Want to interface HDMI display to Rpi3 & rpi zero boards.

Tue Feb 20, 2018 3:28 pm

Hello Experts,
I have HDMI display which has corrupted EDID checksum and its working with other ARM board with work around.
The same display I am using on Rpi3 & rpi zero boards and got the below output image.
https://drive.google.com/file/d/13h7srC ... HoO_9/view
Seems its using correct 1366x768 resolution but color is not correct, what could be the problem ?
And this is my config.txt file.

Here is the link where I discussed the issue. BTW, this HDMI diplay works with Windows & Linux PC without any issues.

Can you please support me on this issue ?
How the EDID is handled in rpi hdmi driver if any corrupted or incorrect EDID data present ?
Thanks for the support.

Hi,
Thanks for the input.

hdmi_group=2
hdmi_mode=81

I have tried to set the width & height manually, and got the attached output (Black image)

Try adding

Code: Select all

hdmi_ignore_edid=0xa5000080
to your config.txt. That tells Raspbian to completely ignore any EDID data in your monitor. You'll then have to provide the additional information in config.txt to get the correct resolution.

Try also adding:
hdmi_force_hotplug=1
hdmi_drive=1
hdmi_group=2
hdmi_mode=81

And if that doesn't work, try hdmi modes 86 or 39 instead.

And/or, you could try config_hdmi_boost= with a value of 6 to 11 (use the lowest value that helps).
My mind is like a browser. 27 tabs are open, 9 aren't responding,
lots of pop-ups, and where is that annoying music coming from?
