Again you put these line in the monitor section
This may depend a bit on how and what the nvidia card it is connected to. If it is connected to a TV then try 720x576 as 768/720 = 1.0333. which is the width of a PAL TV pixel. IIRC NTSC has a slightly different ratio (see http://www.strata.com/support/3dmanual/ch13/ch13_7.html) > On Sunday, September 23, 2007, 4:29:52 PM, Hugo wrote: > >> My first approach was to launch freevo from gdm and i already had >> everything working in this setup.
