1024x786 or 720p? with 16:9 plasma..
« on: April 07, 2008, 08:13:34 am »
Hi all,

What is the best resolution for a plasma tv (1024x768, 16:9), if I choose 1024x768 I get problems with the aspect ratio but I get a pixel perfect picture. If I choose 720p my tv is scaling the picutre and I believe that my graphics card does a better job on scaling than my tv does, so... What are my options?

What resolution you choose largely depends on exactly which TV you connect to. Also many TV's have an issue with overscan. Do a search for modeline's and overscan in the forums and it should help you out.
