Adding a 576i custom resolution - Ubuntu
#1
Hi all,

I am new to Ubuntu (switching from Windows).

I am trying to add a custom resolution (576i) when connecting an ASROCK ION330HT (with xbmc installed) to a panasonic SDTV CRT.

I have previously had success connecting a laptop to the SDTV using powerstrip (Vista). Now that I am using Ubuntu I dont have that option.

I have used xrandr to try and add a 576i resolution (using --newmode, --addmode, --output). When I view the available resolutions using "xrandr -q", for the new 576i resolution I see the following:

720x576_@25i (0x19f) 14.0MHz
h: width 720 start 728 end 792 total 864 skew 0 clock 16.2KHz
v: height 576 start 593 end 598 total 625 clock 25.9Hz

Can anyone explain (0x19f)? I am wondering if that is an error??

Alternatively...has anyone had success with this and can offer advice??

Cheers,
