TV safe area #155

Closed clbr closed 3 years ago

Parts of the text are outside the TV safe area, affecting docked mode. For example on my TV, on the internet screen, I can't see which button it says to use for URLs.

Then disable overscan. For Switch is not needed

My TV does not have that option. Many don't.

My almost 20 year old plasma has option to disable overscan. Stop buying shit TVs :P

Perhaps so, mine is a 10 year old LCD. Still, the correct practice is to account for the safe TV area when targeting TVs.

Slightly offtopic: I ended up not using Awoo for other reasons. Installing big titles crashed instantly with 2168-0001, not using applet mode wasn't possible due to chicken-egg issues (need a title installed to use game mode, but can't install titles), and installing small titles (<500mb) claimed success, but they weren't visible anywhere. Nothing on home screen or settings->software, and the SD card's free space hadn't changed.

All this was via http, on fw 10.2, atmosphere 1.1.1.

I did doubt the SD card at that point, but it's new, freshly formatted fat32 and genuine. So I tried other installers, and dbi installed everything successfully, in applet mode, via http, and even supported the html index page. It's closed source however.

This is not fixed that I can see? No commits change the UI.
