We connected a 1080p TV instead of his old monitor to my brother's pc.

The resolution keeps at 1366x768.

Whenever I try to put it at 1920x1080 it says "unsupported video format".

:confused:

Video card or a program that is set to that format. I had a similar issue when I had output set to 720p and receiver set to 720 with a 720 TV and it still said that. Turns out I was using XBMC to stream video and it was set to 1080

And you're sure it supports 1080p? Because some models of that one is 720p.

It's 1080p.
Unless dad got screwed and they put a 720p tv in the box of a 1080p one when he bought it 2 or 3 years ago......

What does it say the model number is on the back of the TV? It doesn't hurt to just verify that it is indeed 1080p.

Lots of 1080p TVs can only accept 1366x768 input on their VGA port. If it is a 1080p display, you might need to use a HDMI input for that resolution.

You're encroching on the limits of VGA. Typically VGA should be able to handle 1920x1200 @ 60Hz. How long is the cable, because it could be too much bandwidth and the signal could become distorted by the time it gets to the display. Is HDMI or DVI an option?

Lots of 1080p TVs can only accept 1366x768 input on their VGA port. If it is a 1080p display, you might need to use a HDMI input for that resolution.

I've yet to see this on a display that really does 1080p, not to say it doesn't exist. I agree though, HDMI or DVI is the way to go.

Without being exactly sure what model you have, the 1080p (Model 32RV530U) version uses an SXGA 15-pin sub-D analog port. SXGA doesn't do 1080. Even if it's SXGA+, it will only handle 1400x1050.

Disclaimer : Still on first cup of coffee.

She is limited to SXGA 1280 x 1024 on the pc in.

The error message is normal if she tries to run a resolution out of spec or at the wrong frequencies.

Info from Regza Manual

If she is using the PC input, it accepts these resolutions:

If she uses HDMI, it accepts the resolutions:

AHHH looks like viper hit the nail on the head here! If the PC has DVI you will need either a DVI to HDMI cable or a adapter like the ones that come with some graphics cards. If you need one let me know I can see what I can do with shipping it to malta for u ;)

Yeah, it looks like it's displaying in WXGA since she said it would do 1360x768.
That's the best you're gonna get with that config, BP.
