           Summary: 'Option "MonitorLayout" "CRT"' disables xv playback
           Product: xorg
           Version: 6.8.2
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Driver/Radeon
        AssignedTo: xorg-bugzilla-noise at freedesktop.org
        ReportedBy: kiltharan at yahoo.de


When 'Option "MonitorLayout" "CRT"' is commented (not used), xorg refuses to   
set the resolution to 1600x1200, even though the correct modeline is specified   
and only one resolution is defined below the screen section. I just get a max.   
resolution of 1280x1024.    
Uncommenting 'Option "MonitorLayout" "CRT"' does the trick, I do get my desired   
resolution/refresh rate, however, no scalable video playback is possible,  
especially not using xv any more.   
xine, mplayer, vlc, does not matter. With mplayer, playback through x11 works,  
but does not scale. Commenting MonitorLayout again and all videoplayback is 
fine, but the resolution ...  
This behaviour is new to 6.8.x and did not exist with 6.7.0.   
   
Monitor is an NEC1375x, which is correctly detected asides the HorizSync value,   
however, albeit CRT, it has an DVI-D input, which is connetcted to the analog   
output of the Radeon 8500LE and this may explain the need for MonitorLayerout   
CRT
