I do not have an ATI 6970 but I do have a ATI 6850.I have an HDMI cable going to my Sony TV as well as my monitor.I had to set it up in the CCC under desktop management.CCC and driver version 11.3.

There is a setting in the CCC to enable that feature but I don't use that with my 6970

cheers guys got it working now, and i have to say im very disappointed with the quality of ati hdmi
Plus It only lists 1920x1080 and not 1920x1080p as my highest screen res:confused:

'

The p in 1080p doesn't apply to PC resolutions its all the same 1080 pixel height.

Please ellaborate as this is how I plan on flying (HD6950 => HDMI => Sony LCD 40'').

My decktop colors are all wrong, I also cant find no desktop color settings
my Samsung syncmaster monitor, settings make no difference what so ever
I think i will go back to Dvi cable it looks so much better

TV resolution is based on lines of resolution.. PC screens has vastly higher levels of resolution based per pixel. Most images will not scale up that well..

I think its just the ati card, i dont think there as good as nvidia, i mean look at the sky in this shot
its not zoomed in, this is what i see every time i look up

Im thinking of getting rid of this card, even though its only a few days old
for a nvidia card, because im just not happy with it

The 'P' means progressive scan, as apposed to interlaced which is found in older TVs. Any image from your PC will be progressive so don't worry about not seeing the 'P'. The pixelated sky is a strange one though.
