I build one of leather. Very simple, it is just a pouch. I stitched two
pieces of leather using a sawing machine. It took me around 15-20
minutes of work. It is thin, and looks decent.

Re: Howto configure borderless 4:3 tv-out on n900?

[Till Harbaum / Lists]

Hi,

thanks for your reply. I fiddled a little bit around with this. 

It's pretty easy to stretch the image vertically to full screen. You just
need to set
echo 640,480 > /sys/devices/platform/omapdss/overlay2/output_size
and 
echo 42,30 > /sys/devices/platform/omapdss/overlay2/position
The media player does the same.

The problem is the horizontal stretch. You can't write to 
/sys/devices/platform/omapdss/overlay2/input_size and by checking
what the media player does i found out that it actually changes this
to 640x480 when playing a 4:3 video. Unfortunately the /sys interface
doesn't allow to write these, so i'll have a look at the ioctls next.
