Yes, the HTPC is connected via composite to a PAL-I TV-set and RF modulator (using RCA Y splitters). > The best solution that I have when connecting to a TV with composite or > s-video is to use 720x576.

The problem is that Freevo is using CONF.geometry, while PyOSD is using the X display's size. As a result, pyosd.POS_BOT is not always where one would expect to find it. A possible solution would be to use: self.osd.set_pos(pyosd.POS_TOP) self.osd.set_offset(config.CONF.height - 100) Best regards.
