A simple request to J River and all those talented individuals making skins - can you have a look at how they work with slightly larger fonts?

I run MC10 on a plasma TV which sits a bit far away from the sofa. I use the Windows DPI setting at 120%, and I change the Windows fonts to make them larger. I also change the MC fonts to 10 or 11 point.

In general, this works really well, except that in some skins the progress bar tends to be clipped, and the text in the Playing Now area (the central display above the progress bar) also is clipped.

The Z skin works fine, but Blue Steel and Opus MC show some clipping.

I hope this advances MC's path to world domination of large screen TVs everywhere!

I use a 42" Plasy too and had the same issue with font sizes but my solution is different.  I use Powerstrip to force the resolution to the native res for the TV which is 848*480.  All the skins look fine.

I recommend you try this rather than change the Windows DPI settings and fonts.

I thought about that, but native on my plasma is 1280 x 768...
