Title: Pcsxbox Display Problem
Post by: Shots on March 10, 2006, 07:21:00 PM

Could someone tell me what buttons to press to change the display settings in pcsxbox. I just installed it and I can't read the screen at all. It looks like:

All I can tell is that the first screen has 6 menu choices but I can't read anything. I use a projector at home (no TV set) so I use component cables from my XBox to my projector. The projector switches to 480p when I launch pcsxbox (down from 1080i when I run XBMC). It should display 480p no problem, yet I can't read the menu at all. So if someone would be nice enough to tell me what I need to press to change the resolution, I would appreciate it!

No Clue, as I've never has any problems with any of xport projects. btw, that pic looks like a 3d puzzle.

It's a 2D Wall Puzzle. I'm supposed to figure out which buttons to press to make it show up correctly but I'm lazy. I want to cheat and have someone tell me which buttons to press.  (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

I have that issue.(there are many others as well)

The issue is with the dashboard. I cannot launch any xport emu's with 480p enabled in either xbmc or unleashx. If i do, I get the same screen as youurs. I installed evox (old reliable - if you will), and launch my emus from there.

Another option would be to diable the 480p in your dash before launching. But then you cannot enable 480p within the emu, as it is not enabled within the dash.

My solution was to Launch once with evox, set all to 480p, then launch with unleashx and xbmc with the 480p diabaled. The emu will still start with the 480p enabled.

I am uncertain if this is just a xbox version 1.6 issue (this is what I have)

Note: evox is a dashboard (an old oudated one). Can be located in the usual places. Simply install it as an app withing your current dash.

Note: For more info, use the search. The goolge search will still pull up information on this if you use the right key terms - eg 480p xport, etc

I have not heard of any issues with the 1080i enabled, but that causes slowdown on my dashes.

Thanks Scoobysnaxx! That worked perfectly (Evox). I had it installed already as I like to keep UnleashX, Xbmc and Evox in case I have a problem with one or the other. Looks like I had a problem.  (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

I just launched Evox from within Xbmc and then launched pcsxbox from within Evox. Thanks again!
