I use an hdmi to vga converter to connect my apple tv 3 to my projector which only has an xga 1024 x 768 resolution, I used apple tv 2 before, it was alright, but with apple tv 3, I got d-sub out of range error and the projector cannot display.
I think the converter converts 1080p to a higher resolution, in order to keep using my projector, I have to change the apple tv output to the same as apple tv 2, which is 720p.
Apple TV, iOS 5.0.1

Change the Apple TV resolution by pressing and holding the Menu and Up button for six seconds. The Apple TV will automatically cycle to the next resolution at approximately 20 second intervals. Pressing the Selectbutton will immediately cycle to the next resolution.
