I don't know what you mean. What device are you using for audio? Normally you shouldn't have to add Dolby Digital if the device supports it.

Better for what? Higher pixel clock wastes bandwidth, and lower vertical blanking will prevent the GPU from clocking down, so neither is better than the common standards.

This TV's specs show only HD ready but somehow it runs on full HD when I plug a firestick into the HDMI port. This made me curious to find a way to run it on full hd when connected to computer.
Full HD wasn't listed as one of the resolutions in windows so I found CRU and added 1920x1080 resolution to the list in CRU and clicked ok. It went kind of downhill from there. All the previous modes listed went away and my intel graphics driver has a warning symbol next to it in device manager. Dedicated graphics memory shows 0mb and adapter type has switched to microsoft basic display driver. I have a very old pc with intel G41 chipset and I am running windows 10 32 bit version.

There's no reason for that to happen because CRU doesn't touch the graphics driver, and running reset-all.exe and rebooting removes all changes, so something else is going on. It's possible the graphics driver failed to restart after running restart.exe, but in that case, you can just reboot and run restart.exe or enable the device manually in Device Manager. I don't see how the problem could persist after reinstalling the graphics driver. Try using DDU to completely uninstall the graphics driver before reinstalling it: https://www.wagnardsoft.com/display-driv...aller-ddu-

Thankyou very much for your suggestion to uninstall the driver and for answering all queries on this forum, helping out people that are stuck. I simply uninstalled the driver from "add or remove programs" and it worked!. The pc took a long time to shut down and turn back on but when it did start, the display was clearer, the long list of resolutions was back, the display driver also got re-installed automatically (I guess by Windows 10). The yellow triangle warning sign under "display adapters" in device manager is gone and "Intel® G41 Express Chipset (Microsoft Corporation - WDDM 1.1)" is listed there and working properly. I got my 64b back lol.
Thanks once again

Hello, I am having issues with making new resolution on Windows 11. Over at Windows 10 this program worked flawlessly. My objective is to get 16:9 resolutions on 16:10 monitor. I can do exactly that on Windows 10, just add 1920x1080 at detailed resolution and done! However I can't seem to achieve that on Windows 11. I can't find the custom resolution I'm trying to add on Display settings. Even after restart64.exe and windows reboot, it's same issue.
I assumed it could be because my AMD software messing with it's own custom resolution, so I fresh reinstalled Windows 11 without AMD software, and it's still same. At least with AMD software I can add 1920x1080 but it doesn't automatically set 16:9 as native res as well as introduces problems like forced 6bit color depth and too much display flicker.
Can I get any solution about this? My GPU is AMD Radeon Vega 8, integrated on Ryzen 3 2200G. Windows 11 Pro 21H2

Screenshot: (It says Restart required even though I restarted countless times and used restart64.exe)

Can you recommend something to read or explain what I need to know to do something decent with CRU?
I would like to learn more about monitors

Hello, I'm getting the following error message for AMD Radeon software after trying to enable freesync with CRU.


I have an Ryzen 4700U. Is this normal?

Thanks

You're not making sense. What are you trying to do?

Something is wrong with the monitor or cable because it should not say Generic Non-PnP Monitor, which means the driver can't read the EDID.
