[mythtv-users] What Resolution Are You Using?

[jasonmiller]

Technically NTSC is 320x240, PAL is 320x288.  Of course, as far as capture goes, you do get some benefit by sampling at double the horizontal resolution.  However, there isn't much reason to sample at double the vertical resolution.  320x480 for an NTSC signal should not look noticeably different than 640x480.

Depends on the norm. PAL is 768(720?)x576, I think, so I use 800x600. 
NTSC is something like 640x480.
