Capable computers should be able to read/acquire the HDTV data and blend it into the desktop graphics. In this case, the projector displays the image at the standard 4:3 aspect ratio, just as it would any other computer graphics mode. The largest display mode available using the DVI interface is 1280 x 1024 at 75 Hz. The largest display mode available using the VGA interface is 1280 x 1024 at 75 Hz. When displaying HDTV content in a window as part of your desktop environment, it is recommended to project it in the computer's native 4:3 mode since the computer has already embedded the HDTV video stream in widescreen format within the window. To do so, you may need to select the Fill to Screen mode on your projector to preserve the height-to-width relationship of the material. Regardless of the source, the HDTV formats are generally of higher resolution than that of the projector (XGA, or 1024 x 768). Therefore, the projector will normally downscale the HDTV data to fit the complete image within the displayable 1024 x 768 resolution.
