This is the modeline which works:
 
 Section "Monitor"
 	Identifier   "0-CRT1"
	ModeLine     "1920x1080" 148.5 1920 2008 2052 2200 1080 1084 1088 1125 +hsync +vsync
	Option	    "VendorName" "ATI Proprietary Driver"
	Option	    "ModelName" "Phillips 46PFL7007 VGA"
	Option	    "DPMS" "true"
	Option	    "PreferredMode" "1920x1080"
	Option	    "TargetRefresh" "60"
	Option	    "Position" "0 0"
	Option	    "Rotate" "normal"
	Option	    "Disable" "false"
EndSection

Now i can watch movies and tv  in living room.
Wireless mouse + fvwm is enough.
Bye xbmc and DLNA, it's more comfortable to have complete desktop on TV.

HW (H264) acceleration is working too.
If anyone is interested:
