| Post subject: | Fonts too small |
Hi guys I installed KnoppMyth while testing my new HTPC with a VGA monitor. Then I connected it to my 1280x720 projector by a DVI-HDMI cable. The image is fine but EVERY fonts displayed are so small that only main menu options are barely recognizable... How can I increase font size? You can guide me by telling the sequence keys to go through the menus, since I cannot read them, or by command line from the shell. I tried to edit XF86Config-4 file by adding (using NANO) "UseEdidDpi" "False" and "DisplaySize 1280 1024" as read in another post with the opposite problem, but with no effects... HELP!! |

I think you misunderstood what those numbers mean. Start here, http://www.knoppmythwiki.org/index.php?page=FontSizeHowTo but also see this posting for how the calculations work. http://mysettopbox.tv/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=6118&highlight=displaysize |

Try Code: DisplaySize 271 203
In your XF86Config-4 file under the Monitor Section.... That should force 75 dpi fonts (I find the 100 dpi to be too large) for an 800x600 aspect ratio. I know you are at 1280x720 but these numbers scale the font. Let me know how it works. |

On my Samsung DLP RPTV over DVI, 1280x720, the DisplaySize setting had no effect. This did (in the Monitor section): Code: Option "UseEdidDpi" "FALSE" Option "DPI" "100 x 100" I Also added the ATSC mode to my 24bit modes list: Code: SubSection "Display"
Depth 24 Modes "ATSC-720-59.94p" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480" EndSubSection I tried ATSC-720-60p first, but it had some jitter on the SD material, looked like a sticky frame or a deinterlacing artifact. doesn't happen for me at 59.94p. |
