Connecting Macbook Pro to Sony TV, Maximum Output 576p??

[admin_exported]

Hi guys!

I'm having a bit of trouble trying to get my new Macbook Pro to connect to my Sony KDL-26V4500 telly.

I am running Mac OS X 10.6.1 Snow Leopard, connecting using a Mini Displayport to HDMI adapter and a 5M That Cable HDMI cable.

I have tried all the resolutions, with overscan off & on, and 50hz & 60hz. The highest resolution I can get a picture with is 576p!

Previously on my old Macbook Pro, by using HDMI to DVI I could get 720p/1080i on the Sony.

I'd appreciate any help!

Cheers

Have you tried adjusting your MacBook Pro's Display settings in System Preferences?

Yeah, I've tried every resolution and different option there, highest res I can get on the Sony is 576p and below.

Just to let everybody know: the cable was actually faulty. I emailed ThatCable and got a speedy response along with a new cable shipped out. Everything is now working excellently and I applaud ThatCable on their top customer service.
