8.1.1
Principals of Resolution Implementation
After “Play” PC to TV 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 3.3.1.
1.
The resolution of PC’s desktop should be implemented on your TV / Monitor, once
it is within 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 PC to TV 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 would be implemented automatically as
the display resolution on the TV / monitor, after “Play” PC to TV application.
8.1.2
Resolution Implementation Table
The following two tables show the implemented display resolution of your TV /
monitor after “Play” PC to TV application.
