why cant frontend be in 800x600

hey i was just wondering why cant you creators create a front end that will work on 800x600 and not just 800x480. the reason so is because i cant fricking get my dumb mac to display 800x480 on the lilliput 619 older version lcd. i purchase a refurbish mac 10.4x and couldnt get 800x480 to work on it so i went and bought the a new 10.5x version mac thinking that this will solve the problem but it doesnt. by the way i use displayconfigx and i bought the software too but it doesnt work. i try every method possible that this forum have stated but doesnt solve anything. but back to the original question, is there a reason why amp, neonbox, etc. uses 800x480 and not the original 800x600. can anybody make it to work on 800x600. that be awesom. it be more awesom if someone can help me get 800x480 to work on my mac. i have the older version lilliput 619. all the monitors i seen this people uses on the forum is eb701 or the newer version 619(not the 629, i know the differences between 619, 629)

ahhhh super awesom.... guessing i will be using nbb then. hey how come music video doesnt play in nbb. it will just show the pcture of it and looks like it is playing but dont hear anything. do i have to add quickplayer to nbb??

i think we should keep discussion regarding NBB in the NeonBoomBox forum. But to answer your question the music module in NBB isn't programed to play video. we feel like that should be a function of the video module.

to discuss it farther please post in a thread in the NBB forum.

CarFrontEnd is designed for 800x480, but it adjusts itself for 800x600 (what I actually run my display as too) just fine.
