hey folks,
i got ubuntu + xbmc ppa svn running on my box now. still testing on a regular dell tft monitor though ...
now i am about to hook it up to my TH-42pa50 Panasonic plasma which has a native resolution of 852x480. Component in can take 480p of course + 720p and 1080i ... those two are then scaled by the plasma.
Now I am wondering how I should set up my xorg.conf ... should I try to output the native panel resolution of 852x480?
My next question would be, how do the tv-out resolution and the video resolution I can set inside XBMC interact? E.g. when I have tvout set to 480p in xorg.conf, does it make any sense to set XBMC Video to 720p? I am a bit confused about how these two resolution settings are related to each other.
It would be really great if someone could explain this ...
thanks,
boba
