Interestingly xrandr with the synthetic modelines does report refresh
rates, albeit slightly wrong (76Hz instead of 75)
# xrandr
SZ: Pixels Physical Refresh
*0 1280 x 1024 ( 361mm x 292mm ) *76
1 1024 x 768 ( 361mm x 292mm ) 85
2 800 x 600 ( 361mm x 292mm ) 86
3 640 x 480 ( 361mm x 292mm ) 86
Would it be more accurate for mythtv to actually time the drm sync
interval to establish the refresh rate rather than use the refresh rate
reported by X? or does it just use that value as a guide?
