[PROBLEM] cannot use 1080p resolution on my display, only 1080i

[rikardo1979]

you need to force the resolution,and you can do it by adding the lines to your config.txt file on FAT partition of your SD card, so you can even do it on windoze if you are not comfy with SSH.
so add the following lines

Code:

hdmi_drive=2

Code:

hdmi_group=1

Code:

hdmi_mode=16

More details can be found at RPi Config

Also please let me know the exact model of your TV so I can check technical specs of it
-thx-
