Testing before build

Post by ajt011 » Fri Oct 11, 2019 7:52 am

I am trying to test my raspberry pi and minty pi image before soldering the board together incase there is an issue. When I test it using hdmi and a monitor, the image is upside down, scrolling up and jumbled. Is this because it is specifically made to work on the minty pi or am I doing something wrong? Fyi a normal retro pie image works. Sorry if this is a dumb question, I'm kinda new to raspberry pi.

Thanks,
Aaron

Yes the image is rotated for the mintyPi screen and the resolution is also changed to the parameters of the LCD which not all Tv's accept properly.

Don't contact me about obtaining my board files (as you will not get them). If my Boards or PCB Kits are sold out, they will be restocked as soon as I can get them and there is demand for them. You can join the mailing list on my Website to be notified when they are available.
