radeon 8500 question

[profjo00]

i have a radeon 8500 retail, when i plug in the s-video cable in to the tv and the radeon it everythings looks good, as its supposed to be i guess. but when I play a movie, on my computer monitor it shows but not on my TV. this makes me mad, i want to watc hthe movie on both screens, and today i will receive my flatscreen so i want to watch the movie on all 3 monitors at the same time. is that possible, or is the card not able to do that. i know i can connect all 3 displays at the same time and use windows. the second question i have is does the tv have to have the same resolution as the monitor, because when i use the TV at 1280 1024, the screen is just partialy so i have to scroll from side to side. please help me out

i press some buttons and now the movie is on both screens, but i cant figure out how to have 2 different resolutios, or is that maybe not possible

Hydravision I believe has settings for adjusting the resolution on different monitors to different settings.

I don't believe you can have more than 2 different video outs though.

I do not like it Tom you see,
I do not like green PCB.

I think the maximum resolution for Tv's is 800X600. Am I right guys?

No, it's 640x480

maximum Res with original Radeon is 800x600
with my Radeon 8500 I can do 1024x768 Tv out using the S-video cable!
