Terminal visible outside XBMC video letterbox

[apoth]

My XBMC menus fill my 16:9 screen, but some films display in a letterbox.

In the black regions above and below the video I can see the terminal output behind. XBMC is started via the init.d service script that's floating around the forums so I don't think the 'clear' hack works - or at least I can find where to put it to make it work.

Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

Same issue here

In the video Playback settings in XBMC, tell XBMC how to handle your 4:3 Videos, If you stretch to 16:9, That will fill your screen.

Unfortunately, that doesn't fix it. Console still visible.

Any other ideas?

I had the same issue when I was running a compiled version of XBMC on top of my Raspbian version. I started using Xbian instead and I did not have the same issue. RaspbMC probably fixes it as well but I haven't used that.
