I >normally use LCD's, but I kinda want a "larger" picture on this one ;) I assume you are trying to do this from a PIC, in which case you need to chase up the Pong game someone did. Thought I had a link, but don't. If you are wanting to do it from a video card, then 800x600 resolution is extremely close to both US and European TV rates. -- http://www.piclist.com hint: The PICList is archived three different ways.
