No it doesn't.

74.25MHz/1.001 * 4096 / (128 * 32000) = 74175 (rounded down)

Now do the calcuation.

(74.25MHz/1.001) / 74175 * 4096 = 4096045.511 => 32000.35556Hz
	=> error of 0.001111%

Now for the calcuation using the proscribed figures.

(74.25MHz/1.001) / 210937 * 11648 = 4096009.709 => 32000.07585Hz
	=> error of 0.000237%

That's significantly less error using that than your "better" idea.
Now, if we take the pixel clock rate as 74.175MHz, which is just a
representation of 74.25MHz/1.001:

74.175MHz / 210937 * 11648 = 4095964.198 => 31999.72029Hz
	=> error of 0.0008741%

That's still lower than your "better" idea.

And as I've already said, the pixel clock rate given to us here will
be the _specified_ clock rate of 74.175MHz, *not* some cocked up
platform screwed crap that you think we will.  It _will_ be 74175
not 74170 or some other shite like that.

Right, I've had enough.  I'm going to be ignoring this thread from now
on, this is a waste of my time - you clearly have no understanding of
what's going on here.
