Firmware fully updated with rpi-update.

$ tvservice -m CEA
Group CEA has 16 modes:
           mode 1: 640x480 @ 60Hz 4:3, clock:25MHz progressive
           mode 2: 720x480 @ 60Hz 4:3, clock:27MHz progressive
           mode 3: 720x480 @ 60Hz 16:9, clock:27MHz progressive
  (native) mode 4: 1280x720 @ 60Hz 16:9, clock:74MHz progressive
           mode 5: 1920x1080 @ 60Hz 16:9, clock:74MHz interlaced
           mode 6: 720x480 @ 60Hz 4:3, clock:27MHz x2 interlaced
           mode 7: 720x480 @ 60Hz 16:9, clock:27MHz x2 interlaced
           mode 16: 1920x1080 @ 60Hz 16:9, clock:148MHz progressive
           mode 17: 720x576 @ 50Hz 4:3, clock:27MHz progressive
           mode 18: 720x576 @ 50Hz 16:9, clock:27MHz progressive
  (prefer) mode 19: 1280x720 @ 50Hz 16:9, clock:74MHz progressive
           mode 20: 1920x1080 @ 50Hz 16:9, clock:74MHz interlaced
           mode 21: 720x576 @ 50Hz 4:3, clock:27MHz x2 interlaced
           mode 22: 720x576 @ 50Hz 16:9, clock:27MHz x2 interlaced
           mode 31: 1920x1080 @ 50Hz 16:9, clock:148MHz progressive
           mode 32: 1920x1080 @ 24Hz 16:9, clock:74MHz progressive

On load, screen goes into preferred (720p, 19) mode, disregards mode 16.

To my knowledge, there's no way for Screenly to disregard these settings. These are loaded on boot and used by the hardware (i.e. far before Screenly is loaded).

My guess is that it is not the correct setting for the hardware.

I'd recommend that you try a vanilla Raspbian and see if you can reproduce the behavior and then post on the Raspberry Pi forum for further advice. I unfortunately don't have any ideas here.

Okay, my bad, it's not yours, cheers! https://github.com/raspberrypi/firmware/issues/280
