just upgraded from 11-26 to 11-29 to fix a choppy audio problem i was seeing. the audio is now working but there is a problem with the screen calibration - i can't move the arrows up or down the screen. they will move right/left ok but thats it. also in the ui calibration the screen just flickers.
if i go back to 11-26 everything is ok again.

things to check are:
keymap.xml (not likely the problem)
skin files (use the mediacenter skin from the correct version to test as it is the most up to date)
and the calibration.xml in the e:\tdata\0face008 directory. iirc calibration.xml was introduced in 11-26, though it may have been 11-29 which could be causing your problems.
in calibration, do you have the pixel ratio changeable? (the square that shows up after the calibration arrows?)
perhaps if you post your calibration.xml file - just the section for the resolution you have the gui in (under settings->general) i may be able to see some reasons as to why things won't go up and down.
i have no idea regarding the ui calibration problems - once again, it could possibly be due to skin files being missing.
cheers,

thanks for the feedback. i've checked the skins and even downloaded the 11/29 again and reinstalled. this time with the standard config files (no changes) etc but exactly the same result.
i can't get the pixel ration to change - its stall a rectangle but will not let me adjust it. i also rechecked 11/26 again is it works just fine.
the section from the calibration.xml is below.
thanks,

hmmm. calibration.xml is fine.
have you tried using the analog stick (left) to manipulate the arrows? what about the dpad? what about the arrows on the remote. do these controls work correctly in every other part of the gui (including for instance zoomed pictures?)
it seems to me that the break down is with processing the command you wish to perform.
a work around is that if it all works for 11/26, then calibrate everything how you like for that, and then upgrade to 11/29. it will use the same calibration as 11/26 (assuming 11/26 had the calibration.xml file already, which i think it did.) either that, or manually adjust the values inside the <overscan> tags to be as you want.
hope this helps.
