NAME
     ps3-video-mode — PS3 video mode utility

SYNOPSIS
     ps3-video-mode [-m, --mode mode-id] [-r, --rgb] [-f, --full-screen]
		    [-g, --full-range] [-d, --dither] [-h, --help]
		    [-V, --version]

DESCRIPTION
     The ps3-video-mode utility is used to display or change the video mode of
     the PS3 game console.  The default behavior is to display the current
     video mode ID.

OPTIONS
     -m, --mode mode-id
	     Set the system video mode to mode-id.  See the NOTES section
	     below for more information on the mode-id value.

     -r, --rgb
	     Use RGB color space mode.

     -f, --full-screen
	     Use full screen mode.

     -g, --full-range
	     Use full range mode.

     -d, --dither
	     Use dither mode.

     -h, --help
	     Print a help message.

     -V, --version
	     Display the program version number.

NOTES
   Video Mode IDs and Mode Names
     The supported video mode-id values, coresponding mode-name values, and
     screen resolutions are as follows:

	   AUTO Detect Mode:
		  0: auto (480i/576i if not HDMI)

	   60 Hz Broadcast Modes:
		  1: 480i    (576 x 384)
		  2: 480p    (576 x 384)
		  3: 720p   (1124 x 644)
		  4: 1080i  (1688 x 964)
		  5: 1080p  (1688 x 964)

	   50 Hz Broadcast Modes:
		  6: 576i    (576 x 460)
		  7: 576p    (576 x 460)
		  8: 720p   (1124 x 644)
		  9: 1080i  (1688 x 964)
		 10: 1080p  (1688 x 964)

	   VESA Modes:
		 11: wxga   (1280 x 768)
		 12: sxga   (1280 x 1024)
		 13: wuxga  (1920 x 1200)

	   60 Hz Full Screen Broadcast Modes:
		129: 480if   (720 x 480)
		130: 480pf   (720 x 480)
		131: 720pf  (1280 x 720)
		132: 1080if (1920 x 1080)
		133: 1080pf (1920 x 1080)

	   50 Hz Full Screen Broadcast Modes:
		134: 576if   (720 x 576)
		135: 576pf   (720 x 576)
		136: 720pf  (1280 x 720)
		137: 1080if (1920 x 1080)
		138: 1080pf (1920 x 1080)

     Note that VESA modes are only valid for the HDMI port.

     The mode options --rgb, --full-screen, --full-range and --dither can be
     specified via the mode-id as follows:

	   RGB color space:  <video mode ID> + 32
	   Full screen mode: <video mode ID> + 128
	   Full range mode:  <video mode ID> + 1536
	   Dither mode:	     <video mode ID> + 2048

   RGB Color Space Mode
     The RGB color space mode --rgb is only valid for the analog port.	The
     default is to use the YUV color space.

   Full Screen Mode
     Originally 480/576i, 480/576p, 720p, 1080i, and 1080p were analog broad‐
     cast resolutions that included overscan.  The full screen mode option
     --full-screen causes the overscan region of the broadcast modes to be
     used for pixel display.  Not all displays can support full screen mode.

   RGB Full Range Mode
     The full range mode --full-range adjusts the dynamic range of the video
     output RGB values.

     This setting affects the video output signal on both the analog and HDMI
     ports, but is only useful with some HDMI displays.	 When this option is
     not enabled the video output signal will have an RGB dynamic range of 16
     to 235, and when enabled will have an RGB dynamic range of 0 to 255.
     This option must be specified by the user because the HDMI information
     received from the attached display does not specify whether the display
     supports RGB full range mode or not.

   Dither Mode
     The dither mode option --dither suppresses the Mach Band Effect.  See
     http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mach_bands.

   Other Notes
     Don’t change the display resolution while sound is playing.

     Don’t change the display resolution from X.  If you do, you will need to
     restart the X server.  This is because the X frame buffer driver assumes
     a frame buffer has a fixed line length.

     If you would like to boot Linux into a specific video mode you may pass a
     video mode option on the kernel the command line.	Two formats are avail‐
     able.  One uses a video mode name as video=mode-name, and the other uses
     a video mode-id as video=ps3fb:mode:mode-id.  See the EXAMPLES section
     below for more information.

EXAMPLES
     Examples (1) and (2) are equivelent, and both set the video mode to 60Hz
     720p full screen:

	   ps3-video-mode --mode=3 --full-screen    (1)
	   ps3-video-mode --mode=131		    (2)

     Example (3) uses the kernel command line to set the video mode to VESA
     WUXGA:

	   vmlinux video=wuxga ...		    (3)

     Examples (4) and (5) are equivelent, and both set the video mode to 50Hz
     1080p:

	   vmlinux video=1080p@50 ...		    (4)
	   vmlinux video=ps3fb:mode:10 ...	    (5)
