[QUOTE="Simian60, post: 204312, member: 58154"] The HDMI will accept the standard (HD) TV screen resolutions: 1280x720, 1920x1080, 720x480, 540x480, and so on. The VGA port will only work properly with 1024x768. HDMI will be overscanned, so you will lose ~20 display pixels at each edge of the screen. VGA will not be overscanned. On my JVC, I get the best results with 720p input (1280x720) on the HDMI port (with either the HDMI or the DVI output of my graphics card), and the video display corrected for overscan on the PC (I think MP can do this if the card does not support it). Most 720p sets actually have 1366x768 screens, and stretch the video to fit, because of some daft legacy PC resolution so in the end you will have a HD video at 1280x720, converted to a 1250x700 window by MP, and then spread over 1366x768 by the TV. If you're worried about pixel perfect HD, then you need a 1080p set, which has an option of turning off the overscan - something not often mentioned in the technical specifications, but the manufacturers should be able to tell you if you ask them.
