We are configuring a MAX96751 serializer for a resolution of 1600×480. We have generated a custom EDID and configured the serializer accordingly. When connected to a laptop/PC, the system correctly detects and supports the 1600×480 resolution.
However, on our i.MX8M Plus EVK, the HDMI output only defaults to 800×600, and the custom resolution is not being applied.
We have already:
- Generated and applied a custom EDID
- Verified the resolution works on other systems (PC/laptop)
- Attempted manual resolution configuration
Could you please confirm:
- Whether the i.MX8M Plus HDMI interface supports custom resolutions and timings?
- The correct procedure to configure a custom HDMI resolution (e.g., via EDID, device tree, or DRM settings)?
- Any additional steps required to force the system to use the custom mode?
