This thread went in a few different directions from here. But I still have the same question as Scott. Is there a way to just reposition the widgets and the OSD so they don't use the top and bottom X pixels of the screen, so when we zoom with our TV and clip the top and bottom in order to use the full width of our new TV's we can still read the OSD and the menu system? Can this be implemented as a theme? (I didn't see widget locations in the xml files). Would I just have to modify the code? Just grabbed and built the source on my host... will look for where the widget locations are set... -- Darren Hart ------------------------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.
