I recently purchased a TV tuner (Hauppage) to watch television through JRiver. Everything is working good, except when I set zoom to 100% it only about half the size of my 22" monitor. It I "Fit To Screen" it enlarges to 150% to go full screen. The picture quality is still pretty good but it's clearly enlarging the picture. I've tried everything to change settings and can't figure it out. Of course, the tv broadcast is in HD (720p) so why wouldn't 100% be filling my full 16 x 9" screen?

Any input is appreciated.

Thanks,
Spencer

It depends on your monitor resolution.  Most modern monitors are capable of resolution that is close to 1080 lines.  If that is the case, a 720p broadcast would appear to be covering only half of the screen at 100%.  By default, MC always use "Fit to window".  There is no need to set it to 100%.

Thanks. I guess that makes sense since my multiple monitors are both 1920 x 1080 resolution. Fit to window makes total sense if I'm watching a 720p broadcast.

Appreciate the quick response!
