[QUOTE="bigj, post: 274901, member: 10940"] Hi, I do now have a projector. But I run it on the 2nd head (DVI->HDMI) in clone mode. The CRT is PAL interlaced VGA->SCART - mode is 720x576 I use powerstrip to ensure that the cloned mode is *not* interlaced so get full progressive. This means I just turn on the projector or TV or both and it just works. I don't get the native proj res (1280x720) so proj is scaling up from 720x576 - but then I don't have any HD sources so no worries there really. I may update TV to LCD in future - if I get HD DVBT or Bluray - and would be sure to get device handling 720p so could run both devices at 1280x720 If cloning isn't an option or the resolution definitely needs to change - it's worth noting that using TVServer it isn't that much of a hassle now shutting down MP and setting new mode - I mean recordings continue. It might be easy to write a script that automates MP shutdown/mode change/MP restart. oops - as indeed you say you are already doing. [/QUOTE]
