Stupid Beginner Question: What Linux Desktop Environment works well or has an output mode for NTSC/PAL resolution? ( kbin.social )

Yes I am thinking of using my little TV (composite AV input only (from an HDMI-to-composite dongle)) as my second display. Going command line-only would be ok if I don't have a choice, but then I watch miniDV and VCD footages sometimes. My Mint machine was broken so i didn't have a chance to test that. So not sure if it could go lower than VGA or if I am asking the right question.

Xfce is probably the simplest option. It can do most anything without much effort. I'd suspect with a little effort you could do it.

The dsektop environment really doesn't have anything to do with it. That's up to the video drivers and display server, be it X11 or Wayland. I haven't any idea which desktop might offer you the best tools for configuring those things though. Just as a rough guess, I'd guess KDE Plasma, perhaps XFCE?
