    Hi Alberto,<br>
    <br>
    well a frame rate of 24Hz is perfectly reasonable for a TV and
    desktop usage.<br>
    <br>
    This is probably caused by the TVs limited HDMI bandwidth and a
    refresh rate of 30/25 Hz for the interlaced mode isn't much better
    either.<br>
    <br>
    Regards,<br>
    Christian.<br>

                  <div> Mhm, no idea why an interlaced resolution would
                    cause a crash. Maybe some miscalculation in the

                    <br>

                    <br>
                    See those resolutions only exists for backward
