ATi 9700 Pro DVI TV-Out Question

gendo1225 · Feb 6, 2004, 08:30 PM

Hello. I just have a quick question. I'm trying to connect my Radeon 9700 Pro to my widescreen tv using the dvi port from the video card to the tv. It works ok, except that on the tv it's in 4:3 aspect ratio and not in 16:9 so there are black lines on the sides of the screen. I was wondering if there was a setting in the driver or in Windows to change it to 16:9 natively without having to use the display adjustments to 'strech' the screen. Thanks in advance!

If you're using ATI Catalyst drivers, try changing resolution to 1280 x 768 ?
