Instead of real size in centimeters it contains encoded aspect ratio (e.g. 1600x900, 16x10, 160x90). This leads to incorrect calculation of diagonal for the purpose of e.g. Unity settings app. [Test Case] 1. Connect a display device that provides incorrect EDID data (e.g. LG 49UB850T-DA TV). 2. Open the Displays section of Unity settings. 3. Look for the name of the newly connected display in the settings window. Expected result: Display name should contain its real diagonal or model name (if dimensions are not availabe). Actual result: Display name contains a ridiculous diagonal (e.g. 72" in case of a 49" display). [Regression Potential] * This affects the way the display name will be formatted for any software using unity-settings-daemon. If anything is testing/comparing display names - it may fail. [Other Info] * Original bug description: After connecting a LG 49UB850T-DA TV the following information is displayed in the unity-control-center: Goldstar Company Ltd 72" It's misleading since neither the company name nor the diagonal matches.
