[mythtv-users] program guide font size

[Peter Darley]

Asher,

     I have a question about this:
     My video card will only go up to 1280x1024 on tv out, but I'm  
displaying it on a 16:9 aspect tv.  Right now I have DispaySize=400  
225, which tells xine etc that the screen isn't really 4:3.

     Would it work to set it to 462 260, being that 260 = 1024*2.54,  
and 462 = 260*(16/9)?  I got this because the 1024 px height is the  
'real' hight of the display, and then the width is relative to that.

     Of course, it occures to me that I could just try it and see  
what happens, but I've written this now, so if someone has some  
feedback before I have a chance to try this I would appreciate it.
