  • 1.  Large HMC display after upgrade

    Upgraded an HMC to 6.1.2 without any problems then applied the update to 6.1.3 but on reboot the display resolution has gone from normal to very large.

    Window seems to be much larger than usual display size and have to move the mouse to move to other parts of the screen.

    Apart from this everything works as it normally would.

    Anyone had this issue, or can advise how to resolve this issue?

    Thanks.

    You'll need root access to remove the zero byte file /opt/hsc/data/hmcConfigured, then boot with a supported display combination so the config files are updated to the correct resolution, then after a reboot in the unsupported combination the settings should remain.
