[mythtv-users] default off-centre playback of recordings [solved]

[Alastair Kerr]

##Original message##

I have just noticed default playback of all my recordings are now off
centre, leaving a black band on the left of the picture.  This is easily
fixed by menu>video>manual zoom and moving the picture over using the arrow
keys. I assume this has started after a recent upgrade. (sometime in the
last 2 weeks) but I cannot rule out someone changing a setting somewhere.

This only affects recordings. GUI is fine, live tv is fine, ripped videos
are fine.
I do notice though that live tv starts off-centre but quickly corrects to
normal viewing.  However if I record the live tvstream, then go to 
watch it via 'recordings' then the off-centre problem is visible.   i.e. 
the effect is for all recordings, from live tv, scheduled, or from any time
in the past.

I am running mythbuntu (12.04) using daily updates.
GPU: nvidia 7300.

Any ideas where to start looking for a solution?

Replying to my own post In case others have the same problem: 

I disabled  'Separate video mode for Gui and TV playback' under
setup>appearance and now everything works as before .
This was a default option I always have had enabled. No idea why it became a
problem now
