720P output to LCD TV with VGA?

[gurkburk]

First I must say thanks for a very good application. :)

But the problem is that I have an Projector that only supports 720P (1280x720) and my LCD TV supports 1360x768. I use an DVI to HDMI cable to the projector and VGA to the TV, the problem is that I would like send out 720P to the TV with vga. Is there anyway to do this? The TV supports it but I guess it's because the VGA cable.

I don't have the option to buy an 10m VGA cable to the projector.

Any suggestions? Last exit is to buy an DVI or HDMI splitter, but I rather don't right now (small wallet).

I think this somehow ties in with my problem, running the Live version, with being unable to display 1366x768 resolution, although it's the native res of my plasma and I am able to configure it as a custom resolution (Nvidia 8800GT) under Windows, in the control panel.

Are there similar functions under Linux (custom resolutions)?

Why don't you put the TV at 1280*720 aswell (same res as 720p)?
Don't think that the vga cable as anything to do with that.

Yes, that is the thing I'm trying to do. The TV supports 720P but not as resolution from an analog source. With HDMI to my projector I can set output 720P. I can also set 720P to my TV from my DVD and my Popcorn Hour but I think this have to do with that I'm using a VGA cable, and if there is someway to override this :)
