Re: Pi 4 Over scan settings not working

Pushed for review this afternoon - https://github.com/raspberrypi/linux/pull/3090 This is using the upstream approach of scaling all planes, whereas the previous firmware overscan would reduce the framebuffer size instead (at least by default). I may look into whether we can fiddle the mode list tha...

Re: Kernel panic = ded os because too much gpu ram? (Pls send help. And fix)

(a) No, there is no way to directly alter the gpu ram if you've done silly things in config.txt. (b) There's very little point in increasing gpu_mem significantly. You can't use the legacy 3D driver as it is for the older 3D hardware only. The new 3D hardware has an IOMMU, therefore it doesn't need ...

Re: [MOTION] Overexposure using YUV format

Set the module parameters max_video_width and max_video_height on bcm2835-v4l2 to be equal to or greater than the resolution you are capturing. The defaults are 1280 and 720 respectively. The simplest way is to create a file in /etc/modprobe.d called bcm2835-v4l2 containing the text options bcm2835-...

If you just want a single frame in the native format of the source, then use v4l2-ctl v4l2-ctl --set-dv-bt-timings query v4l2-ctl -v pixelformat=UYVY v4l2-ctl --stream-mmap=3 --stream-count=1 --stream-to=foo.uyvy You can add --skip-count=N to skip some frames at the start of the stream.

Re: Pi4 - custom dual display configuration

Re: Clone UHD60 outputs on Pi4?

Generally it is memory bandwidth that is the limiting factor for dual 4k60. Hdmi1 also has a slightly smaller fifo, so the timing of available memory bandwidth is more critical. It may be that we can find settings that allow it with limited scene complexity, but that'll be a little way down the line...

Re: RPi 4 - Dual screen in CLI

I don't believe Linux allows you to stretch the console framebuffer across two screens. I've never seen it on any install I've ever done. I'm not sure what the gain would be in stretching the screen when at the console.

You can control the two displays independently via libdrm when in the console.

SMBus is defintely NOT what you want. It is a protocol that is partially compatible with I2C, but enforces sending a register address before every read. The datasheet says that tconv is 7.5usecs, which would be 133kHz. With the default I2C frequency being 100kHz you're probably getting away without ...
