<br>><br>> Craig.<br></blockquote></div><br>Thanks all, for the advice, however...<br><br>xvidtune *always* reported that the mode was unsupported, even the functioning mode.<br><br>The problem *isn't* the TV, it's the video output, so adjusting the TV **isn't** the solution. That's like fixing a flat tire by repaving the road. The TV works fine when I use it with it's own tuner or with the (yes, I know it's archaic, but..) VCR.
<br><br>Worse, it seems that the modelines I've tried from the wiki don't get recognized. I had to read between the lines and guess that the first parameter in the modeline is a "label" that is used in the mode statement to add the settings to the list of supported modes. Also, suggested modes like "720x480_60" were silently ignored while "720x480" would be supported. With *no* mode record, I got modes from 640x480 and down to something like 320x240. The TV will work with settings up to at least 1024x768, but text is nigh unreadable.
<br><br>In any case, the display is offset to the right and down on the screen. Still. I can use nvidia-settings to overscan, but then part of the picture would be off the right-hand side of the screen.<br><br>I haven't had time to investigate and I'm getting tired of messing with it, but I seem to recall seeing something about the
xorg.conf settings and TV-out to the effect that having setting(s) that specify TV-out cause modes and/or modelines (and maybe more) to be ignored.<br><br>Additional advice always welcome.<br><br>Craig.<br>
