Oh, just normal plasma TVs. Ones that you could hook a DVD player
up to and watch widescreen movies. And DVDs are not encoded
at anything weird like 1024x768.
Don't pay any attention to the physical number of pixels the TV set
folks are advertising - they don't enter into the equation for what
the encoded frame size of the movie is. Remember DVDs are encoded at
720x480 and they play on widescreen TVs.
Just create a normal 16:9 DVD MPEG2 file and you'll be fine. The
video out from the computer might be the only thing you'll have to
experiment with (I've not done anything with video out so I do not
know the exact setup steps).
We've hooked a laptop up to one of the 42" plasma displays and played
16:9 DVDs without having to encode them at any difference resolution...
Cheers,
