xela19115 0 Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 Noob to MB here and need help. I see a black border all around the played content when I am playing back in MB3 Classic using whatever native player that comes with MB3. I am running MB3 Classic WMC plugin on the same PC as MB3 Server. I am seeing this problem on the HTPC and Extender (XBox 360) as well. I tried to use MB3 Theater and the same problem there. I do not see any borders when I am looking at the MB3 Classic content listings only the playback. This issue does not exist if I am playing the same movies in WMC under Movies. Thanks in advance for help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Latchmor 584 Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 Hi, have a read through this post and check the part about Media Center settings (about halfway down) first before you try any registry/xml file changes. http://mediabrowser.tv/community/index.php?/topic/2123-media-browser-classic-is-not-displayed-on-100-of-the-screen-how-to-troubleshoot-overscan-issues/?hl=underscan Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xela19115 0 Posted March 31, 2014 Author Share Posted March 31, 2014 That's the rub. I've read that thread and I don't have issues with blue borders in the "browser" or listings. Listing are displayed correctly, edge to edge. Only when I play the content that I see a black border. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebr 14944 Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 The border is probably encoded in the content itself. What is it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xela19115 0 Posted March 31, 2014 Author Share Posted March 31, 2014 Any video content (TS, M2TS, MKV, MP4, AVI, WMV, etc.). If I try to play through WMC default player (in WMC under Movies) I see no border. In MB3 Classic I see the border. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebr 14944 Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 Is the zoom setting in WMC set to something odd? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ebr 14944 Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 No. Whatever is the default. How do you know? I mean, if you don't know what it is set to... Hit the "info" button on your remote while one of these is playing and scroll over to Zoom. Which one is checked? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What player is MB3 using? Is it using its own or whatever the WMC is set to? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebr 14944 Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 WMC is it's own player and we are using that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdrianW 1053 Posted April 1, 2014 Share Posted April 1, 2014 Could it be that he set the wrong TV type during the WMC setup process? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
