[mythtv-users] [OT] please help with monitor settings

[Chad]

Try changing/messing with the Vert/Horiz refresh lines, running lower
numbers and gradually going higher.  Leave the Res at 1024 and Depth
at 24, and just adjust the refresh rates.  I'd start very low, maybe
35-70 and 40 or 50 on the Vert.

Cool
