I'm using a cheaper Sony TV with a DVI->HDMI adapter, and didn't use 
any modelines. It just works. I end up with 4 different 1080 modes 
(1080i, 1080p24, 1080p30, 1080p60), switchable using nvidia-settings 
or xrandr.

Here are the relevant sections from xorg.conf:

Section "Monitor"
     Identifier "Monitor0"
     VendorName "Unknown"
     ModelName "SONY TV"
     HorizSync 15.0 - 70.0
     VertRefresh 58.0 - 62.0
EndSection

Section "Device"
     Identifier "Videocard0"
     VendorName "NVIDIA Corporation"
     BoardName "GeForce 7050 PV / NVIDIA nForce 630a"
     Driver "nvidia"
EndSection

Section "Screen"
     Identifier "Screen0"
     Device "Videocard0"
     Monitor "Monitor0"

     EndSubsection

     Option "UseEvents" "True"
EndSection
