get the highest quality signal to it, but am still no better 
off then when I started.

After some careful analysis and comparison to the DirecTV EPG built into 
the reciever (which is readable), I think increasing the font size 2-4 
points would do the trick.  Unfortunately, I haven't been able to figure 
out how.  So far, I've tweaked all the font size settings in the MythTV 
settings-> appearance, and they have had no effect whatsoever (forget on 
the EPG; nothing at all changes).

Is there some way I can tweak the smallest font setting (used in the EPG 
and program descriptions) to something a bit larger?

Much appreciated!
