(archibael, please check and mark my homework ).

Don't know if it'll work but that's the DTD.

Many thanks.
With the above setting (as a start) I can with DTD tune the LCD to any 1080P refresh rate, even up to 60Hz, which I tried this morning.
This didn't work before with ATI, as then it limited to 50Hz.. And I thought it all was the LCD limiting.

Once again great thanks for your support.

I need a DTD for my Panasonic Plasma TH-37PV500E. In the manual it says that it should be able to run the following res from the HDMI

1125 (1080) / 50 i hor. freq 28.13 Khz vert. freq 50.00 Hz
1125 (1080) / 60 i hor. freq 33.75 Khz vert. freq 60.00 Hz

Remember I am in the PAL area here

I tried to enter the "normal" 1080i DTD but with 1920 which did not work at all. Also tried just to alter the 1920 back to 1125 But for some reason it will not write that to the reg. This was the DTD I tried to alter.

02 3A 80 D0 72 38 2D 40 10 30 45 80 00 00 00 00 00 1E

What I dont quite get is that the TV manual also says it from the PC-VGA port can run 1280*1024 @ 60 Hz

Right now I have to look at 1184*666 at 60 hz which is then underscaned left and right and it flicker badly.

Any help from you guys please ?

Btw. I am completly new to the AVS forum here so be polite

Can you post the report from the Intel Graphics Tray? If you save it first, the resulting .txt will include the EDID information from your screen. If we can get this I'm sure we can come up with something for you.

Cheers,

This is the value you need to enter into the reverse calculator for adjustment.

Don't forget, if there is already a 1920x1080 (or 1920x540) resolution selectable in the driver, you must adjust it slightly before saving to the registry so you'll be able to select it before using the tuning tools. All of these issues are covered in past posts but if you need further assistance please let us know.

Size is perfect now thanks to the Tune feature in the calculater. But the text seems blured or like alittle out of shape so it is very hard to read. I tried to adjust the dpi setting up to over 120 which helped alittle, but I thought I would have got super sharp image and text by now. Is this because I run interlaced and can it help to go up to 60 hz or is my Plasma screen just very bad ?

btw. I have tried to use the 8/12 divider rule so it is now 1824*1020 which did not help.

Also 1824*1020 is quite 16:9 so the aspect ratio is a little out. 1824*1026 would give you exactly 16:9 if you can afford to lose that many vertical pixels you could give it a try.

I know it's "forbidden" these days but 720p could be your friend

I have a problem: i have a Dell 640m (Intel GMA 945) and a Panasonic pt-ax200E projector (1280x720 native resolution) but maximum resolution is 1024x768.

How use 1280x720 on my projector ?

I have talked with Archibael on softwarecommunity.intel.com/isn/Community/en-US/forums/30248314/ShowThread.aspx#30248314 for find a solution, but nothing work !

I have tried :
BC 1B 00 A0 50 20 17 30 30 20 26 00 4B CF 10 00 00 19 => 1024x768 max
BC 1B FE A2 40 20 17 30 30 20 26 00 4B CF 10 00 00 19 => 1024x768 max
1C 1D 00 8C 51 D0 1E 20 20 38 46 00 00 00 00 00 00 1E
=> VGA don't work, the screen of the laptop is 800x600 (nothing on the videoprojector ), then returned immediately to 1440x900.
2F 1D 00 68 51 D0 26 20 28 30 22 00 00 00 00 00 00 1E
=> Only 800x600 aviable (not 1024x768)
1A 1D 00 8C 51 D0 1E 20 20 38 46 00 00 00 00 00 00 1E
=> VGA don't work

I read the projector' manual, and I find :
D2 1C 00 58 51 D0 25 20 20 18 F7 10 00 00 00 00 00 1E => 1024x768 max


Archibael said me :
"Wo0zy on the AVSForum knows a lot more about the DTDCalculator tool, and I'm sure he'd love to help out"

Can you help me ?
