hello
I own a plasma 37 "with resolution 1024 * 720 how can I do, because I do not accept this

What do your /etc/X11/xorg.conf look like? How are you loading xbmc? How are you connecting the PC to the TV? What are you running xbmc on (hardware, particularly video card)?

Wow...

Sorry for my english!!

This is my xorg.conf :

Section "Screen"
Identifier "Default Screen"
DefaultDepth 24

EndSection

Section "Module"
Load "glx"
EndSection

Section "Device"
Identifier "Default Device"
Driver "nvidia"
Option "NoLogo" "True"
EndSection

- First load Ubuntu to take advantage of the internet and when I watch a movie screen access to all xbmc

- The Panasonic TX-PF37X10 1024 x 720 with an HDMI cable, for the moment because I'm still configuring them have also connected a 19 "LCD with VGA

- The PC is a 330 with ion Zotac NVIDIA 9400M vga, 4gb ram, 250 hdd

grazie

Run nvidia-xconfig to make a new xorg.conf then put the resolution you want in it (1280x720 for example), then reload X.

Sorry but where do I put the resolution 1024 * 720

# nvidia-xconfig: X configuration file generated by nvidia-xconfig

Section "ServerLayout"

I must also consider who is the second monitor?

Try it under the Depth 24 line. So:

if I put instead of 1280 * 720 - 1024 * 720 and nothing happens to us persons of the parties to the desk that I can not see

What resolution do you want it to run in? 1024x720? I don't think this is a standard HD resolution. What is the model number of your TV?

720p = 1280x720
1080p=1920x1080

Also, do not use an * character, you need to use a lowercase x

Sorry

i have a panasonic TX-PF37X10 The resolution that they say have this TV in 1024x720

Sorry, take advantage of your kindness, how can I make it appear XBMC on the second monitor

Well, if 1024x720 doesn't work in the xorg.conf I don't know! I don't know how to do dual monitors either. Never tried.

Many plasma TVs have non-standard resolutions to reduce costs.

@saratoga - didn't know that... does the op have any options?

My Plasma also has 1024 x 720 (panasonic 37") and I am trying to find how to set it up to use this resolution in an optimal manner.

Right now I am running on 1280x768, but I end up missing the top and bottom.. Quite essential.

Has anyone had any success with this resolution?

arielgr - check my post here:

In a nutshell, if you can, run Windows on the machine in question and display out to your plasma with the resolution you want (I'll assume you want 1920x1080). Generate the timings and grab the linux modeline, and follow what I outline in my post and you'll be all set.
