A friend is asking me how to make YDL fullscreen on an SDTV

I know to add 3+128 = 131 for HDTV but what number do I add for a SDTV?

From man ps3-video-mode

    60 Hz Full Screen Broadcast Modes:
    129: 480if (720 x 480)
    130: 480pf (720 x 480)

    50 Hz Full Screen Broadcast Modes:
    134: 576if (720 x 576)
    135: 576pf (720 x 576)

However, if you run a full screen mode on SDTV then you're probably going to run into overscan issues (portions of the screen won't be visible). This can be dealt with using a tool called fbset.

Here's a post regarding that (on YDL 6.2 a kernel update is not necessary for this):
