Full Screen or Window Mode – Whatever
You Like
If you are using a Mac Mini with MediaCentral as the core of
your home theater, you will love the clear and crisp full screen
mode. If you are looking to use MediaCentral with your
MacBook on the road, “MediaCentral-in-a-window” is probably
the right mode for you. You can toggle between full screen
and “MediaCentral-in-a-window” at any time.
To toggle between the full screen and “MediaCentral-in-a-
window” modes:
‣ Use the MediaCentral “Window” menu or the following
keystrokes:
✦
Small Size (⌘ 1)
✦
Medium Size (⌘ 2)
✦
Large Size (⌘ 3)
✦
Full Screen (⌘ 0)
The menu bar can be displayed even in full screen mode.
To display the menu bar in full screen mode:
‣ Move the mouse cursor to the top of the screen
MediaCentral on Multiple Displays
MediaCentral is perfectly suited for systems with multiple
displays. You can even use the full screen mode on any of the
attached displays.
MediaCentral 2 does not require a dialog box for switching
displays anymore. Changing the display works now the same
way as in the QuickTime Player.
To switch between different displays, complete the following
steps:
‣ If in full screen mode, switch to one of the window modes
‣ Move the MediaCentral main window to a different display
‣ Switch back to full screen, if desired
Choose Your Aspect Ratio - 4:3 or 16:9
MediaCentral‘s main window can easily switch between a 4:3
or 16:9 aspect ratio.
Complete the following steps to set the aspect ratio:
‣ Use the MediaCentral “Window” menu or the following
keystrokes
✦
4:3 Ratio (⌥⌘ 1)
✦
16:9 Ratio (⌥⌘ 2)
