I have a sandy bridge i2500 computer. I connect my Vizio 46" LCD to my Maranz SR5002 and also the cable box. With the cable box thru the SR5002 there is no issue.
I have the mother board set to multiple displays in the bios.
But the HDMI output from the computer set to extended display gives a 42" screen on the 46" TV. The Intel HD driver reconizes the second display as an SR5002, screen resolution is 1920x1080. The scalling is correct for 16:9, but it just doesn't fill the TV, so I basically have a 46" LCD TV for cable and a 42" LCD TV thru the computer both plugged into the SR5002 .
This wasn't a problem with my AMD 6850 video card but the constant driver updates/bugs had me pull this card, I don't game and was hoping the sandy-bridge HDMI would work but the only means to get a 46" picture is via clone display which is impractical for me.
Any advice appreciated.
