Is there a widescreen version of the MediaPLi (8bit) skin?

On my 26" 16:9 TV the skin is very small, not filling the entire screen and the text hard to read from a distance.

Hmm,

You did set everything correctly is the AV setup?
Such as tuxtext setting are also having an impact on the skin you use.

Hi

I calibrated the ODS to fill the entire screen and are using 16:9 format (same as the Television)

I tried other formats such as Pal, PAL+60, Multiformat, same problem.

Yes, this is because of the widescreen channel, it detects the WSS (WideScreen Signal) and stretches the entire input signal (SCART).
Also, fonts are very wide in this mode, especially in EPG-mode..
This is really nasty, as more and more channels are becoming Widescreen nowadays...Posted Image

It looks ugly, even the round rotator is not round Posted Image
