Are you using MythTV? If so, have you by any chance set the option to use a custom video resolution based on the recording resolution? If this is the case, the black bar you're seeing could be caused by the playback video resolution for 720x480 producing a slightly smaller image than the playback resolution(s) you use for other recording resolutions. -- Rod Smith, [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.rodsbooks.com Author of books on Linux, FreeBSD, and networking _______________________________________________ pvrusb2 mailing list [email protected] http://www.isely.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pvrusb2
