Mini to a Philips W/S, HD tv with dvi to hdmi

Question

ok, so i finally got the display to gome up regularly, i just bought a 30 in, wide screen philips hd with a hdmi hookup in the back. i got a dvi to hdmi cord with it, and i got the diplay to show up fine in 720x480 rez, but the whole point of the new screen was so i could run imovie hd. i had my mini hooked up to an old monitor that i used the adaptor for. the only other rez higher is 1920x1080, and i think i need 1080x720, or whatever the minimum rez for imovie is. when i run the 1920 rez, everything is on screen (as long as overscan is off, took me a while to figure that out) but very very small and it donsen't seem right. i can at least use it on the new monitor, but i still cant run imovie because i cant read a **** thing. any help would be much appreciated. pleaze? anyone? i hope i can find out before it's too late to return this thing...
