7.2.2
Principals of PC2TV Resolution Implementation
After “Play” PC2TV application, the TV / monitor would follow the three principals to
implement the display resolution. By the way, the “Extension Screen” follows the same
principals, please refer to
Section 2.4.3.1
.
1.
The resolution of PC’s desktop should be implemented on your TV / Monitor, once it
is w ithin your TV / monitor’s EDID (Extended Display Identification Data)
information. Please refer to your TV / monitor’s user manual to check its resolution
support table. If not, please see “
Auto-720P
”.
2.
“
Auto-720P
” means the PC’s desktop resolution is higher then 1,280 x 720 (HDTV:
720P), but TV / monitor’s EDID does not support it and only supports 1,280 x 720,
then 1,280 x 720 would be implemented as the display resolution on both sides of
PC and TV / monitor. If not, please see “
Auto-XGA
”
3.
“
Auto-XGA
” means the PC’s desktop resolution is higher then 1,024 x 768 (XGA),
but TV / monitor’s EDID supports neither PC’s desktop resolution nor 1,280 x 720,
then 1,024 x 768 would be implemented as the display resolution on the TV /
monitor.
For HDMI output
, the supported resolutions of PC2TV application are only 1,920 x 1,080,
1,280 x 720, 1,024 x 768, and 800 x 600. If the PC’s resolution is not set at one of them,
the 1,280 x 720 or 1,024 x 768 w ould be implemented automatically as the display
resolution on the TV / monitor, after “Play” PC2TV application.
