Title: 800x480 on VGA or HDMI on Android
Post by: tgreer on September 17, 2014, 12:02:17 PM
Hi

I'm looking for a way to get 800x480 output on preferably HDMI but happy for it to be VGA on an A20-OLinuXino-MICRO running Android.

Any thoughts?

Thanks

Thomas

It doesn't appear to be supported at that resolution. See here.

480p or 480i is 640 x 480

I run the A20 with Android with the default 720p on HDMI and it displays on both the LCD and HDMI TV at the same time. I have tried it with a full HD and a standard HD ready TV and it works.

I assume you want to drive into a standard monitor that is 800 x 480?

I have a nice in car screen thats native at 800x480... if I run anything else the screen will downscale, but it screws up the touchscreen
