Graphics cut off bottom of screen
When running 4.3 my graphics/lyrics are cut off at the bottom of the screen, when running version 3.4 this does not happen. Display setting are set the same for both.
When running 3.4, and the Karaoke lyrics show up on the first display, I usually just double click in the lyrics area and the lyrics then fill the second display. This also works when running the 4.3 version but again the graphics are cut off at the bottom of the display(marquee is running). Using 19 inch flat panel monitor and I already have the display setting set as high as it will go. Last edited by xxyzz; September 9th, 2008 at 10:26 PM. |

the resolution settings on your computer screen need to be set the same as on the second monitor.

Is your flat screen monitor high definition? If so try changing the Aspect Ratio. The problem with setting to HD ratio (16:9) is this tends to cut off the bottom and top of non-HD picture. Hoster isn't set-up to use HD.

OR I could have kept my settings the way they were and then manually resize the secondy display to fit in the window. I never had to do this with any previous versions but if you want to see the singer/song at the bottom of the screen you will need to do this. |

New TV at Old Venue
Quote:
The second venue was something a little different. I learned that they were switching to satellite and asked the manager to advise me when the technician would be doing the install, so I could match the computer resolutions, and hook up my cables for minimal setup before show. Well... I show up last Friday and the New Plasma TV (52") is installed and Satellite connection with unfamiliar remote is the only thing the Bartender was given. This is my normal 1 hour prior to show setup allowance. Turns out the manager was out sick, so the technician wasn't aware that I wanted to be there when the TV was installed. The TV fit an open nook like it was designed for it! Not more than two inches on either side, and the set was heavier than I expected. So there I am trying to study the remote, onscreen instructions ( No Instruction Manual, Naturally), wedge a hand blindly around the side and make the best connection without knowing the backpanel configuration. I finally got an RCA plug in a side setup that was barely accessable, and struggled to get the video screen to appear with this complicated remote control. I started late, I was mad, the customers were a little more than anxious, and the resulting show screen was not up to my normal standards. So after the show I went home and pulled up the Instruction Manuals or a simular model, for the TV and the Satellite Manufacturer for remote control instructions. I since have been back to the venue, found the TV remote ( Simpler to Understand by far!) and got a couple of helpers to move and steady the Television while I got a s-video wire connected to the rear. The show screen will look great this week! Dale is correct about High Definition and cutting off the top and bottom, or adjusting the resolution, to make the singers screen optimal. The TV remote allowed the screen to be moved vertically and horizontally without changing the computer settings. (Nice feature to simplify the resizing!) Manager was sympathetic, I wasn't! I'll be a happy camper again this week! So each venue may take a little tweaking if you do several gigs, and need to setup and teardown for different venues! Rick Rikki Tikki Karaoke |

Graphics cut off bottom of screen
Running it at two different resolutions IS the problem. The singers names get cut off the bottom of the screen.
