@ian57

thank you

where can I download recalbox 7.2 beta ？

I will try that

[ian57]

@DRAgon734235 sorry you cannot it's development only actually
I think it will be soon released.I get this

[DRAgon734235]

@ian57
OK ， I will test when recalbox 7.2 beta come .

it is possible to rotate the DPI or HDMI LCD with 90 or 270 at recalbox 4B？

[ian57]

@DRAgon734235 no not yep... even with new 5.10 kernels

did you see this https://www.waveshare.com/wiki/2.8inch_DPI_LCD there are specific overlays for this screen https://www.waveshare.com/wiki/File:28DPIB_DTBO.zip

I think you should copy them in the /boot/overlays directory and use the config from the wiki :

gpio=0-9=a2
gpio=12-17=a2
gpio=20-25=a2
dtoverlay=dpi24
enable_dpi_lcd=1
display_default_lcd=1
extra_transpose_buffer=2
dpi_group=2
dpi_mode=87
dpi_output_format=0x7F216
hdmi_timings=480 0 26 16 10 640 0 25 10 15 0 0 0 60 0 32000000 1
#dtoverlay=waveshare-28dpi-3b-4b
#dtoverlay=waveshare-28dpi-3b
dtoverlay=waveshare-28dpi-4b

@ian57

yes ， I use that dtbo file from waveshare

I have tried that code ， same

The LCD can display OK ， but recalbox os can not enter Emulator

I think this is recalbox bug at DPI LCD，

[ian57]

@DRAgon734235 in the code you post, you use dpi18 and not dpi24 which is the right one

which one are you using?

[DRAgon734235]

@ian57

I have tried dpi18 and dpi24

they are same result

[ian57]

@DRAgon734235 quite strange... works well here...
perhaps it comes from the 7.2 beta ... so wait and see

Hello, i seen this post is quite old, but i have the same issue, even in recalbox latest version (8.11 or something).
But on recalbox latest version, i can rotate to 270 ad 90°,
but the screen stays on the logo screen like DRAgon734235's screen.
I think my screen is SPI but im unsure because im new to screen modes and all (but work like that with SPI and not works with DPI).

I looked all the tutorials to connect TFT screen to rpi4 and yet doesnt works and stays the same loading screen.

Sorry for bad english.

[proplayer2020]

Same issue on pi3... please help
or should I start new topic?

[proplayer2020]

I also think that the rpi doesn't detect the screen and just boot's up when i plug a TV hdmi.

@proplayer2020 hello
is your recalbox starts when connected to a hdmi tv ?
