Nvidia modeline problem - TV accepts modeline from EDID but not from xorg.conf
#1
I switched off EDID mode because the first mode my AVR delivers is 720x480 and Nvidia autoselect then chooses this mode if AVR is switched on later then my box ... but there are some other reasons too.

I also tried to delete this mode from pool with xrandr --delmode and --rmmode but always get an "bad parameter match" which I guess is because the mode I want to delete is from EDID.

Problem is that my Sony TV connected to Yamaha RX 7 to Nvidia GT720 behaves differently if the modelines comes from xorg.conf and not from EDID.


Theese dont work from xorg but from EDID: 1080p59 (59,939) and 1080p60:
Modeline "1920x1080p59" 148.35 1920 2008 2052 2200 1080 1084 1089 1125 +Hsync +Vsync # 59.94 CEA Format : 16
Modeline "1920x1080p50" 148.50 1920 2448 2492 2640 1080 1084 1089 1125 +Hsync +Vsync # CEA Format : 31

If one looks into the xorg.log the EDID looks the same:
