[Solved] No thumbnails and zoomed video on Sony KDL-40EX521

[ciarals]

Ok, I'll do it in 1 hour... Can you please tell me what does that command do? Can I put multiple versions of the code for each video resolution I have? For example:

Code: Select all

OverrideVideoFilter=scale=720:404,setdar=4/3,pad=720:404
OverrideVideoFilter=scale=1280:720,setdar=4/3,pad=1280:720

Do I have to repeat the video resolution 2 times, for scale and pad?

Thanks and sorry for so many questions...

Nope you can only set one at a time.
ANd only one line with both scale and pad

Understood... Unfortunately, no results
What resolution do I have to put in the code? The resolution of the video or the resolution of the TV, like 1920x1080?
I really hope it's not a setting on my Bravia, but I've really analyzed all the settings without any results...

Hi,

For thumbs add

Code: Select all

ThumbnailAsResource=true

to the render config file. I think your render config should be "BraviaEX.conf". If it works come back and I'll it to the repo.

this solution also solves my problem viewtopic.php?f=9&t=1315,
thank you

It's the resoultion of the TV. If it doesn't work fiddeling with the params then I'm out of ideas for that one.

This one will go into all Bravia conf files since it seems Bravia needs that.

And as I was fearing, it wasn't a UMS problem, but a Sony hidden configuration -.-

If also other users as me are having the zoomed/enlarged picture "problem", please be sure to select [+1] in the "Display Area" settings located inside "Screen" settings: http://docs.esupport.sony.com/imanual/N ... pc_uc.html

So, to sum up, zoomed video problem is solved and thumbanils problem is solved by using this code in the conf file of the Bravia:

Code: Select all

ThumbnailAsResource=true

SharkHunter, one last question for you: thumbnails seem to be in lower resolution that when are displayed on PS3. Is there a reason for this?
