    Media Browser and Extended Display


    I use my plasma TV as my extended display to be able to watch movies on it

    Why when I open my Windows Media Center and try to use Media Broswer on the extended display it does not show completely

    What I mean is when I maximize it in the Plasma TV the corners are like if it was too big for the screen, if I try to fix the resolution to make it smaller so the whole window can fit, media browser then does not open.

    Why is this?

    Thanks

    if your using a Nvidia video card you should resize your HDTV from the Nvidia Control panel like this.




    I had to do the same thing for my TV. SO just set your res, as high as the TV can go and then resize it from there.
