So it wont be 1:1 anyway, or am I wrong here? I know > this is a bit off topic, but there seems to be a fair bit of > experience here. With my TV I've tried running vdr-sxfe at 1360x768@60 (which the TV does accept over HDMI, but not VGA), 1280x720@50 and 720x576@50. Surprisingly 720x576 seems to look a bit rougher to me than the other two resolutions. I find 1280x720 is slightly better than 1360x768 for VDR because of the matching refresh rate. -- TH * http://www.realh.co.uk _______________________________________________ vdr mailing list vdr@xxxxxxxxxxx http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
