XBMC menu and video

It seems that it cuts part of the movie from top and bottom but with this trick the bar extend to the whole wide nice trick

It worked! Had to change from 91% to 93% using 720p resolution. Thank you very much!!

Glad to help.

Hi,


I own a Tronsmart S89H and I am using XBMC 14 nightly and I notice that every time that I start a movie it shows a black rectangle with the size of the top menu but if I change the video format from normal to zoom and then back to normal the black bar goes away.


It happens with any Skin!


Did anyone notice this before?


When I open the video is already like this:

The menu:

After I change the video format:

I found the problem on the Android boxes.

The problem is from the video setup between Android and XBMC.

To fix: In android "settings/display/display position" my setting was at 86%.
I increased to 88%. (Yours may only need increasing 1%)

Now in XBMC "settings/system/video/calibration" Calibrate as you normally would.

All videos fullscreen and letterbox should be normal without top and bottom black bars overlaying video.

I hope this helps....it was driving me crazy

Is it compatible with the S89-H?

last night installed leola's rom that comes with stane's xbmc build and the black bars are gone, tested with different videos.

I posted on XBMC Forum, hopefully I can get some attention of someone that can fix it.
