LG Smart 3D TV gets almost no modes on RPi2
#1
I have a LG TV 65LM6200 which is 3D and has a number of 1920x1080 modes as the output of kodi-xrandr on a ION2 system running openelec 5.0.7 shows:

Code:

  </output>
</screen>

However on RPi 2 using openelec it defaults to 640x480 (yuk) and only three modes seem to be showing in tvservice:

Code:
rpi2:~ # tvservice -m cea
Group CEA has 2 modes:
           mode 4: 1280x720 @ 60Hz 16:9, clock:74MHz progressive
           mode 16: 1920x1080 @ 60Hz 16:9, clock:148MHz progressive
rpi2:~ # tvservice -m dmt
Group DMT has 1 modes:
  (prefer) mode 4: 640x480 @ 60Hz 4:3, clock:25MHz progressive

I have tried a couple of different HDMI ports and all behave the same. I suspect I need to add something to config.txt?

It seems to work flawlessly on my older 55LX6500.

Hmmmm
Code:
rpi2:~ # tvservice -n
[E] No device present
rpi2:~ # tvservice -d edid.bin
Nothing written!

I'll try a different cable.

OK another cable fixed it, without even a reboot. Sorry for the noise.
