Will the orginal mk3 rover sat nav computers show in the 16:9 aspect on a 16:9 monitor.

Hi
I've just today fitted a 16:9 and I have an MGR MK3 it still shows 4:3 unfortunately, plus I'm having I think issues with it, so I've not cut it up to fit it perminantly see my last posting in 16:9

If you fit a 16:9 into a 4:3 system it may go full screen for a while but the video tuner brings it into 4:3 after a while. You will have to change the video tuner for it to work properly, i know ive been this way before and had to fit a replacement tuner from fleebay.Go the whole hog and fit a mk4 computer the gains are greater.

yeah i have the monitor and 16:9 tuner ready to go, also have the mk4 computer but having some issues with it at the moment. so was just asking if it would work so that it is aleast usable whilst the mk4 is sorted.

Peter yes it will work
Resolution is a function of the TV tuner not the Nav Comp
