I think I am missing something here, why is xrandr important?

If you're using HDTV, you need xrandr to display 1080i and 720p natively. Otherwise, you have to scale one to the other.

I could probably also be useful if you use different recording profiles for SDTV. If you were to cook up a 480x480, 640x480, and 720x480 modeline, for instance... no scaling necessary for anything.

Alas, my mythtv box is still running RH9 with XFree86... no xrandr there until I redo it.
