[mythtv-users] bigger fonts please

[Egeekial]

No, this is the same problem. My "Manage Recordings" also just says 
"Manage". I was saying that we need bigger fonts, so that we don't have 
to use 100dpi fonts. Maybe I've configured something incorrectly with 
MythCenter, but I don't think it's designed for the 100dpi fonts...
