I noticed with translucent Nav. and Not. bars, that when you set a portrait (or LS) wallpaper that it takes your 1920 x 1200 image and scrunches it to 1920 x 1080 (where you have a different image on each screen). I now crop my wallpaper images to 1920 x 1080 (or 2133 x 1200) to eliminate the squish.

Why are you making images 1920 x 1200 for the Nexus 5? The stock launcher is calling for an image 2160 x 1920 and with this size, it fits perfectly without stretching or scrunching.
When I take a screen shot it's 1080 x 1920. I am talking about a static portrait image, that's the screen size (even though specs say 1200 x 1920). I have different images on each screen without WP scrolling. Yes, 2160 x 1920 is for a scrolling wallpaper so you have image at left and right. I had no real question, I was just pointing it out. If you set a 1200 x 1920 image as wallpaper it will "squish" to 1080 x 1920 (if it's static, like some launchers let you do, and for lockscreen).
So what resolution is everyone looking for? 2160 x 1920 is uncommon. Anything that's 1920 in height is quite rare.
Most I've seen are 1600 in height but that feels like we're wasting clarity.

Where did you see 1200 x 1920? The specs say 1080 x 1920 for single screen.
Sorry, my error. Most of the images near the correct size were 1200. I was also thinking the aspect ratio was closer to 1200x1920 if top and bottom bars are not translucent.

Sorry for the stupid question but what is QVGA vs. VGA.
Which one is the TyTN?
Fanks.
It is the resolution
QVGA 320x240
VGA 640x480
tytn is qvga
Ah, thanks!
The "Q" is for "quarter" since QVGA screens have a quarter the amount of pixels as VGA screens do.
320 x 240 = 76,800 pixels
640 x 480 = 307,200 pixels
anyone know how to get rid of that black line on the tablet when u plug it in to the HDMI? and why is it even there?
What black line are you talking about exactly?

When I connect my hdmi to my tv there's an extra black line ontop of the bar on the bottom that does nothing atall
720p resolution is 1280 x 720.
The transformers screen it 1280 x 800, 80 pixels too much. Half of these 80 pixels is covered by the buttons, the rest is the black line.

ahhhhh i see thanks for answering that makes much sence. so even if you have a 1280x800 display , the transformer will only output 720 correct?

I think the chipset can do more than 1080p, but there is no way of changing the output resolution yet.
Ok, before you say anything, I know 1080 can't physically fit in a 720 resolution. The reason I ask is because my Vizio Blu-ray/Internet player automatically detects the display as 1920x1080 (the TV allows this, showing the resolution box in the corner and the picture being nice and crisp. It looks pixelated and letters are jagged in 720p).
My computer, however, only detects the TV in it's native resolution of 1360 x 768 (or was it 1366?). If my blu-ray player can pull it off, what is limiting my computer from doing the same? (The option to go to 1080 isn't available and a custom resolution in the Nvidia CP looks downright awful)
Most 720p TVs are also capable of 1080i (interlaced; 'p' stands for Progressive, and describes the way that every pixel is sent in every frame). 1080i is actually 540p x2, that is it's 540 lines (half of 1080) sent per frame, with the other half sent in the next frame. This works because 1080p is about twice the pixels of 720p, incidentlaly.
Depending on how you choose to look at this, that's either half the framerate, or half the resolution. Realistically, you should get better quality out of the 720p, even though it's being upsampled slightly; the 1080i is being downsampled quite aggressively so you lose most of the "1080" benefit, while the downsides of interlacing are still present.
I don't believe Windows supports interlaced display modes, only progressive. However, since Windows accurately detects the TV's true resolution of 1366x768 (which is slightly more than 720p, and is used because there are a lot of displays made that are 768 pixels tall), you will have neither upsampling nor downsamling; everything should be as crisp as the TV is capable of displaying, and at the native framerate.
Hello,
I'm trying to create a good preset in Handbrake for Videos to play on my Nexus 7. Can anyone tell me if I would get better results settings the picture size to 1920 (width) or 1280 (width)?
I know the N7 has a resolution 1920 x 1200 but I want to keep the file sizes reasonable whilst retaining decent HD quality?
I'm guessing that if I were to use 1280 x 720 the video would then be stretched to fill the screen thus making the reduced file size pretty redundnt?

I'm not really following you here.
The screen is 16:10, which means most stuff will run with small to medium sized black bars on the top and bottom of the screen while held in landscape. Old 4:3 AR stuff will have black bars at the sides.
If I personally were to make a trip where I wanted to take a lot of videos and didn't have a lot of storage capacity, I'd resize them to be 720p. Unless I were to output them to a TV later on. 1080p on that screen size, I can't really see the difference.
But my advice to you: try it out. Make some 1080p and 720p encodes and then have someone start a video and you have to try and guess if it is 1080p or 720p. If you guess right 50% of the time, do 720p.
I do all my videos at 720p with Handbrake and they look great on the N7. There is a lot of information out there about encoding settings. It comes down to personal preference and the amount of time you're willing to spend encoding videos.
I do most of my conversions at 720p with handbrake. The settings I change are: 1280 width loose / h.264 .mp4, check large file size if input is > 5GB / 18fps/ aac faacp & ac3 passthru (no need for the two audio tracks unless you use an Apple TV which will only use the 1st track)

On a screen this size you will be fine with 720. I have a 1080p projector and an 84" screen and I only notice a big difference with animated movies such as pixars or DreamWorks in 720 vs 1080.

Agreed. Even on my 40" LCD TV, 720p is plenty. So it is certainly enough for a tablet.
The extra resolution on these things is more useful for text based applications IMO. Video is fine at 720p.
Hello guys, is there a way to improve camera quality, like changing the bitrate and other things ? There are some ROMs that claim that ''picture and video quaity is improved'' good but how can i do that on a Stock Rooted ROM? Specially by bumping slow motion video quality from 360p to at least 480p or even 720p. Note 3 got a very good S800 processor who can record 4K30 and even 1080p60 so why it cannot record 720p120?
I'm not sure if it works that way because it also vary bitrate but based only on pixels per second
4K resolution is 3840 × 2160 pixels = 8.294.400 pixels x 30 frames = 248.832.000 pixels per second!
1080p resolution is 1920 x 1080 pixels = 2.073.600 pixels x 60 frames = 124.416.000 pixels per second!
720p resolution is 1280 x 720 pixels = 921.600 x 120 frames per second = 110.592.000 pixels per second!
well i won't even say about 360p. (remember that 8x slow motion is recorded on 360p)
So based on this, we can clearly see that the sensor itself is doing half the job on slow motion mode that it can do on 4K.
Anyway, can we actually change the resolution recorded on Slow motion mode ? is that on the camera APK? or where? can someone tell?
