Jetson TX2 devkit's HDMI output

Hi everyone,
Currently, I am checking HDMI output of Jetson TX2 devkit on JetPack 3.1 — L4T R28.1.
I connect HDMI output with samsung UHD TV (QN55Q7FAM) which support for 3840x2160@60fps. However, I cannot change TX2 devkit’s HDMI output resolution to 3840x2160@60fps; it only can be 3840x2160@30fps.
When I execute command

DISPLAY=:0 xrandr

The result is

4096x2160     30.00 +  29.97    25.00    24.00    23.98
   3840x2160     30.00*   29.97    25.00    24.00    23.98
   1920x1080     60.00    59.95    50.00    30.00    29.97    25.00    24.00    23.98
   1680x1050     59.96
   1600x900      60.00
   1440x900      59.89
   1366x768      59.79
   1280x1024     75.03    60.00
   1280x800      59.81
   1280x720      60.00    59.94    50.00
   1152x864      75.00
   1024x768      75.03    70.07    60.01
   832x624       75.05
   800x600       75.00    72.19    60.32
   720x576       50.00
   720x480       59.94
   720x400       70.04
   640x480       75.00    72.81    67.06    59.94

It means that kernel cannot recognize 3840x2160@60fps of Samsung TV.
How can I solve this problem?

P.S. I check Samsung TV with some other sources and it works well with 3840x2160@60fps

Quang_OpenStack,

Sorry that I didn’t know you are in rel-28.1. Have you tried it on rel-28.2?

Also, please make sure this mode is not a YUV mode or interlaced mode. These modes are rejected.

Hi WayneWWW,
As your suggestion, I install Jetpack 3.2 and test HDMI output.
However 3840x2160@60fps still not work with Samsung TV, the supported resolution is

3840x2160     30.00*+  29.97    25.00    24.00    23.98
   4096x2160     30.00    29.97    25.00    24.00    23.98

   1680x1050     59.96
   1600x900      60.00
   1440x900      59.89

   1280x720      60.00    59.94    50.00
   1152x864      75.00
   1024x768      75.03    70.07    60.01
   832x624       75.05
   800x600       75.00    72.19    60.32

   640x480       75.00    72.81    67.06    59.94

Do you have any suggestion?
Thank in advance.

Hi WayneWWW,
I also test Jetpack 3.2 with other TV, LG webOS OLED55B7K, and HDMI output can works with 3840x2160@60fps

Quang_OpenStack,

So the LG tv is working on rel-28.2 but not rel-28.1 and Samsung one is working neither on 28.1 nor 28.2. Is that correct?

Could you confirm that mode is CEA one and not YUV or interlaced one? Could you share the edid of both display?

Hi WayneWWW,

LG TV is not in my place until next week, i will give you edid information later

Please also check the Xorg.0.log after you add debug option to xorg.conf.

ref: Jetson TX2/r28 Display debug - eLinux.org

The attached file is Xorg.0.log on rel-28.2 with Samsung TV
Xorg.0.log (179 KB)

Quang_OpenStack,

If rel-28.2 is woriking good with Samsung TV, can we stick to rel-28.2 and focus only on the problem of LG tv?

Any reason to stay on rel-28.1?

Hi WayneWWW,
Maybe it has some confuse here, rel-28.2 does not work with Samsung.
rel-28.1 does not work with both Samsung and LG TV.
rel-28.2 works with LG TV but it does not work with Samsung which support 3840x2160@60fps.
I may migrate to new version, but if the problem does not fix yet, we are still on trouble.
Thank

Just a note that for me, rel-28.2 is driving a LG 27UK850 monitor over HDMI2 successfully at 3840x2160@60HZ (60fps) as reported by the monitor OSD.

Quang_OpenStack,

Sorry for confusing the monitors. I opened the wrong log in previous comment.
Just checked your edid through online edid parser: http://www.edidreader.com/ and also the xorg.log.

Your 3840x2160@60 on Samsung monitor is a YUV420 mode. L4T on tegra does not support YUV mode currently.

Hi WayneWWW,
How about LG TV situation, rel-28.1 did not work but rel-28.2 work well?

Could you share your LG TV edid?

Hi WayneWWW,
This week, LG TV is not in my place so I cannot do experiment. I will give you information about edid on next week.
Thank in advance.

Hi WayneWWW,
Sorry for late repose.

Quang_OpenStack,

I think LG TV has different problem as your Samsung one. LG TV has 4k mode with non-YUV mode, so the reason your rel-28.1 cannot use may be the same issue as we resolved in another topic

https://devtalk.nvidia.com/default/topic/1003956/jetson-tx2/tx2-not-booting-up-with-hdmi-connected/post/5160211/#5160211

Dear WayneWWW,
I recompile kernel with modification on …/…/display/drivers/video/tegra/dc/hdmi2.0.c. However, it still cannot fix 4K@60fps output problem on LG TV with rel-28.1

Why you need to use rel-28.1 but not latest build? In fact, the thread I pasted does not resolve all error cases but just a patch for some users.

Dear WayneWWW,
We will move to rel-28.2 later, however with some TV like Samsung, 4K@60fps output did not solve yet.
