Icon Size (File List) on HDTV is squished, OK on monitor

ATV4...

On a monitor, the video file display view "Icon", shows 4 files across in std HD format size.
However, when same list is displayed on an HDTV, the "Icon" view shows 7 files across in "squished" format.

What settings do I need to tweak for the ATV connected to the Samsung LED HDTV to view properly rendered thumbnails?

Videos play in full size, perfectly on both. Both monitor and TV are 1920x1080 capable. Using Amber Skin on V 1.2. SMB shares from WD MyCloud, (Libdsm not enabled).

Can't now, but was able to re-create on monitor or HDTV, once I found the fix. Forgot to mention have 2 ATVs :roll:

On the original ATV on the HDTV, I had changed to newly released Amber skin AFTER adding the shares. On the newer ATV4 on the monitor, I set Amber skin before adding the shares. Once, I deleted and re-added shares to the ATV on HDTV, the files displayed properly.

Thank you for the response. Hopefully, this might help others who already have shares and then change to a new skin and see odd results.
