Being a HTPC newbie and after confusing myself completely by reading the info posted across this forum, I was hoping someone can answer me this.
My Plasma is a Fujitsu PDS 4229 which (according to THIS LINK) has a native resolution of 852 x 480.
AFAIK a DVD has a resolution of 720 x 480 (NTSC). Presumeably, I will need to set my desktop resolution to be as near to 720 x 480 (or the source) as possible, in my case this would be 800 x 600. Until recently, I used a desktop resolution of 1024 x 768.
Can someone explain if my thinking is right here, Im after the truest possible display. Also, is matching the resolution the same as 1:1 pixel mapping I hear people talking about here?
My Setup is...
Hardware
Radeon 9600pro
P4 2.6GHz
512 DDR Ram
80Gb SATA HDD
connected to a 42" Fujitsu Plasma via VGA
Software
Theatertek DVD software
Powerstrip (default settings)
DVD Region Free
