For those with large CRT monitors running at high screen resolutions (like 1280x1024 or 1600x1200), does it improve the video quality to lower the resolution to 800x600 when watching full-screen video?
I figured it would, since at a lower resolution it would require less zooming to make the video full-screen. But I haven't been able to notice any difference in video quality when doing so.
So I'm just curious whether video card drivers are able to compensate for different resolutions when running full-screen video (and thus making any resolution changes pointless). Or whether my eyes just aren't good enough to see the difference.
