Save for a few details, e.g. when playing video, the controls (next, pause, etc) are only shown on the N900. Otherwise full clone.

Oh and it's a bit compressed to get it to fit into PAL/NTSC 4:3. Looks good though. Readable.

PAL or NTSC. That is, 702x576 or 702x480, in theory. Didn't count.

Standards are a bit ... iffy? In theory, NTSC has 486 raster, but it depends on implementation.

I doubt you get more than the 480 the N900 has natively vertical, and I also doubt you get more than 702 lines as per implementation.

Since it's a TV it's probably limited to 720 for DVD large or 702, so no more than that.

The overall feel is high quality DVD. Except N900 uses better compression algos, so it looks better. Don't get more pixels though.
