idlehands Wrote:I'm getting closer to figuring this out, however I'm a little confused. Is the process to tweak xorg.conf to get a correct value, that then will show up in the xbmc settings? I am pretty sure I set a mode for 720p in xorg, however when i recycle everything and check in xbmc to see if the mode shows up, its not there.

Code:
ection "ServerLayout"
    Identifier     "Layout0"
    Screen      0  "Screen0" 0 0
    InputDevice    "Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard"
    InputDevice    "Mouse0" "CorePointer"
EndSection

Section "Files"
EndSection

Section "InputDevice"

    # generated from default
    Identifier     "Mouse0"
    Driver         "mouse"
    Option         "Protocol" "auto"
    Option         "Device" "/dev/psaux"
    Option         "Emulate3Buttons" "no"
    Option         "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
EndSection

Section "InputDevice"

    # generated from default
    Identifier     "Keyboard0"
    Driver         "kbd"
EndSection

Section "Monitor"
    Identifier     "Monitor0"
    VendorName     "Unknown"
    ModelName      "Unknown"
    HorizSync       15.0 - 46.0
    VertRefresh     59.0 - 61.0
    Option         "DPMS" "FALSE"
    Option "ExaceModeTimingsDVI" "TRUE"
    Modeline "1280x720_60.00"  74.48  1280 1336 1472 1664  720 721 724 746  -hsync +vsync

EndSection

Section "Device"
    Identifier     "Device0"
    Driver         "nvidia"
    VendorName     "NVIDIA Corporation"
    Option "ModeValidation" "NoEdidModes"
    Option "UseEDIDFreqs" "FALSE"
EndSection

Section "Screen"
    Identifier     "Screen0"
    Device         "Device0"
    Monitor        "Monitor0"
    DefaultDepth    24
    Option         "NoLogo" "True"
    Option         "IgnoreEDID" "true"
    Option "DynamicTwinView" "False"
    Option "FlatPanelProperties" "Scaling = Native"
    SubSection     "Display"
        Depth       24
    Modes "1280x720_60"
    EndSubSection
EndSection

I created the mode from a gtf for 720p @60hz I'm also guessing at HorizSync and VertRefresh based on a "training manual" i found for my tv thta said 720p was 45khertz and vert was 60hz

thanks!

Modes "1280x720_60" needs to be Modes "1280x720_60.00" as set in modeline Wink
