HDMI resolution not supported?

Hi,

I have a beaglebone with which I am having trouble getting an HDMI output on a 50 inch tv. I am getting HDMI output on 32 inch TV but not on a 50 inch. It just says resolution not supported.
I have tried forcing different resolutions through uEnv.txt but that did not work.

What changes can I make to get HDMI output?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you

Which resolutions did you try?

The BBB has a limited pixel clock frequency. The resolutions most
likely to work with your TV are 720p (60 Hz) and 1080i (60 frame/30
hz), since HDMI requires one of these resolutions to be supported by
any HDMI device capable of HD (per the HDMI 1.4b spec):

"An HDMI Sink that accepts 60Hz video formats, and that supports HDTV
capability shall support 1280x720p @ 59.94/60Hz or 1920x1080i @
59.94/60Hz video format timings."

If you're lucky, the TV will support 1080p30, which will typically
look better than 1080i, but this isn't an HDMI requirement.

Hi Charles,

I have tried all the resolutions mentioned in this website: https://elinux.org/Beagleboard:BeagleBoneBlack_HDMI
