I am trying to run PiCorePlayer as an alternative to SqueezeOnArch (SoA). My configuration is using a 5" 800x480 HDMI display. I managed to configure it under SoA, but don't know where to modify my PiCorePlayer setup. The monitor works, but it seems to not be correct - when booting it looks like there's only information for a smaller display (extra space on the monitor....). I see the same thing with the JiveLite in PiCorePlayer - it doesn't extend all the way across the screen. The display vendor has generic setup instructions for the RaspPi, but I don't think the locations/config files are the same with the PiCorePlayer setup. Here's information from the display vendor: [Says "On Raspberry Pi, you're better off forcing the HDMI resolution by using the following config.txt file (in /boot/config.txt) - you can edit it by popping the SD card into your computer, the config.txt file is in the root directory"]
# uncomment if you get no picture on HDMI for a default "safe" mode #hdmi_safe=1 # uncomment this if your display has a black border of unused pixels visible # and your display can output without overscan #disable_overscan=1 # 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 #overscan_top=16 #overscan_bottom=16 # uncomment to force a console size. By default it will be display's size minus # overscan. #framebuffer_width=1280 #framebuffer_height=720 # uncomment if hdmi display is not detected and composite is being output hdmi_force_hotplug=1 # uncomment to force a specific HDMI mode (here we are forcing 800x480!) hdmi_group=2 hdmi_mode=1 hdmi_mode=87 hdmi_cvt 800 480 60 6 0 0 0 max_usb_current=1 # uncomment to force a HDMI mode rather than DVI. This can make audio work in # DMT (computer monitor) modes #hdmi_drive=2 # uncomment to increase signal to HDMI, if you have interference, blanking, or # no display #config_hdmi_boost=4 # uncomment for composite PAL #sdtv_mode=2 #uncomment to overclock the arm. 700 MHz is the default. #arm_freq=800 # for more options see http://elinux.org/RPi_config.txt ------------------------------------------------------------------------ tcutting's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17402 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=97803 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
