Normal mode frames the 4:3 video to the 16:9 picture area by displaying it in its original aspect ratio, with vertical gray or black bars on both sides of the screen. The disadvantage of this method is the fact that the image is small by virtue of not using the entire width of the screen. This is also known as the 4:3 mode.
The 1280 × 1024 resolution is not the standard 4:3 aspect ratio, instead it is a 5:4 aspect ratio (1.25:1 instead of 1. 3:1). A standard 4:3 monitor using this resolution will have rectangular rather than square pixels, meaning that unless the software compensates for this the picture will be distorted, causing circles to appear elliptical.
The high-resolution mode introduced by 8514/A became a de facto general standard in a succession of computing and digital-media fields for more than two decades, arguably more so than SVGA, with successive IBM and clone videocards and CRT monitors (a multisync monitor's grade being broadly determinable by whether it could display 1024×768 at ...
Early 1440p computer displays became commonly available in 2010. Dell's UltraSharp U2711 monitor was released in 2010 as WQHD, with a 1440p widescreen. [1] The 27-inch Apple LED Cinema Display released in 2010 also had a native resolution of 2560 × 1440, as did the Apple Thunderbolt Display which was sold from July 2011 to June 2016.
Coordinated Video Timings (CVT; VESA-2013-3 v1.2 [1]) is a standard by VESA which defines the timings of the component video signal.Initially intended for use by computer monitors and video cards, the standard made its way into consumer televisions.
2K resolution is a generic term for display devices or content having a horizontal resolution of approximately 2,000 pixels. [1] In the movie projection industry, Digital Cinema Initiatives is the dominant standard for 2K output and defines a 2K format with a resolution of 2048 × 1080.
3:2 displays first appeared in laptop computers in 2001 with the PowerBook G4 line, [17] but did not enter the mainstream until the 2010s with the Chromebook Pixel [18] [19] and 2-in-1 PCs like Microsoft's Surface line. [6] As of 2018, a number of manufacturers are either producing or planning to produce portable PCs with 3:2 displays. [20] [21]
USB type-C chipsets are not required to include Dual-mode, so passive DP-HDMI adapters do not work with type-C sources. A specification for "HDMI Alternate Mode for USB type-C" was released in 2016, but was discontinued in 2023, with HDMI Licensing Administration stating they knew of no adapter having ever been produced.
