Hi Alberto,

well a frame rate of 24Hz is perfectly reasonable for a TV and desktop usage.

This is probably caused by the TVs limited HDMI bandwidth and a refresh rate of 30/25 Hz for the interlaced mode isn't much better either.

Regards,
Christian.

The frame-rate at 24Hz is extremely poor for normal desktop usage.

If the highest resolution, aka 1080p, uses that refresh rate then the desktop will default to that frame-rate.

Other progressive modes don't exhibit any issue.

    Hi Alberto,

    I think the driver should only support resolutions that are
    *progressive*, but also at least of *50Hz*.

    Why do you think so?, the 24Hz resolution seems to be the native
    one of the display.

        Mhm, no idea why an interlaced resolution would cause a
        crash. Maybe some miscalculation in the display code.

        But apart from that if you just connected your PC to a TV I
        also wouldn't recommend using an interlaced resolution in the
        first place.

        See those resolutions only exists for backward compatibility
        with analog hardware.

        I think we would just disable those modes instead of
        searching for the bug.

        Christian.

        I guessed so.

        The GPU is a Radeon HD5870, and the screen is an old
        Telefunken TV (TLFK22LEDPVR1).

        Since my real display got into repair I used this TV
        meanwhile, and to my surprise it froze the system.

            Hi Alberto,

            well what hardware do you have?

            Interlaced resolutions are not used any more on modern
            hardware, so they
            are not well tested.

            Regards,
            Christian.
