[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1796627, member: 56379"] Yes you did.:) Which means we're back to the response I gave in post #2 of the thread.:) The thing to remember or be aware of is...all this 720p, 1080i, and 1080p stuff may not be relevant. These resolutions can be scaled by the TV. What could be more important to know is...what's the native resolution of the LCD TV in pixels. [U]For example:[/U] - a true 1080p TV will have a native resolution of 1920 x 1080 - a true 720p LCD TV will have a native resolution of 1280 x 720 There of course are variations on this depending on the exact aspect ratio of the TV (4:3, 16:9, etc.). The important thing to realize when connecting a computer to a TV is...it's the pixel resolution (native resolution) that's important...not so much the 720p and 1080p stuff. Thus if someone has a LCD TV with a native resolution of 1280 x 720...that resolution is the BEST resolution for that TV...and probably the best resolution to set a computer to when connected to that LCD TV. When you deviate from that setting...things on the TV can get BIG, small, or fuzzy. HTH, - Nick p.s. Generally speaking. TV's are not really as good as true computer monitors when it comes to sharpness. [/QUOTE]
