Thanks chill
That gives about 5mm top and bottom and with HD image 1280 x 1024 gives
an image exactly as Have been used
to with Daphile but with a Pi.
Thanks again chill, I also have much more clue about config.txt.
You could experiment with the overscan settings. From the config.txt
file:
Code:
# uncomment the following to adjust overscan. Use positive numbers if
console
# goes off screen, and negative if there is too much border
#overscan_left=16
#overscan_right=16
I have set frame buffer size to 1024 x 600, saved it.
Chosen grid screen 1024 x 600 and saved and rebooted pCP.
There is still a 1cm black band at top and bottom of screen (8cm
height)
How could I expand into this space. Any ideas.

That's your problem. What you've done:
1) By setting the framebuffer values, you've told the operating system
that your screen is 1024x600.
2) By choosing a 640x480 skin, you've told Jivelite only to use the
central 640x480 section of your screen.

Its 1024 x 600 small flatscreen.

The frame buffer is set to 1024x600. and with 640x480 skin, height is a
bit higher but still a bit of waste space above image.
What is over scan and can I reduce it at all.
I do backup and reboot, after saving any alterations to the card.

A good strategy in general, but in this case, for changes to config.txt
on the boot partition, no.

Having a fresh brain didn't help. I found config.txt, removed the # and
changed to 1024 and 600, not much difference.
Trouble is I don't understand what I need to change it to. Can you
suggest any values to try to get greater screen height.
The screen is max 1024 x 600.
Thanks
Thanks chill
That looks what I need. I will have a go tomorrow when my brain is
fresh.

You may need to edit the config.txt file on the boot partition of your
SD card, so that greater resolutions are supported.
You can either do this by inserting the SD card into your laptop - the
boot partition should be accessible - or by accessing pCP over SSH, and
typing 'm1' at the command
