So I have a Gateway P6831FX, and I installed a Blu-ray drive in it. It works great, and I love watching my Blu-ray movies on it! I bought an HDMI Cable, so that I could connect it to my 32" HDTV, so that I could watch the movies on there, but when I do that, it doesn't setup at the right resolution. I've tried looking on how to add a custom resolution, but I didn't have any luck. My TV has a resolution of 1366x768 at the most, but the only res closest to that is like 1200x720 or something like that. So is there a way I can change this? My TV is by Vizio if that helps any.

actually if you can run your tv which i know you can at 1920x1080i as in interlaced youll want to watch the movies at that rez not the native rez of your tv . Blu rays run at both 1080p and i so try and make a custom rez for that and see what happens . before i got both my 1080 ps i used to have a 42 inch lcd that ran at the same res as yours 1366x768 and when i played movies through my ps3 they looked amazing at 1080i and pretty exactly like they do at 1080p on my desktop 42inch monitor.

Is there a program that I can use to setup the custom resolution? Cause I know that the default settings doesn't have anything, and the nVidia Control Panel doesn't either.

editing the nvidia .inf files might do that.
look at this para :
HKR,, NV_Modes, %REG_MULTI_SZ%, "{*}S 1400x1050x32 1600x1024x32 1600x1200x32 1920x1200 1920x1440 2048x1536=1F;1400x1050x8,16 1600x1024x8,16 1600x1200x8,16=3F;640x480 800x600 1024x768 1152x864 1280x768 1280x800 1280x960 1280x1024 1360x768=7F;{405-42E,609-845}S 1920x1200x64 1920x1440x64 2048x1536x64=1F;1600x1200x32=20;1280x768 1280x800 1280x960x32 1280x1024x32 1360x768=380;1600x1200x64=3F;1280x768x64 1280x800x64 1280x960x64 1280x1024x64 1360x768x64=3FF;1152x864x32=780;640x480x64 800x600x64=7F;"
HKR,, NV_Modes, %REG_SZ_APPEND%, "1152x864x64=7FF;1024x768x32=F80;1024x768x64=FFF;"
actually it includes 1360x768 which very similar to what you ask.
this is from the l2g 177.66 modded .infs
i haven't played with those res. before. -

Look at TV manual and look the supported resolutions via HDMI cause if it doesn't support you can do nothing.
I can remember the first time that i connected TV it automatically set the native TV resolution( no need to adjust anything accept color, contrast and stuff like that).
I have a Sony KDL-32U3000 and i can set it at native restitution 1360x768.
it looks great.
I'm using 177.66 rivers with modded INF -
I uploaded my modded inf.
Try and use it it may work and post what TV do you have.
Maybe you know how to work with modded infs.
i must go now i wont me back in 3 hours if you have something mail me or post it here .Attached Files:
