GTMEDIA V8 FINDER 2 blur, fuzzy menu and text on LCD

Post by SpyLand »

Hi, my finder is difficult to read the LCD menus and text, all have like fuzzy and blur contour and is nothing sharp.
Is this normal or is a problem with my unit?
Can this be easily fixed?
I didn't connect it to a TV trough the HDMI to see if this also happens, but going to test it as soon I can.

I think this is due to the low resolution of the screen.

I too find smaller text is hard to see, but the larger text is OK.
I think the smaller text does not have enough resolution to display.
I would hope GT Media can change the smaller text to one size bigger to fix this.

Thanks Owen for the information, like that is not a problem with my unit but a normal behavior.
Anyway I leave here an image of the LCD to really verify that we are talking about the same.

Is there anyone else face the same issue just same like me??
Hope someone can solve the problem shown as below.
Italy Serie A - live feed 4:2:2 signal from 7E.
using GT Combo 4:2:2.
After decryption can’t play as well due to lagging and unstable low fps.

Is it problem of the GT Combo or need to change bigger satellite dish to receive better strong enough signal?

Regard the finder 2 text size.
They updated the software, see this change log for that version.

20/04/2022
Change log:
1. All UI updated to solve the problem that the font cannot be seen clearly
2. Solve the problem of IP address display
3. Solve the problem of 22k switching under the spectrum menu
GTMedia_V8Finder2_V455_20220420.zip

Regard the Combo 4.2.2, yes some high bit rate ( 6-15 Mbps) feeds do jump.

I hope they find a way to fix it.
