Abstract
A system provides automatic mode detection and scaler control in a display device which is digitally coupled to a display controller. The display controller has a variable active horizontal resolution and a variable active vertical resolution, while the display device has a fixed display device horizonal resolution and a fixed display device vertical resolution. The system determines the variable active horizontal and the vertical resolutions of the display controller; and scales the output of the display controller to the fixed horizontal resolution and vertical resolution of the display device.
