Well my uncle just got a 50 inch plasma TV today, and bought a wireless keyboard and mouse so he could hook his laptop up to it and surf the net on the couch. Well I ran the laptop to the tv using S-video. The tv says it runs at 1280x1024. SO I set it as the 2nd monitor at 1280x1024.

Now the problem is that the visual quaility just isnt there. It has a RGB in. Now would that be the better way to go?
Just give me the things I should do to optimze its visual quality.


Thanks, Lance
 
you can try the 1024x768 setting. remember text and computer stuff will always suck on a tv from a computer, but good video won't
 
Hmmm... Another question about using a TV as a second monitor. Perhaps I need to make a sticky.

Anyways, instead of typing it all out again, here is a link to another thread that I think may be useful for you.
