your tv which is i assume bigger than 24 inches, actually displays a lower resolution than your dell ultrasharp. it is not the size of the display that matters, it is the resolution at which it is running at. if your computer monitor shows the 1080p clip running fine, your TV will as well.

my TV is connected to my video card as my secondary display. i just open up whatever HD content i have, drag it over to my second screen, and fullscreen it. of course my HD TV has a 5.1 setup with it, and i use AC3 filter (thanks skinnypupp), and an optical cable hooked from the SPDIF out to my reciever. works perfect.
