VideoModeDescriptor class
The VideoModeDescriptorVideo WMI class contains mode descriptor elements for the MonitorSourceModes array in the WmiMonitorListedSupportedSourceModes class. These elements include monitor features such as refresh rate, pixel characteristics, or image size. The VideoModeDescriptorVideo class contains information that is a superset of the data available from established, standard, and detailed timing blocks.
