Re: Sacred Geometry 1080p Or 1080i
Nahuel Anschutz
I have an HDMI -> MiniDisplayPort cable from Amazon that I've connected. In both closed clamshell mode and extension mode, a tiny bit of the screen on all four sides is cut off from the monitor -- the entire top menu bar is cut off, and a bit of the bottom dock is cut off. The settings in Display Preferences is 1080p. I've tried holding alt, and I do not see any listing for 1920x1080 -- I only see 1080i, and lower resolutions, none of which fix the problem of the menu bars being cut off. Could it be the HDMI -> MiniDisplayPort Cable? I've ordered a Male VGA -> MiniDisplayPort and will try that, but in the meantime, does anyone have any other ideas?
Standard-definition television or SDTV refers to two different resolutions: 576i, with 576 interlaced lines of resolution, derived from the European-developed PAL and SECAM systems; and 480i based on the American National Television System Committee NTSC system. SDTV is a television system that uses a resolution that is not considered to be either high-definition television (720p, 1080i, 1080p, 1440p, 4K UHDTV, and 8K UHD) or enhanced-definition television (EDTV 480p). In North America, digital SDTV is broadcast in the same 4:3 aspect ratio as NTSC signals with widescreen content being center cut.[207] However, in other parts of the world that used the PAL or SECAM color systems, standard-definition television is now usually shown with a 16:9 aspect ratio, with the transition occurring between the mid-1990s and mid-2000s. Older programs with a 4:3 aspect ratio are shown in the United States as 4:3 with non-ATSC countries preferring to reduce the horizontal resolution by anamorphically scaling a pillarboxed image.
Harkening back to Spielberg's desire to film a James Bond film, Temple of Doom starts out with an elaborately staged pre-credits sequence with Jones facing impending death by poisoning at a night club, a plane crash and a cruise down the rapids into a Malaysian village. Serendipity has dictated that Jones is now joined by nightclub performer Willie Scott (Kate Capshaw), making their way to the nearby impoverished village of Mayapore, where the local children have vanished and the sacred stones of Shiva have been stolen. While the lavish Pankot Palace welcomes Jones with open arms, he quickly becomes suspicious of their motives, confirmed by a series of secret underground tunnels leading to an ancient religious cult.
