Bug report - Set resolution gets overridden

Hi,

I manually set my resolution in the formuler screen settings to 1080p, 60hertz. My tv is 1080p, 60 hertz.

Randomly my set resolution gets overriden and i check resolution again and suddenly its set at 4k (auto).

It looks like either formuler or some apps mess with my resolution settings.

My suggestion would be to add a lock resolution feature or to just not override my manually set resolution.

Much appreciated!

Greetings, Erik.

zenguy If your tv is 1080p 60HZ then there is a serious bug if auto resolution set it to 4k because "auto" means it's pulling EDID given by your tv and if that EDID says 4k it's because your tv has 4k capabilities.

As for the lock resolution i've asked for that long time ago. Not yet i'm afraid.

My 1080p tv has HDR support.

I noticed that alot of app developers automaticly assume you use a 4k resolution screen whenever hdr is enabled. I turned hdr off in my formuler settings. Not sure what my tv is doing!

Im using a cheap tv from the ‘peaq’ brand paid around 150 euros for it new at Mediamarkt (a huge dutch-netherlands store.)

My xbox series s wont even enable hdr unless the tv supports 4k.

Mediamarkt is German!

German is definitly our root. Dutch/netherlands is a hybrid language, as far i know, but im not educated very well.

Bump

I found a fix that worked for me!

If you go to the formuler settings and change energy mode to shutdown instead of standby it fixes the issue, the formuler will startup with the correct resolution.
