Dell 2407FPW. Xbox360. 1080p.

Can it do 1080p with 1:1 pixel ratio with the VGA cable? Basically I want small black bars on the top and bottom. I've gotten so many differing accounts.

    actually, you can run 1080p through VGA...Microsoft added support for it in the October 31 update:

    The Enigmatic,

    If you connect the Xbox 360 through VGA, you should see the following in the Dashboard System menu- Console Settings:
    640 x 480
    848 x 480
    1024 x 768
    1280 x 720 (equivalent to 720p)
    1280 x 768
    1280 x 1024
    1360 x 768
    1920 x 1080 (equivalent to 1080p)

    It says "HD 1080p video mode support over VGA and component cables."
    So Can 2407fpw do 1080p over the component cable? and if it doesn't Why not?

    My question is if it would stretch the 1080 pixels into 1200.

    From my understanding, yes it does stretch it to 1200 height. You would need the 360 to output a 1920x1200 signal with black bars above and below the 1920x1080 signal in order to maintain the proper aspect ratio.
