My projector bulb is just about dead and i'm a few weeks away from getting a new projector. I was thinking about picking up a 22 inch PC monitor to use until in the meantime.
I was looking at a benq or acer 22 inch widescreen with a HDCP DVI input and a max resolution of 1680 x 1050.
What's the list of supported resolution options tell you for the Tosh Hd player?
What's the resolution options for the 22" monitor. You will need a direct match.
You may need to get something that's 1920x1080.
The tosh can do 480i/p, 576i/p, 720p and 1080i/p. The specs are a bit vauge on the monitor, it doesn't last what signals are accepted. I'm guessing it should work on 720p.
Yes, it should work fine, but you need to be aware that the monitor is going to be a 16:10 ratio, where as most projectors are 16:9, and that there will be larger black bars on top/bottom.
I just got the cheapest one I could find on ebay (benq). I haven't had a chance to connect it up yet, I'll probably pick up a new projector early next week so the monitor might end up on the computer desk sooner than expected.
Thanks for the help everyone.
Actually I use a 26" 720p LCD HDTV as my primary computer monitor. The prices are started to get to the point where it's almost cheaper to buy an HDTV than a large widescreen computer monitor.
