Although the M2 SoC supports 1080p, the M2 Porter board is limited to 1080i
on the HDMI and Analog RGB outputs. I'll update the Genivi ticket.

For M2 Porter therefore please either set the resolution to 1080i or 720p when
using HDMI.

If you need a higher resolution on HDMI/Analog RGB for R-Car boards from Renesas 
then you could use H2 Lager in R-Car Generation 2, or H3/M3 in Generation 3.
