[RESOLVED] Pinball X Table Video not filling full width of screen

[cjrailson]

Hi Guys,

I have started setting up Pinball X and so far so good, however none of the table videos (Including the sample ones) fill the full width of my screen. Resolution is 1080 x 1920 vertical. The wheel images etc do fill the full width.

Any ideas what can do to fix this?

Have you checked your display settings to make sure this isn't a result from a aspect ratio setting?

For larger displays you want "just scan" or something similar so you do not get any over/under scan.

Thanks tthurman,

I have checked my display setings and they seem ok. Its only the table videos which are the wrong size wheel images etc go the full width of the screen. I have attached a photo to better show the issue.

Its because apparently while pinballx will run vertical once its launched, it expects your windows desktop to be horizontal.

Se your desktop to normal, then set PBX to 270 degrees rotation on the main display, then launch.

Oh I see, Ill try that. Thanks Lurker!

Thats a real shame it doesent support when Windows in portrait mode as it makes navigating the system when not in Pinball X a whole lot harder unless I keep messing with the display settings. Hopefully its still on the todo list for the next version of Pinball X as im guessing a lot of people using it have pinball cabs and so will have Windows set to portrait mode.

Yep thats was the problem! I hope support for windows portrait mode comes soon. seems like a weird bug.
