[mythtv-users] Requesting help w/modelines, AA A960, and 1280 x 768

Wed May 17 03:43:05 UTC 2006

1366 x 768 would be ideal, BUT would be happy to get 1280 x 768 running on my Proview 32" LCD over component video using an Audio Authority A960 transcoder, for now. Configuration is .19 using an Asus Extreme N6300TC256/TD video card. 
  I can view 1280 x 768 when I connect to the RGB port. For convenience sake, I would like to run all my feeds through my receiver hence the need for component video. 
  When I connect using the A960, I get a very unstable picture at POST, and then nothing, When referring to the XFree86.0.log I get the following 'Setting mode "1280x1024"'. When connecting RGB, the log would read back "1280 x 768" and a stable image would appear on the screen. I've expunged all reference to "1280 x 1024" and "640 x 512" but the darn thing keeps appearing in the log. 
  For diagnostic assistance I am including the XFree86.0.log and XF86Config. 
  Any chance someone on the forum can help me out? 
  Thanks!
