Freevo 2.0 _will_ have a better gui for that. The 1.7 gui was designed without non-square pixel and stuff like that. The new gui will have percentages. > Ideally, however, the resolution-independent skins would be defined in > a true resolution-independent way, i.e. SVG or similar, rather than > bitmaps.

Changing the gui code for 1.7 could be a waste of time because it is very complex. I learned from misstakes and when Jason writes kaa.candy (our new gui subsystem) I will make sure Freevo uses it correctly: 1. 16:9 skins for square-pixel (HD-TFT) 2. 16:9 skin for current TV (720x576) 3. 4:3 support for non-sqare-pixel (again, 720x576 which is close to 4:3 but not 4:3) Dischi -- WARNING: I cannot be held responsible for the above, as apparently my cats have learned how to type.
