Argh.
Set permissions to 777 on "themecache" directory and "G.A.N.T..1027.768" directory as user mythtv. Still prescaling.
Did a "touch" on all files and folders in themecache. Still prescaling.
Did I do something wrong?

Hi, Is MythTV always supposed to pre-scale the images prior to running? I had read that it was only supposed to happen on a resolution change. I have made sure /home/mythtv/.mythtv is world writable... Cheers, Graham |

there are a couple of very in depth discussions on this very issue, and the answer is no it is not suppose to prescale every time, and I believe the resolution was some sort of permissions issue. |

Mine pre-scales everytime, too. It's not supposed to do this? Did a quick search for "prescale" but didn't come up with much. URL? |

Here is one version of the problem we've seen in the past: http://mysettopbox.tv/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=5478&highlight=prescaling I swear that there is a permissions related one, but I can't find the thread... |

the topic you linked does have which dir the cache is stored in that one could check permissions on. |

I know I have done the same and it still pre-scales each time. I don't bother posting until I have searched and tried previous suggestions  I had already come across the thread mentioned by tjc...

Just to clarify, the problem is when it does the "slow" re-scaling every time you launch mythfrontend (as if you'd changed resolutions). I see the "rescaling" progress bars every time I start mythfrontend, but it goes by very quickly. It does still appear, though. |

Hmm, I thought that it was only supposed to do the 'Pre-scaling...' (at all) if the resolution had changed... Mine doesn't always take a long time but it does always show... Can someone who knows clarify the situation please? |

well I don't reboot my box enough to really know if it does prescale every time, but I can tell you if it does it goes fast enough that a blink will make you miss it. |
