wayland-info to 'invalid format' quest

[Jack Craig <jack.craig.aptos@xxxxxxxxx>]

hi all,

i am trying to fathom what hung me out to dry trying to
evaluate resolution options for  my F34/hdtv.

entering display settings, looking at the list of possible resolutions,
there are several.

many of those options, if selected yields 'invalid format' !

what is this telling me?! X by Y values? refresh rate???

while xrandr looks at resolutions and displays options for x11.

what is the wayland to evaluate resolution format?

jonathan kindly pointed me to  ~/.config/monitor.xml

hacking this file fixed my error msg, but does not explain what's wrong.

any additional insight out there??

tia, jackc...
