Tip: running MakeMKV with a big 4k monitor

Post by mike_s »

I apologize if this is documented somewhere and I missed it.

I just upgraded to a 32" 4K monitor, and when I ran MakeMKV the GUI text was small. Now to run MakeMKV, I open a terminal prompt and do:

Code: Select all

QT_SCALE_FACTOR=2 /usr/bin/makemkv
And the GUI is scaled to a nice visibility level on my monitor.

I then made that into a shell script on my path and modified the menu launcher to run the shell script - but I am not going to write out the steps here, the single typed command is easy enough.

I'm on Ubuntu MATE 20.04.
