It works for me, thanks!

Btw: The smaller the numbers in Displaysize, the larger the font will
appear on the tv!

Greetings,
Ger.

| Hi,
|
| In the "settings" menu of mythfrontend, I can change the fontsize
| of the "large" "medium" and "small" fonts. This has no effect on
| the frontend fontsize.
|
| When I started the frontend on the computer where normally only the
|  backend runs, I do get a large fontsize. The normal frontend uses
| the mysql database of the backend server. Perhaps that this has
| anything to do with it??
|
| Any ideas would be appreciated.
|
| Thanks, Ger.
