Is this in list, thumbnail, or either style list? Does the Theater View size option make much difference?
I only use the "list" style, so I don't know if the thumnail style has issues as well. I can't remember whether or not I tested this, but I'll test it the next time I get a chance
I did try changing the Theater View "size," and both the blocky text and the twitching remain.
I'm confused because the border and text are all one texture so I'd expect both to jiggle or neither -- not just one.
I'm not in front of that system right now, but I just had somebody else check it for me, and they said that the vertical edge of the box does not appear to twitch along with the word/s. They said that to some extent it was "hard to tell," but as far as they could tell only the text was twitching. I'll check this myself the next time I'm in front of that system, but their response appears to mimic what my memory is telling me, which is that just the text was twitching.
So does it smoothly move to a spot, and then overshoot a little, and then come back a second later? How many jiggles, when, and of what magnitude? (one pixel each way, lots, etc.)
The text twitching is not "up/down" -- it's "left/right," so it's not an "overshoot and return" issue. Basically, the scroll animation takes place, then it stops, THEN the twitching takes place. There sometimes actually seems to be a slight pause before the twitching starts. The number of twitches seems to vary, as does the specific lines that twitch -- only some of them do it, while the rest appear stable. They do NOT twitch in unisen -- i.e. each twitching line twitches to "it's own beat" so to speak, and the twitching has a random, "frenetic" feel to it. This happens for a second or two, completing a "bunch" of jiggles before stopping. I'd say that it's a "few" pixels each way -- basically enough to see it quite clearly.
A couple other things to add: The "blocky text" issue seems to depend on the length of the line of text. The longer the line of text is, the worse it gets the further you look to the right. On the system that does this, however, the "tops" of the letters seem slightly cut off. This issue goes away if I change the resolution -- it's only an issue at 1024 x 768.
I confirmed that neither issue is effected by the "smooth edges of screen fonts" setting.
Thanks again,
