    MP 1,1-5,1 Resolution oddness with flashed 7950

    I recently dropped a flashed PC Sapphire HD 7950 3GB into my cMP5,1. Oddly, it will only drive my Samsung 4K display at 1080p when running Mojave. However, if I reboot into Windows 10, it has no problem operating at 2560x1440. I found that if I used ResXtreme, I could force the monitor to work...

    Crispy screen resolution

    When one changes the screen resolution in a retina iMac, will all resolutions look as crispy as the standard? On my mid 2010 iMac, which isn’t retina, only one resolution will look as crispy!

    Choosing an iMovie aspect ratio and size

    I'm importing old 640x480 (4:3) videos into iMovie (10.1.14). When I place these files into the Timeline, the Project window is 16:9 (cutting off top and bottom of videos) and the finalized project is saved at 1280x720. How can I set the project aspect ratio (in this case we need 4:3), or the...

    solved: LG 32UL950 wrong size reported (dpi / edid)

    Solved - just as a side note: When attaching a 31.5" LG 32UL950 to a Mac, the reported screen size is 27". While this does not affect the resolution, it affects the actual screen size of items scaled to "100%" in graphic applications, such as Acrobat Reader, Indesign etc. A nightmare when...
