Okay guys, I've hooked my parent's computer to a 32" samsung with a resolution of 1366x768, but I can't set it to that resolution in the Catalyst Control Center. Is there any way to make a custom resolution?

Also, I have the computer hooked up to a 17" lcd monitor (1280x1024), if that matters at all.
Another issue I'm having is that when the HDTV is on extended desktop, i can drag a movie that's playing fine, but once I maximize it, it goes back to the 17" monitor. So how can I make it so that when it maximizes, it stays on the screen where the window is at?

Does anyone have answers for me? :D Thanks.

P.S. Any other suggestions about the best way to approach this lcd + hdtv setup would be great as well, thanks a lot.

Forgot to say, the computer is using an ATI HD 3200 integrated graphics.
 
I'm not sure about your resolution selecting issue, but I can answer you about the movie jumping issue, though. The player that you're using will max itself on the primary display. You either set the settings in the player to max on secondary screen(if such settings exists) or you will have to make the HDTV the primary display to get the max video on it.

Oh okay, I figured that was the case.
 
Get ultramon. It should let you choose which screen to maximize too (even if its not primary) and fix the resolution as well.

I don't think it works that way with things like video maximizing, which function differently than hitting the maximize button at the top of a window.

OP could always use a different media player as an easy solution for the maximization issues without screwing around with primary display settings. Mediaplayer Classic is always a good thing.

VLC lets you maximize without entering full screen mode very nicely, that might be a solution.
