I get perfect output at 1280x1024 on my 1080p Dell P2418HT screen with firmware M2T102.
Hmmm….I have a theory but the darn manual is missing the “sync” line in the specs that Dell Used to put out until around 2009!!!  So those aren’t stated anywhere. 

However I do not think it’s SOG compliant, it appears to be SOG tolerant (still requiring H/V sync).  I say this because in the manual the OSD menu has an RGB selector for the VGA standard that claims to also cover DVD.

So I think their implying it’s Macrovison immune (clamps chroma).  If that’s true it might clamp all signals and thereby filter the green signal’s “tint”/sync signal out. 

Would be great if modern documentation said something (but I’ve seen Dell omit this line in all new Dell monitors I’ve purchase in the last 11 years), sad because you look at monitors from like 2007, it says yes or no right in the manual.  Now they hide/lie. 

Love the stand!
