How to get correct widescreen resolution on Dell 2005 FPW

Hi all,
I am running a G4, 10.4.6, with a Rage128Pro card. I have a Dell 2005FPW widescreen as well, which the G4 won't quite recognize. It finds it as a display, but instead of running as a 1680x1050 as intended, it stretches 1280x1024 even though from what I can find online, the card should be able to support the widescreen res. The correct resolution does not show up in the display preferences list.
I can see the Dell in the displays menu using the top bar, but it is grayed out so I can't pick it.
Any suggestions? I need to do some graphics work on this setup and it will be quite tough with a stretched display.
Thanks!
G4   Mac OS X (10.4.6)  

I was afraid of that, since all the specs I could find on it varied and it sounds like there are many versions of the Rage 128 out there; who knows what I have? Any suggestions on what to go with or avoid? I do not do a lot of gaming; I just need a card that can handle this resolution for web and print design work.
Thank you for your time.

  • How to get 16:9 resolutions when using DVI to Video Adapter?

    I just plugged my new Intel Mac Mini into a 16:9 widescreen TV with the Apple DVI to Video Adaptor (PAL Video version).
    It only offers me:
    640x480
    720x480
    720x576
    800x600
    1024x768
    (all interlaced)
    I do get a choice of 50hz (PAL) or 60hz (NTSC).
    However, I don't get the widescreen options I've seen in some Apple screenshots.
    I'm plugging it into a PAL TV via an s-video cable.
    I intend later to plug it into a larger 42" plasma with same cable, but wanted to test it on this TV first.
    More info:
    I noticed, when I bought the "DVI to Video Adapter" that there were NTSC and PAL version. Both seem to do PAL though.
    Any help on this most appreciated.

    Concerning your question, "if only i knew the the correct entries for a custom displayconfig x timing," I think I can answer that one for you.
    It sounds like you have other Macs at your disposal that are correctly driving the TV you are trying to drive with the Intel mini. In that case, install DisplayConfigX on one of those computers and while it is running the TV at the desired resolution, click on the "Card" tab in DCX and then click on the "+" symbol at the bottom right corner. This will open a window in DCX titled "Resolution details" and you will see all the detailed information of the timing you need to enter into DCX on the Intel mini.

  • Windows Phone 8.1 (Sliverlight and Win RT) - How to get accessible camera resolutions?

    I would like to ask, how it is possible to get all accessible camera resolutions in Windows Phone 8.1 app (for both silverlight and WinRT). I wanted to use:
    Windows.Phone.Media.Capture.PhotoCaptureDevice.GetAvailableCaptureResolutions(
    Windows.Phone.Media.Capture.CameraSensorLocation.Back);
    But I am getting message that namespace Windows.Phone.Media.Capture is obsolete and may not be supported from next version of Windows Phone starting with Windows Phone Blue and that I should use Windows.Media.Capture instead. However Windows.Media.Capture
    does not allow me to get accessible camera resolutions, so I would like to ask, how to solve this.
    Thank you.

    Here are the official informatiosn about the camera in general:

  • How to get correct format in file at Application server

    Hi,
    I am retrieving data MATNR,MAKTX,VENDOR,VENDOR NAME,PRODUCT HIERARCHY,QUANTITY(LABST),BUDAT.
    I am downloading the data into .xls file in both presentation and application server.
    In presentation I am getting correct format.
    Where as in application server I am not getting proper format.
    Quantity(MARD-LABST) is not coming proprely.(###6## instead of 36)
    How to get it in correct forma?I

    symbol means  Space
    Before transfer the data to File..
    condense MARD-LABST and then transfer it.
    I guess you are using charcter field LABST while transferring the data to file.
    Do not use quantity field directly,please move it to charcter field then condense it.

  • How to get correct node in JTree with DISCONTIGUOUS_TREE_SELECTION mode?

    The following code creats a JTree with DISCONTIGUOUS_TREE_SELECTION mode. When select a single node, the node's name is printed correctly as expected. However, in Window environment, after select one node, if holding the ctrl key and select a different node, the program still prints out the name of the first selected node although both nodes are highlighted. Can some one tell me how to get the name of the second (i.e. the last) selected node printed?

  • How to get correct voltage reading?

    Currently I am using PCL-818 DAS card from Advantech. Advantech's test program shows value correctly and I compare it with the multimeter. Problem is that I cannot get them correctly. For eg. The actual reads 5V but the indicator on front panel reads 0.09V instead. I used Advantech's AIVoltageIn.vi. What are the right adjustments I should apply on the Numeric Indicator's properties?

    I had to deal once with an Advantech card and I think you had to first
    configure it for a certain input range, which depends on the card you
    are using, or maybe jumbers on it :-(. Your problem looks very much like
    the card is configured to read for instance 0 - 10 V but the software
    believes the card is set to -5 - +5 V.
    Of course the configuration param
    eter on that VI was just a number 0, 1,
    2, 3, 4, etc so it was not very user friendly and in that particular
    case I just played around a bit until I got the correct measurements.
    I told however the guy asking me to show him how to get the card
    running, that I didn't very much like this driver and that I feel a LOT
    more comfortable to program with NI-DAQ than this quite user unfriendly
    library. Not sure if he did buy his next card from NI though.

  • How to get correct coordinate & size of components in scaled swf

    I use canvas (I set it to fit whole screen size) to enclose a swfloader which loads a swf with width & height set to 100%. This swf has a movieclip. How can I get the correct coordinates of its position and its size after scaled in Flex?
    In the Flash CS4, the movielip has x=40, y=700. In Flex, the swf is scaled 100% but when I get the x value of this movieclip, it's still 40. I try to get the scale ratio of x-axis by refering to swf's scaleX. But its 1, weird enough.
    How can I get correct coordinates of movieclip?

    I do try the localToGlobal but it seems its 1:1 ratio, the codes I use:
    // swf is loaded by swfloader, there's a movieclip child named 'child_mc' in it, I want to locate its postion and size. It's top-left coordinates in flash cs4 is 4,740
    var swf_obj:MovieClip = MovieClip(swf.content);
    var mymc:MovieClip = swf_obj.child_mc;
    child_before:Point = new Point(mymc.x, mymc.y);
    child_after:Point = swf.localToGlobal(child_before);
    Alert.show(
         "before:"+child_before.x+","+child_before."y"+"\n"
         + "after:"+child_after.x+","+child_after."y"+"\n"
    the dump result is:
    before:4,740
    after:4,740
    dump screenshot is here: http://img198.imageshack.us/img198/2396/image2ew.png
    I use values of child_after to draw green box. The white box is child_mc's actual position after scaled to fit canvas size (in turn the screen size). You can see they are far from each other. Why?
    Do you mean I have to multiply the transform matrix myself to get the correct position?

  • Cant get any widescreen resolutions using a MDP - VGA adpater

    I recently purchased an Official Apple Mini-display port to VGA adpter for use with 2011 unibody MacBook Pro and Samsung Syncmaster 2232 BW external monitor. When plugging everything in and going into displays, I am presented with the attatched display,
    with no option for any 16:10 resolutions, everything non widescreen down from 1600 x 1200. I've tried SwitchResX with no avail, and don't know what else to try? This is my monitor and its Native settings are 1680 x 1050
    Any suggestions?

    I have resolved this problem, and will explain how for the sake of anyone else who enctounters it.
    Instal SwitchResX, create a Custom Resolution with the exact same settings as the MacBook's 1680 x 1050 display mode, save and apply it (will need restart) . You can then Uninstall SwitchResX, and the custom resolution shall remain stored in the System Preferences > Display. This is good as you don't need to purchase SwitchResX, you can just use the 10 day trial, however if you need the other facilities of the program I would recommend you support the developers.
    Hope this helps others out who get stuck with the same annoying problem!

  • Has anyone ever figured out how to get a decent resolution menu in SD?

    Every time I have to author a DVD from DVD Studio Pro I am unhappy. The menu always looks horrible, very low resolution, notably the text. In the past I've tried a dozen different things to get it to look better. Making the menu in Photoshop, text and all, making it EXACTLY the right size for SD ... I've never found a setting in preferences that would suggest a higher quality rendering of the menu. The resolution of image and text in the actual MPEG2 file, the movie itself, is just fine (in this case done by Compressor), but the DVD Studio Pro menu, always sub-standard.
    Does it make a difference if I set (in the preferences) final rendering as 'hardware based' or 'software based'? (I'm trying a test at the moment... but thought it wouldn't hurt to ask.)
    Perhaps someone has figured a fix over the last year? Or perhaps someone can suggest a better app that interfaces nicely with FCP/Compressor?
    All ears, Ben

    I haven't done any real menu creation in a couple years, but I know exactly what you're talking about. It has to do with pixel aspect ratios, and it was really confusing.
    IIRC, the widescreen template in Photoshop didn't correspond correctly with DVDSP. I was able to get a clean menu by creating it, resizing it, then saving and importing into DVDSP. The menu looked way out of whack when I saved in Photoshop, but came through crisp and clean in DVDSP.
    Sorry I can't remember the exact details, but it's at least a direction to start looking in.

  • How to get correct aspect ratio? Hi-8 transfer

    I am Importing through a Datavideo box but cannot get the aspect ratio correct No matter how I set the project I get a 4:3 aspect rather than 16:9.
    I don't have the problem in IMovie HD. When I open new project inImovie it asks for standard or widescreen and mports correctly.

    I posted screen shots of each step I took.

    I downloaded the file from the camera to an event.
    I created a new Project  in 720x480 anamorphic
    I went to timeline and the file is no not anamorphic.
    http://www.flickr.com/photos/yoda8945
    I a now starting to understand how this anamorphic thing works. It can stay at 4:3, but at some point I need 16:9.
    How do I batch change in the browser? I don't find anything about an anamorphic flag.

  • How to get input device resolution?

    Hi,
    In Java, the mouse movement is captured only when the cursor moves in the screen? I have mouse with much high resolution (1600dpi) and tablet pc with pen which is also much higher resolution , while screen has 72dpi resolution. Hence I am loosing several data when I am writing in a panel (the data's are getting quantized wrt screen resolution).
    How to generate an mouseMoved or mouseDragged event, when mouse /pen moves at it's resolution, rather than screen resolution?
    I am using it for a tablet pc ink/scribble kind of application, wher the images are looking flatted when zoomed, due to this quantization.
    Any solution is appreciated.
    abir

    Hi,
    It is likely that you may have to go at a lower level than AWT to get such information. It seems that the AWT MouseEvent is only capable of dealing with screen co-ordinates. I'd look at the AWT source code to see where and how it's getting the information for the MouseEvents it creates, and then figure out a way to grab that information before AWT gets its' hands on it.
    It isn't a solution, but if you're stuck for ideas, it could be a start.
    Cheers,

    1.) Read [this excellent introduction into Unicode|http://www.joelonsoftware.com/articles/Unicode.html]. The subject is more complex than you think.
    2.) Verify at each point in your program that your String contains the correct value. Note that using System.out.println() might not be helpful here, since the console might not be able to display those characters.
    3.) When a String contains invalid characters, then the error already happened before! Don't try to fix it after the fact, look where the original byte[]->String transition is made and make sure that it is correct.

  • How to get correct result in MD04

    Hi Gurus,
    For a packaging material under this process order A01, it requires 10000 EA.
    Goods issue to order done in 3 batches,
    first posting with 2 batches:
    ABatch - 2372.00
    BBatch - 7610.00
    2nd posting one batch:
    BBatch - 50.00
    When run MD04, it still show that this process order need 7,578.000 qty, and when i checked the material under this
    process order A01, qty withdrawn only 2422.00.
    But in MCRX, the total withdrawal qty is 10032.00, which is correct.
    Why it didn't capture the qty withdrawn of 7610.00 for this BBatch?
    What should I do in order to get the correct result in MD04?
    Please kindly help.
    Many thanks in advance.

    Dear Dhaval & Prasobh,
    The actual scenario is that we have this Process order A01, for this packaging material component it required 10000, but the problem is the stock available is by batch:
    ABatch - 2372.00
    BBatch - 8000.00
    We are practicing FIFO, therefore, during MIGO> Goods Issue> Order, after enter the order A01, all the component under this order will be populated. Since there's only one line populated for this packaging material component under this order, as we need to have 2 batches in order to cater for all the 10000 qty, we have to right click>add new line in the MIGO screen, and enter the material/qty/batch and order number (under account assignment tab) manually, then only post at once (one material document generated)
    How should we do if this is not the correct way of doing?
    Or we need to post those planned GI, then only do another posting for those remaining qty that yet to be posted?
    Or we need to manually set the Final Issue everytime after the above done, before we TECO the process order?
    Dear Dhaval,
    Yes, I have checked in the List documented goods movement, the goods movement indicator for this manual entered line is "2".
    I will try your suggestion to manually activate the check box for "Fls"- Final Issue field in change process order.
    Thanks & Regards,
    Sue

  • How to get Correct curent time and date

    Hi,
    I would like to know whether system keeps updating SY-UZEIT each second or it contains the time value when the program was started.
    Suppose a program starts at 12:00:00 time and takes 10 sec to finish. Will I get same value of SY-UZEIT or will i get 12:00:10 as value of sy-uzeit just before completetion of program?
    If the time is not updated each second, how can I get the correct time?

    Hi surya,
    the SY-UZEIT will not be automaticly updated in the runtime.
    you have to use GET TIME.
    Here a short example to show the different:
    REPORT ZGRO_TEST.
    TABLES: MARA.
    write: / 'without get time'.
    WRITE: / SY-UZEIT.
    SELECT * FROM MARA up to 10000 rows.
    ENDSELECT.
    WRITE: / SY-UZEIT.
    write: / 'with get time'.
    get time.
    WRITE: / SY-UZEIT.
    SELECT * FROM MARA up to 10000 rows.
    ENDSELECT.
    get time.
    WRITE: / SY-UZEIT.
