What can done be about HDTV overscan? & More.

Post by agentdavo »

Greetings!

Well done Shallax and Co on what must be the most impressive week yet for xbox linux. Three cheers!!

Currently i use a Sanyo PLV-Z1, with normal VGA with my pc. I'm able to get a 1:1 pixel mapping (960x540) with the following mode line.

"960x540" 61,031 960 1112 1216 1264 540 541 544 568 -hsync +vsync

Is there anyway that i could get a 1:1 pixel mapping with either the component out? Or would i have to get an X2VGA? Would this support this resolution mapping?

I can used 480p at the moment with no problems, but there is about an 5% overscan. Can anything be done to compensate for the overscan whilst still maintaing a good picture?

Thank for your work, may it bring you a 1.5!
That reminds me, has Shallax got a 1.5 fund going yet? I'm in for £20.

Davo.
