I recently acquired a Pioneer PDP-5016HD, I got it as part of Pioneer's clearance promotion on these models. It's a very nice display, and I'm fairly happy with it, except for tearing my hair out trying to get a 1:1 pixel mapping from my HTPC.
The 5016 model has no direct DVI input, so I'm using a DVI cable + a DVI->HDMI adapter. I've played with both an NVIDIA and ATI card, and I have PowerStrip installed and I tried goofing around with that, but I can't figure out how to set a 1365x768 mode that the display will accept.
I've seen some indication that perhaps the Pioneer plasmas do not actually accept their native resolution via HDMI/DVI. Is this true? If so, what's my next best option? I'm currently using 1192x692, which I selected by first setting 1280x720 and then using NVIDIA's overscan correction GUI.
Anyway, any help with this would be most appreciated. Thanks!
