Monitor asset manager utility question
Using the Monitor Asset Manager utility, does anyone know for sure if any of the values will tell you for certain if a 2012 3DTV will do 1080p120? I had assumed that "Maximum TMDS clock", which is 225mhz on every tv i've tested indicated the HDMI port processor speed, but i'm not really sure. I noticed that "video bandwidth" which is usually 150mhz, got a 250mhz value off of one tv i tested, but i didn't catch which one.

Does anyone know for sure if any of these value or others can or will indicate a 1080p120 3DTV?

You can use Extron EDID Manager to decipher Data Blocks of EDIDs from the registry.

If not in the registry, it needs to be in a .bin file format for Extron to open.

Phoenix EDID Designer will open a .dat file.

DeltacastE-EDID Editor will open it if it's a .hex file and it also has a nice help menu to understand it.

Here's a link to a page that helps to understand some of it as well http://www.reference.com/browse/Extended_display_identification_data

Yep you need "Fast HDMI" or DL-DVI speeds for 1080p/120 which is 330/340MHz TMDS. HDTVs and their makers won't support chips that fast n their TVs until there's a reason to and not a second sooner as its a guaranteed way to force everyone to upgrade to a $1000+ HDTV all over again.

Couple things though, the VG278H has a "video bandwidth" value of 290. Most TV's i test show a 150mhz video bandwidth value. But one of the Tvs i tested had a video bandwidth of 250, with a tmds clock of 225mhz, thus, are you sure that a 1080p60/3D TV will show a tdms clock of 300+ mhz? Perhaps the hdmi port processor operates using a multiplier?
