1440x900 or 1152x900?
« on: June 03, 2008, 10:47:21 PM »
I bought a new 19" widescreen monitor, and I want to use it with my Amiga. On my peecee the best resolution is 1440x900 but when I run P96 on the Amiga and choose this resolution it's not correct. The resolution that is full screen is 1152x900. Is that right? :-?

Well, what's the native resolution of the monitor? (I'm assuming it's LCD...) The PC's probably right in fairness - they're usually pretty good at the plug n play stuff these days. I'd imagine if you can select that resolution but part of the display is missing that tweaking the horizontal framesize in Picasso96Mode for that mode will get it close enough that the LCD can lock onto it and display it full frame.

I guess 1440x990 it's the native so you should define a new 1440x990 in P96 and start the fun part of playing with edit mode :S

It took me 2hours to be able to make my 23" Samsung LCD/TV to play smoothly with P96@1360x768 using edit mode blind (using cursor keys+crt+shift etc)

I used 1440x990 in a previous Samsung 19" just fine mate so you only need to experiment with a new mode from scratch.
