Same product as the 5"... only wider... so everything is here https://github.com/recalbox/recalbox-os/wiki/TFT5-Screen-HDMI-(EN)

@ian57 so I just make the code adjustments on the config.txt file by adding this line of code correct?

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

@creaturefactory Yep seems good. Please put "```" around the code to show it like that :

#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

It's easier to read

Ahh I see comments right sounds good thanks man have been searching all over the place and no good results now that I fee confident in this and especially changing the config text on RecalBox I'm going to purchase it to finish off my Arcade prototype.
