For example, if CRTC R2=46, and CRTC HSYNC width is 14 chars then monitor hsync starts at 48 and lasts only until 51 included.
The HSYNC pulse width needs to be at least 2µs for Gate Array to change the video mode.
The VSYNC is also modified before being sent to the monitor. It happens two lines* after the VSYNC from the CRTC and stay two lines (same cut rule if VSYNC is lower than 4). PAL (50Hz) does need two lines VSYNC_width, and 4µs HSYNC_width.
