Hello,
I've been using XBMC for like 8 months now without a problem.
Currently, my setup is an Asus S1-AT5NM10E (NVIDA ION II GT218), no need to tell every details about it, 4 Gb ram, SSD, etc...
I have Ubuntu 10.10 installed, with XBMC 10.1.
My TV is a LG 42PC1R, HD Ready plasma.
Everything is working well, and the box has been setup to use HDMI (ofc), at a resolution of 1080i.
Anyway, my problem is, my xorg.conf I think:
As you can see, it is currently configured to use the EDID file I have setup with this TV.
I'll soon buy a new TV, and I'll need the box to be able to work on both TV (not at the same time tho). For this, I'll use an HDMI Matrix 4x2.
The new TV will be 1080p, so I'll need the box output to be 1080p.
What is the best xorg.conf configuration for me ? Is there a way to set an automatic output resolution (and set XBMC to always use highest possible resolution) ?
Thanks for the answers!
