<div class="moz-cite-prefix">Hi,</div>
<div class="moz-cite-prefix"> Any hope of finding a fix or
work-around for my skewed fonts in mythfrontend ?</div>
<div class="moz-cite-prefix">Currently, I have to first downsize the
resolution of my display using xrandr, start mythfrontend, re-use
xrandr to set display size correctly, move the mythfrontend window
to its proper location and set down to use it...</div>
<div class="moz-cite-prefix"><br>
</div>
<div class="moz-cite-prefix"> But it does work as work-around,
Beats the problems I have with my other frontend/backend where the
remote no longer works on recent kernels, where I have to spy on
the output of the backend to check for errors on my TBS6950 which
MythTV can't configure properly so that when the backend loses it
I have to : stop the backend, run dvblast to reset the card to
use the CAM card and restart mythbackend... Of course that is when
the backend doesn't go defunct on one of the Haupage decoder
preventing systemd from cleanly shutting it down and preventing
Linux from rebooting without a manual hardware reset. Sight a few
years ago, before the TBS card, it all worked fine. I can't
believe that a defunct process prevents a reboot! (Defunct in a
kernel driver of course, not the standard zombie case).<br>

119/34 = 3.5 - which is almost your aspect ratio (stupid EDID data
can't do accurate here).
Try the following and see what Qt thinks it is using:-
QT_LOGGING_RULES=qt.qpa.*=true mythfrontend
You should see something like this in the first few lines (from my
current machine):-
qt.qpa.screen: adding QXcbScreen(0xbea100, name="HDMI-A-0",
geometry=1680x1050+0+0, availableGeometry=1680x1023+0+27,
devicePixelRatio=1.0, logicalDpi=QPair(96.0,96.0),
physicalSize=434.0x270.0mm, screenNumber=0, virtualSize=1680x1050
(1680.0x1050.0mm), orientation=Qt::LandscapeOrientation, depth=24,
refreshRate=59.9, root=6af, windowManagerName="GNOME Shell") (Primary:
true )
