Ah okay, so the listed resolutions are the signal input capabilities. I always thought they were what resolutions the TV could display. Thanks.

Actually, that's exactly what they are. From there simply read Pycola's explanation and you've got the whole thing figured out. Basically, the set takes the supported signals and scales them to the native resolution of the screen.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Sorry for the confusion, but thanks for clearing it up, Metal Sphere.

Ah, don't worry. I found that a lot of people make a similar mistake when they see the supported resolutions on a display that is advertised as being a 720p/1080p.

How ya doing, buddy?
