Eh? My LCD is marked as 16:9 and 1440x900 is native resolution. Maybe this will be problem with my xorg.conf setup? -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Dan Harnett Sent: Monday, August 25, 2008 7:48 PM To: misc@openbsd.org Subject: Re: TV out for Xorg/OpenBSD? - OT On Mon, Aug 25, 2008 at 08:21:00AM +0100, Tomas Bodzar wrote: Nice page,but I can't set my resolution 1440x900 ,it's changing to 1440x810 Did you restriction the aspect ratio to 16:9? 1440x900 is 16:10.

Maybe this will be problem with my xorg.conf setup? 1440x900 is 16:10, not 16:9. (1440 / 810) = (16 / 9) = 1.77 (1440 / 900) = (16 / 10) = 1.6 There is a check box on that form to restrict the aspect ratio. If you checked off 16:9 but still entered a 16:10 resolution, then it would only generate the modeline for a 16:9 resolution, which happened to be 1440x810 in your case. I also do not know if you're referring to a LCD TV, or a computer monitor. It's quite possible your LCD physically is 16:9, but still has a 16:10 input resolution and the picture is scaled appropriately internally. For example, my LCD TV seems to only allow 4:3 resolutions on the VGA input even though the physical aspect ratio is 16:9. It will take a 1400x1050 resolution and scale it to fit the full screen (1920x1080). I have to use 'mplayer -monitoraspect 16:9 ...' to prevent videos from being displayed as a stretched out and misshaped 4:3 image.

Not a bad idea, but I don't know how. You need an interlaced [EMAIL PROTECTED] mode. A suitable modeline should be findable with google. OK, well [EMAIL PROTECTED] is the standard vga option in xorg.conf. This fails :( As for modelines, googling modeline tvmodel xorg doesn't bring back any results. Hi Edd, The online XFree modeline generator [1] can generate interlace modelines - are they any different to the one's you've tried? HTH Fred [1] http://xtiming.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/xtiming.pl
