Default Setting up screen resolution on HTPC - how to play HD video?

I just brought home a 50" plasma and hooked it up to my PC (GeForce 9800GT) via HDMI. When I turned on the TV, the resolution was set automatically to 1366x768. This looks good for operating the computer comfortably, but it's not HD, correct?

When I upped the resolution to 1920x1080 on the PC, it made the desktop fuzzy and too big to fit on the screen - it didn't look good.

What do I do so that it plays video in HD?

What model TV?

1366x768 is technically HD. 720p is 1280x720, and 1366x768 is greater than that.
