Custom Resolution Utility (CRU)

Detailed resolutions are exactly the same with both extension blocks. VTB is normally not used in the wild. I provided it as a way to add more standard resolutions for CRT users.

I currently have two displays hooked up, a 27" oled monitor and a 48" LG C1 oled tv. The issue im having is that even with my monitor set as my primary display when I turn on my pc with my television turned off I get zero video output until I turn on my television. Doing some finicking with every setting possible and it seems to be an issue with the different resolution categories listed in nvidia control panel. When running a resolution from the "Ultra HD, HD, SD" Category the issue goes away, however when running a resolution from the "PC" or "Custom" Category the issue returns. The thing that sucks here is that the Ultra HD category lacks a 4K@120hz option. Meaning that I have to run 4K@60hz to avoid having to turn on my TV every time I want to use my PC. Is there any way to add a 120hz option into the Ultra HD category? If not that, do you have any suggestions on how to fix what clearly is a bug on nvidias/lg's side. I even tried hooking up a completely different PC and the issue occurs on there also which rules out my system being to blame.

Try editing the detailed resolution to use "Automatic HDTV" timing with the refresh rate at exactly 120 Hz. If that doesn't work, try adding it to the TV resolutions data block in the CTA-861 extension block.

"Automatic HDTV" is usually sufficient. If the TV doesn't support the resolution, use GPU scaling. The timing doesn't matter with GPU scaling, and it's easier to add GPU-scaled resolutions with SRE: https://www.monitortests.com/forum/Threa...Editor-SRE

I downloaded CRU to add 10 bit color permanently to my 240hz display. While this has worked flawlessly on my ASUS VG259QM (thank you), in the meantime, it has reconfigured my 2nd monitor which is an Acer XB273k. Whenever I'm under Detailed Resolutions, I can no longer choose both the 120hz refresh rate and the 4k resolution without checking interlacing. It doesn't matter which timing I select, it remains red. Trying to go to 1440p doesn't solve the issue either.

CRU seems to think it's connected via HDMI when it's really connected via DisplayPort

Hi, Is it possible to get 10 bit via dp 240hz?
It’s also interesting, I had resolutions display id 1.3, I deleted it and transferred the resolutions to display id 2.0, what does this do and could there be problems?)

That would depend on the resolution. If there is bandwidth for it, then yes. The DisplayID version doesn't really matter if it's just detailed resolutions. DisplayID 2.0 supports 3 decimal places for the pixel clock for more precision, but the hardware might not support such precision.

I think you're confused somewhere. Editing one monitor should not affect the other monitor. As mentioned in the first post, resolutions beyond 655.35 MHz pixel clock need to be added in a DisplayID extension block, but you shouldn't need to add 4K @ 120 Hz because the monitor should already have it defined. CRU doesn't report the connection type. It puts "(HDMI)" in the extension block list if there is an HDMI data block present.

Hi! I am working on a project that uses a panel I bought from Aliexpress due to its resolution and aspect ratio. However, the display's default orientation is portrait and I needed it to be in landscape. My project uses an iPad as the main computing device and could not rotate the panel in settings. Is there a way to change the EDID settings so that my monitor's default orientation is landscape? I tried using CRU to change some parameters and it seems like the driver board doesn't have any limit on changing EDID. Please let me know if this could be done via CRU or changing EDID information!

The EDID doesn't have orientation information.

Thx vm for answer. The guy above added 10bit to his asus 240hz, how did he do it?) regarding hardware support, display boe mv270qhm-nf6, dp 1.4a.
