1. write register FF of CEC device to &h87.
                (68ff = 87h)           -> activate all clock tree inc HDMI ones so you can then use HDMI device
2. select page 00 of HDMI device :  write 00 in FF
                (e0ff =00h)
3. write register A0 of HDMI device to select predefined format :
                (e0a0 = 06h)       -> select a predefined 1080p60 format
4. write registers A5 and A6 with total number of pixels per line (or greater value)
                (e0a5 = 08h)
