Developping on a laptop

Hello,

I am wondering if it would be ok to develop on a laptop with a resolution of 1366x768 with an HDMI out plugged to the rift.

I know the rift screen is 1280x800 so would the graphic card (Radeon HD 8750M) display to that resolution or would it be stretched to go from 768 to 800 or just adding black to the bottom ?

Anyone working with a laptop at that resolution ?

    If you want to run duplicate screens, maybe its better to run both screens at native Oculus resolution, while the oculus is plugged in.

    That's the resolution I have on my laptop. I doubt you'll be able to get dual displays with a 1280x800 resolution since your laptop screen can't do it, but the Rift seems to do just fine with 1280x720 scaling. Good enough for mobile development.
