Requires N64Digital firmware >= 0.140.0, a firmware < 0.140.2 requires a power cycle to read the custom modelines
Requires PFX PS1Digital firmware

This is an advanced feature for expert users.
Please read and understand section Maximum supported resolution / pixel clock frequency before proceeding!
Currently it's only possible to create progressive custom resolutions.
FX-Framework supports two custom modelines, so you can customize the HDMI output timings if needed.
After creating a custom modeline.ini this file can be uploaded via the web interface:
Modelines are stored in an .ini file, which has the following format:
[NTSC]
custom1=DISPLAY_NAME, H_TOTAL, H_ACTIVE, H_FRONT_PORCH, H_BACK_PORCH, H_SYNC_WIDTH, V_TOTAL, V_ACTIVE, V_FRONT_PORCH, V_BACK_PORCH, V_SYNC_WIDTH, H_POL, V_POL, DZ, PR, VIC
custom2=DISPLAY_NAME,...
; lines starting with a ; or # or empty lines are ignored
[PAL]
custom1=DISPLAY_NAME,...
custom2=DISPLAY_NAME,...
custom1 / custom2 these are the two available custom slots. One modeline cannot be spread over multiple lines.
DISPLAY_NAME this is the name displayed in the OSD. Can be up to 8 characters long. Currently only the NTSC names are displayed.
H_TOTAL / V_TOTAL Horizontal total pixels / Vertical total lines
H_ACTIVE / V_ACTIVE Horizontal active pixels / Vertical active lines
H_FRONT_PORCH / V_FRONT_PORCH Horizontal front porch width / Vertical front porch lines
H_BACK_PORCH / V_BACK_PORCH Horizontal back porch width / Vertical back porch lines
H_SYNC_WIDTH / V_SYNC_WIDTH Horizontal sync width / Vertical sync lines
H_POL / V_POL Polarity of the horizontal / vertical sync signal (1: positive, 0: negative)
DZ Default Scaler Zoom for this resolution (floating point number)
PR
Pixel repetition (0: 1x, 1: 2x, 3: 4x) send to the sink
PLL Pixel repetition (p:0: 1x, p:1: 2x, p:3: 4x) pixels repeated on the HDMI TX
Requires FX-Framework >= 2.1.0
VIC Video Information Code, should be 0 for non standard resolutions
Pixel clock is calculated from the frame rate
Each modeline should be defined for both NTSC or PAL, otherwise FX-Framework falls back to 1080p after a region change (loading a PAL game from an NTSC console and vice versa)
The HDMI TX used is specified for a maximum pixel clock frequency (PIXEL_CLOCK) of 165MHz.
To calculate the pixel clock frequency of a custom modeline, use this formula:
NTSC: PIXEL_CLOCK (MHz) = H_TOTAL * V_TOTAL * 60 / 1000000
PAL: PIXEL_CLOCK (MHz) = H_TOTAL * V_TOTAL * 50 / 1000000
Exceeding the specified guaranteed maximum frequency will increase current consumption and will generate more heat. It also may not work on your specific unit. Monitor temperatures!
