Sony's Media Panel - you know the one

---

Ok - Using several different ROMs I have found the one that suits me the best - I have one nagging problem - videos that previously were played in landscape full screen are now chopped in half and being played via portrait??

So my question is what / where is the media player that is being used on that panel - I want to see if I have options to change the view setting - or ifs it just windows media player then i give up.

maybe not a custom rom issue but more a media player issue ! working with an original/std factory rom & it is so crappy that i know use core player which is really better ! we are multiple people having concerns with the sony media player (xmb panel)

the panel files are under /program files/panels

im using itjes rom as well, reinstalling mxp fixed most of the problems.

have you tried playing your vids in windows media to see what happens?

i forgot to say, opening mxp as a standalone using pubbas doesnt work, so there might be something else going on, when i get some time ill take a look.

Well they play landscape in media player but it looks like crap- plus the touch controls on the sony media xper thing are much better - i have looked in the panels and the other location but i dont see anything that i can look at or set - - so with jacks rom the panel plays perfectly (once you install it) but the one that i want to use and like is the touch one - but the panel just has that one flaw - i have tried to uninstall and reinstall the panel same thing.

I've encountered the same problem and uninstalled the media panel alltogether. I think it relates to Itje's "experience" ROM, as I didn't encounter the issue before installing it. With another ROM the problem might well be solved; just tinker around with it a bit.

Thanks for the replies -
Just installed coreplayer - works well enough - still miss my touch screen menu overlay on the video - but Its worth it on this ROM that works better than stock.
