The SSD failed and an unusual issue arose.
Before the SSD failed, I could show 1920x1200 at 16:10. For months it worked well and became my standard. Now that it’s gone, I had to clear everything on my media drive and install Windows again. After reinstalling, the highest resolution I can display is now 1920x1080 at 16:9. It looks quite poor. Anyone know why this change happened? I’m not sure which section this should fit into—it seemed like my usual setting.
It mentions a television? TVs typically don’t feature 1920x1200 screens. I’m not sure how you could achieve that before. Usually, the issue with 1080p on a TV is that its actual resolution isn’t 1080p—it’s just labeled as such. I’ve rarely seen a TV with a genuine 1920x1080 display.
It seems the screen displayed at 1920x1200 might have been a width adjustment only.
TVs have consistently been 1080p, with a recent shift toward 4K only because extra vertical lines aren’t needed. Another factor is that most TV content is limited to 1080p formats, like Blu-Ray releases, so upgrading wouldn’t really help and would just add black bars at the edges. On monitors, things are different since PC media can vary widely in resolution—ranging from photo editing to games that work at any size. TVs don’t require 1200p, which is why I’ve never seen one and it seems uncommon to encounter them.
