So I'd like to add a resolution through the detailed resolution in extension block I want to be 1920x1080 @ 75Hz and I want it to default to YcCbCr422 Color format on apply and properly support HDR. So then when I want to play games at 1080/120 with HDR working correctly then I don't have to play with the color format everytime I change resolutions to make it work and painlessly switch back to RGB 4K60. So just wondering how I would do this and what settings to use in CRU?Color formats are not per-resolution. The setting is up to the graphics driver. |

RE: Custom Resolution Utility (CRU)
Hello ToastyX,
First of all, a Huge thank you for creating CRU. I have read this forum a-lot, and was able to create a custom resolution for my 4K TV with lower resolution height (ultra wide) that in itself greatly improved gaming FPS and immersion. But now for the past two weeks, I have been trying everything I can think of to allow multi channel audio from PC (currently only stereo is available). My setup is as follows: Windows 11 PC with Asus Tuf Gaming RTX 3070 TI video card TV Samsung Q95T, one connect box AVR Yamaha RX-A830 Connection is: RTX3070ti -> HDMI to TV HDMI slot 4 (gaming input) TV HDMI 3 (ARC) to AVR Limitations: I know that the TV can support most audio codecs, but not the old DTS formats I know that the HDMI connections in Yamaha are the older v1.4 so they only support ARC (and not eARC) -> limiting the lossless channels to 2, but dolby digital 5.1 should work Successfull tests: From any other source than PC, the 5.1 audio is transmitted to AVR (via this same ARC HDMI connection) From PC, when selecting Dolby "Atmos for home theater" spatial audio, 5.1 audio is transmitted to AVR, but there is too big lag in this setting to be useful in gaming Problem is, that I have been able to set Windows to "see" my Samsung TV as capable of receiving multi-channel audio, and it seems to try to send it, but AVR receives only 2.0 audio. I have tried different settings on the tv, and on the extension blocks. What I currently have and what gets me "closest" to the end is attached as the CRU settings, and the windows settings. This leads Windows seeing the channels, and trying to output sound (animation is there), but AVR only receives 2.0 audio. Sorry for the lengthy post, but for sure, I am getting desperate on how this does not work, since it does for other sources, and it does for this workaround with spatial Atmos. If you can, please help me, I will run any additional tests needed. |

RE: Custom Resolution Utility (CRU)
Hello!,
I've been reading in these forums and reddit about solving screen brightness flickering because of VRR, so all i want to do is to change the Variable Refresh Rate range but i can't figure out how to do it. I have an Odyssey G9 OLED that i'm always using at 5120x1440 at 240hz. I thought all i had to do is press the "edit" button and change the V value but the values are empty, or they have lower hertz values than my current refresh rate in use, and my monitor is also displayed many times in the dropdown menu. So basically, if i press Edit on my active monitor i don't know what to write down in the V-rate, H-rate and Max pixel clock values because they're empty and i don't know how to know the proper values for those. I wanted to try something like 120-240hz as my VRR range. I attached pictures of the "6 odyssey monitors" that i have there and their properties. Thank you so much in advance to anybody who could help me! |

I came to the conclusion that the provided DP cable from Samsung was faulty after watching a LTT video where they hooked various cables to a test to verify performance and the only cable to fail were Samsung oem cables. So I took a bet and got a Monoprice 8k DP 2.0 cable and my flicker issues went away. Another thing to mention, if you're getting black screen flashes in game (especially valve's source engine games) its because for some reason the frame rate is dropping to low for the VRR to function properly. in those games I just set the "Monitor Technology" setting to fixed refresh in nvidia 3d setting for that application and problem solved. heres the cable i got if you want to check it out https://www.monoprice.com/product?p_id=42992 |

Happens on all three resolutions I have tried, including the 3840x2160. Currently the resolution I am using is 3840x1500, 120hz, HDR. This issue has brought me to the point where I am considering if my AVR bought in 2015 (while being a rather capable at that time) should be upgraded. Therefore I do not know if all of these issues could be resolved by replacing the AVR with one that can do eARC. I have not yet discovered how to tell what signal is actually sent with these EDID changes to TV (Windows looks as if it could be sending LPCM 5.1, but the TV refuses to send it to AVR)... |

RE: Custom Resolution Utility (CRU)
Hi ToastyX, thank you so much for continuing to support this tool and answer questions. You helped me once before a few years back and I'm hoping you could help me again.
I recently upgraded to a 7900XTX to run my 144Hz 4k display, and in an attempt to lower the idle power draw, I increased the Extension Block's Vertical Blanking to the point where it allowed my GPU's VRAM to downclock, solving my power draw issue. Unfortunately, ever since I did that a few days ago, I have noticed that the display will very occasionally flicker with what seems to be a white screen (or at least a different color that is noticeable). Its not consistent, maybe only once every few minutes depending on what im doing and it seems to only happen for like a frame or so, so I've been unable to capture it. The only consistent pattern is that it generally seems to happen when there is GPU activity, like when im scrolling through a page in Chrome with Hardware Acceleration enabled, or when I close a window. It even happened once or twice while I was typing this post. It doesnt happen every time, but those are the times I have noticed it. I was wondering if you might be able to suggest any reasons for this to be happening or changes to my timings that might resolve this. According to the data-sheet for my monitor's panel that I found online, I SHOULD still be well within the monitor's specifications and I am confused at why this behavior might be occurring. My setup: 7900XTX 3 Displays:
Here are stock timings for my 4k Display: Here are my modified timings for my 4k Display with increase vertical blanking: Here are my 1080p Display's timings (in case its relevant): And here is the timing data sheet for my 4k panel: Thank you again for all the help! Your amazing! |
