  • How to set screen resolution on Apple TV Gen2

    This is my first bad out of the box experience with an Apple product. I got my brand new Apple TV Gen 2 and hooked it up to our Sony Receiver/TV.
    Plugged everything in. Turned it on and I got the screen but am not able to change resolution. With the current resolution I can not see all the menus and the display does not fit on the 40" display.
    Tried unplugging.
    Tried doing a reset.
    Tried holding the Menu & Down arrow
    Tried looking through the menus, such as Settings, Video & Audio but can't find anything on setting screen resolution
    Tried searching this forum for instructions for changing resolution
    Much appreciation in advance for any tips or magic tricks on setting screen resolution.

    i also have this problem. i had a long discussion with apple support and the result was that apple tv 2 is not build for connecting it to a receiver but only to a up-to-date flat TV. i don´t know how i managed it to use the 720p resolution but as i had it i set the auto power to off and let it switched on all the time.
    after the update to 4.2.1 it had no chance to get it to 720p. it is locked to 1024x768 which is not the resolution i want to watch HD movies.
    but my setup is not a normal one. i have a onkyo AV receiver which is sending the HDMI signal over a HDMI splitter to an LCD screen and a HD beamer. the LCD screen is an old one which has no HDMI input, i use a HDMI to analog-component converter for this. the HDMI output of the onkyo is connected to a wireless HDMI system from marmitek.
    so its not so the ideal setting for apple tv. i hope that everything works fine if i have a new flat TV with a normal HDMI input.

  • How we will maintain screen resolution for tmaintaining able control in BDC

    how we will maintain screen resolution for tmaintaining able control in BDC. can you give the code or how we have to set it

    Hi,
    You need to use the CTU_PARAM options with the call transaction method.This is used if you would like to do a commit work once call trnasaction is done. This has also got very important property, for example if your Screen resolution is different from others then the screen (Application) will be different that is you'll be having say 5 lines in your screen where as your friend will be having 8 or 10 so your program might fail in this case. If you set variable DEFSIZE as 'X' it will always use the default screen size and hence avoids error.
    Use CALL TRANSACTION 'XXX' OPTIONS FROM w_ctu_params.( type CTU_PARAMS)
    This structure contains the follwing.
    DISMODE : Display mode (like the MODE addition)
    UPDMODE: Update mode (like the UPDATE addition)
    CATTMODE: CATT mode (controls a CATT)
    CATT mode can have the following values:
    ' ' No CATT active
    'N' CATT without single-screen control
    'A' CATT with single-screen control
    DEFSIZE : Use default window size (Here we are handling those transaction by giving default window size)
    RACOMMIT: Do not end transaction at COMMIT WORK
    NOBINPT : No batch input mode (that is, SY-BINPT = SPACE)
    NOBIEND : No batch input mode after the end of BDC data.
    The components DEFSIZE , RACOMMIT, NOBINPT, and NOBIEND always take the following values:
    'X' Yes
    This might help u in better understanding...

  • How can I set screen saver clock which show time and date when all screen is black. Other phones have this option but I didn't find on iphone. Pl guide.

    How can I set screen saver clock which show time and date when all screen is black. Other phones have this option but I didn't find on iphone. Pl guide.

    HA!  I figured the find my iphone out!!!!! You can have more than one icloud account in "Mail, Contacts and Calendars".  So my husband's & kids' phone icloud account under "settings, icloud "is their individual @me.com account.  Set it to everything you want EXCEPT Find My Iphone.  Then under "settings, mail/contacts/calendars" you set up both accounts (your @me.com which may already be there), then add another with the main appleID and enable ONLY Find My Iphone.  Now when any of us log into Find My Iphone from any device with our main apple ID for the app store, all the devices show up!!!! YIPPEE.  I made my own day!
    I think the message I got previously was because I hadn't disabled the find my iphone on the @me.com account first.

  • Qosmio X500 - How to increase the screen resolution?

    Hi,
    Does anybody know how to increase the screen resolution? My qosmio X500 is 1920 x 1080 and I want to raise it to 1920 x 1200.
    Thank you/Red

    Hey
    1) I think the screen brightness is about 180 nits for this qosmio model. If I change the graphics card, can I increase the brightness to 300 NITS levels? If yes, which card do you suggest? If not, how can I achieve this?
    2) When I view the screen in 100 % magnitude, then the texts are too small to read. But then when I view the screen in 125 % or higher, then the texts go blurry. Is there a way to avoid this?

  • How to set screen resolution in BDC

    hi pls give info regarding how to set resolution for screen
    thank you
    Ravi

    hi,
    For screen resolution use ctu_params, with default size
    Data : f_option type ctu_params,
    f_option-updmode = 'S'.
    f_option-defsize = 'X'.
    f_option-dismode = 'N'.
    call transaction 'VA01' using bdcdata options from f_option messages into bdcerror.
    CALL TRANSACTION tcode... OPTIONS FROM opt
    ... OPTIONS FROM opt
    Effect
    Allows you to control processing using the values of the componetns of the structure opt, which must have the ABAP Dictionary type CTU_PARAMS. The components have the following meanings:
    DISMODE
    Display mode (like the MODE addition)
    UPDMODE
    Update mode (like the UPDATE addition)
    CATTMODE
    CATT mode (controls a CATT)
    CATT mode can have the following values:
    ' ' No CATT active
    'N' CATT without single-screen control
    'A' CATT with single-screen control
    DEFSIZE
    Use default window size
    RACOMMIT
    Do not end transaction at COMMIT WORK
    NOBINPT
    No batch input mode (that is, SY-BINPT = SPACE)
    NOBIEND
    No batch input mode after the end of BDC data.
    The components DEFSIZE , RACOMMIT, NOBINPT, and NOBIEND always take the following values:
    'X' Yes
    ' ' No
    If you do not use the OPTIONS FROM addition, the following control parameter settings apply:
    DISMODE
    From addition MODE
    UPDMODE
    From addition UPDATE
    CATTMODE
    No CATT active
    DEFSIZE
    Do not use default window size
    RACOMMIT
    Successful end on COMMIT WORK
    NOBINPT
    Batch input mode active ( SY-BINPT = X
    NOBIEND
    Batch input mode remains active after the BDC data

  • How to turn off "screen resolution" warning in iPhoto?

    I am running OS X Yosemite 10.10.1 on a Mac mini (Late 2012), 2.3 GHz, 4 GB memory, iPhoto version 9.5.1 (902.17). I get the "screen resolution not optimal for iPhoto" warning repetitively about once every 15 minutes as long as iPhoto is running. I have set the resolution to my preference and I don't mind seeing this warning once when I start iPhoto, but it gets annoying. How can I set iPhoto to stop doing this?

    Is there a reason, why you do not update to the Yosemite compatible version iPhoto 9.6? I never get the warning, you are reporting, if the iPhoto window can fit the screen, with MacOS X 10.10.2 and iPhoto 9.6.1.

  • Can't set screen resolution

    I have a Lenovo Yoga 2 Pro.  The native resolution is 3200x1800.  On archlinux (running latest Gnome3), I don't have the option to set the resolution to 1080p (1920x1080).  However, I do have this option on Ubuntu and it works perfectly.
    I have read https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/xr … esolutions and did what it says.  Here's my script to change the resolution:
    xrandr --newmode 1080p 173.00 1920 2048 2248 2576 1080 1083 1088 1120 -hsync +vsync
    xrandr --addmode eDP1 1080p
    xrandr --output eDP1 --mode 1080p
    gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface text-scaling-factor 1.0
    It worked for a while, but a few months ago, it stopped working.  When I run this script, the screen would blink twice, and go back to 3200x1800.  I ran the script with `journalctl -f` on, and here's what's in my logs:
    Mar 21 11:45:42 sargas gdm-Xorg-:0[303]: (II) intel(0): resizing framebuffer to 1920x1080
    Mar 21 11:45:42 sargas gdm-Xorg-:0[303]: (II) intel(0): switch to mode [email protected] on eDP1 using pipe 0, position (0, 0), rotation normal, reflection none
    Mar 21 11:45:43 sargas gdm-Xorg-:0[303]: (II) intel(0): resizing framebuffer to 3200x1800
    Mar 21 11:45:43 sargas gdm-Xorg-:0[303]: (II) intel(0): switch to mode [email protected] on eDP1 using pipe 0, position (0, 0), rotation normal, reflection none
    You can see it switched right back to 3200x1800.  I don't see any information in other logs such as the X logs.  Any idea how I go about debugging it?  I know it's a supported resolution since I can change to it under Ubuntu and it used to work under Arch.
    Thanks in advance!

    My sysadmin skills are rusty. I'm not sure how to see how it was mounted. I selected it from the vm's Devices menu and it gets mounted under /media.

    It is executable, and I believe a ./VBoxLinuxAdditions-x86.run runs it, and yes, by "points to" I meant the first line in the script. So I'm not sure why I have to invoke it as */bin/sh* ./VBoxLinuxAdditions-x86.run to get it to run successfully.
    I'm obviously beyond this, but if you have an answer it would satisfy a bit of curiosity.
    After installing the additions, I can still only run at 1600x1200. I can live with this. I suspect it's a VirtualBox limitation since I can only give 128mb to video memory. After the GUI oracle11g database install, ssh is all I need anyway.
    Thanks all.

  • How to change the screen resolution in Sparc workstation.

    I am using the CDE screen to login. I need to set the screen resolution to 1100*864. How to set?
    solaris 10 current setting is 1280*1024.

    Specs for Ultra20 machine list ATI graphics as " onboard " chipset and the availability of four (4) other plug-in cards as options.
    Depending on the installed graphics card, you must seek different commands, etc. for each change of resolution.
    If you do not have the original manuals that accompanied the unit, check Sun`s site for documentation. They list an abundance of info and the " Getting Started " book gives indepth details about setting up the various graphics options for proper use with the various operating systems. .......................

  • WPB help setting screen resolution

    Hi,
    Just started using WPB and discovered we need to change the screen resolution in our 30 installs of Instant Producer.
    I've changed the resolution setting in Producer and would like to upload the settings to Manager so the Instant Producer users can access it and download it to there computers. I've searched through the Producer guide, but unable to locate any instructions on how to do this. Is anyone familiar with the steps involved to change the settings in the Instant Producer installs.
    Thanks,
    Dave

    Search the forum using the keywords "screen resolution" would be a good place to start.
