Screen Resolution and Aspect Ratio for HAVI.

Hi All,

I would like to know whether it's possible for each of Graphics,HVideoDevice and HBackgroundDevice to have a different value for Screen Resolution and Aspect Ratio.

When setGraphicsConfiguration() is called for a GraphicsDevice and ZERO_VIDEO_IMPACT property is given NOT_REQUIRED preference,is it mandatory to change the Screen Resolution and Aspect Ratio of the Video Device?If yes then the Graphics and Video device in such a case will have same values for Screen Resolution and Aspect Ratio.

Can someone please explain the correct behavior is such a case?

Regards

Pallavi

The various devices can have different resolutions, typically due to hardware capabilities. Some STB hardware platforms will have support different resulitions for the graphics planes and the video planes (usually to use lower resolution on the graphics plane than one the video plane, e.g. HD video and SD graphics). Different aspect ratios is less common, mostly because you gain less from being able to support this.

Given this, it's not mandatory to change the resolution of one device if you change the settings on anothe (like the situaiton you describe), but on some platforms this may happen because of hardware limitations.
