<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I'm a new MythTV user, so please excuse any stupid
mistakes ...</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I have a backend/frontend MythTV installation. The backend has a
Hauppauge PVR-500, and recordings (so far) work great.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>The front end is an XBox run Xebian. Both are running Myth
0.19. I have verified that the Xbox X11 stuff is running at 100x100
DPI.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I have what appears to be font issues on the MythTV frontend.
Problems that I see:</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>1) Some of the "Next" / "Cancel" buttons either appear off the bottom of
the screen, or I can barely see the edge of the button,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>2) When viewing recorded shows, I see truncation in descriptions. For
example, if I go to the Scheduled Recordings page, I see (for program
details):</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>"S...
All Channel Record +0 Will
Record"</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Why the "S..." (rather than the full date)?</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>If I set the font size to "small" via TV Settings->Appearence, then it's
WAY too small to be seen on a TV. If I go in and set font sizes
manually for QT, these do not appear to have any effect.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>3) I just went to view "Dateline" for test purposes. I see:</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV> Dateline NBC</DIV>
<DIV> To Catch a Predator</DIV>
<DIV> Airdate: Wed May 10, 9:00 PM - 10:00 PM</DIV>
<DIV> Channel: KING</DIV>
<DIV> Descr...</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>(no description appears, even though there's plenty of room for one)</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>-----</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>In case it's relevant, the backend was built from source, and is running
Fedora Core5. The frontend (the XBox) was installed via apt-get, following
the "MythTV on Xebian HOW TO".</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Thanks for any suggestions or advice,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
