I'm having an issue trying to send video to my Samsung 16:9 DLP HDTV via DVI-D from my Geforce4 4400 using the Full Screen Device setting in the nVidia drivers. I use a Viewsonic A90 4:3 19" CRT for my primary display and would like to get the video overlay to run full screen on the HDTV when setup in Dualview mode. Everything works really well, execpt that the video is output to the HDTV with letterboxing bars like it is being formatted for a 4:3 TV resulting in a squished image on the HDTV. When I adjust the HDTV to format for a 4:3 image, the image appears correctly (but very small as it has been reduced twice by that time).
The only reliable solution I've found is to run the setup in Clone mode and use 1280x720 resolution on both monitors. But in that case I have to set the DLP as my primary display so the video shows up on there, but then I am left with no video displayed on the PC. Combined that with an unfavorable 16:9 display on my 4:3 monitor, it is not the way I'd like to do this. When I run it like this I do get a correct sized full screen video on the HDTV so I know its possible to have it work, if I can just turn off the 4:3 formatting that the computer is sending on Dualview. I have tried using 1280x720 on both monitors and using Dualview thinking the aspect ratio there might solve the problem, but it did not. Any solutions...?
