Package: videolink
Version: 0.9-2
Severity: important

(Filing this now that I'm about to fix it, for future reference.)

VideoLink sets the assumed screen resolution to 40 dpi, which I reckon
to be the average resolution of a standard definition TV display.
This should mean that text with a font size expressed in millimetres
or points will appear around the specified size.  Unfortunately this
setting has a different effect under Mozilla/XULRunner 1.8:

Mozilla   Assumed    Requested     Actual size
version  resolution    size     (pixels) (inches)
           (dpi)

  1.7    default:96    20 px       20      0.5
  1.7    default:96    36 pt       48      1.2
  1.7        40        20 px       20      0.5
  1.7        40        36 pt       20      0.5
  1.8    default:96    20 px       20      0.5
  1.8    default:96    36 pt       48      1.2
  1.8        40        20 px       48      1.2
  1.8        40        36 pt       48      1.2

So all text ends up 2.4 times too large in the current sid package!

Ben.
