[QUOTE="Yianni1066, post: 537295, member: 22397"] LOL!! who's ranting?? I know how good Apple are, all i did was ask the question and got a response saying I couldnt do it, something which is simple on the PC, it is beyond belief!! You obviously took it quite badly you must be somekind of Apple fanatic who will defend them no matter what they do even when what they do is LAME! Yeah, you're right the problem is with the mirror mode and maybe what I want is an unreadable resolution, the point is that on the PC I HAVE THAT OPTION!! I do not have that option on the mac. What I want is not to use the TV as a monitor for surfing the web etc... Im just going to play movies on it and I have found that no matter how bad the resolution to the TV, movies ALWAYS LOOK GREAT!! But on the MAC the moment I plug in the TV it messes my primary screen and I can not have the standard 1920x1200 res. WHY?!? My PC drives my primary monitor at its normal resolution and when I plug in a second screen my primary monitor stays the same, it doesnt change at all and I have arrange to choose from for the second screen, no matter HOW BAD the res is I CAN DO IT!! Also, I have been an apple user for years, I own a 17" PB, 24" Imac, my wife has a MB all over an AEBS and I have an Iphone, so you dont need to tell me how good they are, all im saying is that the above is... and it is... LAME! [/QUOTE]
