I'm using piCorePlayer just for the Jivelite add-on.

And also I'm extending power from the screens USB power out to the Pi's
power in.

When in this configuration I get the lightening bolt no matter how low I
set brightness etc.

But when I use separate power for both screen and Pi, it goes away.

Also when I use a mains power tester the draw is the same for both
configurations.

So it seems the Pi 3 is too power hungry. Not tried a Pi2 yet.

Is there anything I can do with the screens USB out to increase power to
the Pi, or reduce demand of the Pi3?

Are my assumptions correct? 

Cheers
