[mythtv-users] HowTo prevent scrolling on LCD?

HI!

I am currently using a 16x2 LCD. In this case, MythTV switches slowly
(pages) through parts of long text that does not fit on the display.

Now I have a new 20x4 LCD. With this one, MythTV scrolls long text from
right to left. Because this LCD is pretty slow, the scrolling looks bad,
it flickers.

I have tried finding a setting for LCDd of lcdproc, but "TitleSpeed"
does not affect the scrolling speed and does not switch off scrolling,
as it should. So I guess, it's a MythTV thing.

Is there any way to switch from scrolling to paging (like on the smaller
LCD) or at least to slow down the scrolling?

Using MythTV 0.23.1 on Gentoo.

Thanks!

Thomas
