Wrong section.  We need to see the Device section.  If the hardware is
at all modern, the Screen section will take care of itself once the

Just send the whole file.  Bandwidth is not that expensive; send all
the information you can get your hands on, unless you have reason to

need to send, it's probably short enough to send. :-)
