Screen: Fuzzy & Pixelated

[jblayfield]

Hey Guys!
My screen looks kind of pixelated and fuzzy...
I'm using the Adafruit screen and have already checked my soldering points.
Does anyone know possible reasons for this?
The screen menu looks completely clear but for example I cant read the text when it is booting up...

Is your screen the 640×480 one or the 320x240 ? if it's the 640 one set your rez in the software to 640 if it's the 320 I'm pretty sure that's normal being a lower rez screen.

Thanks for your response, how can I change the resolution?

From my understanding you have to edit your software's setup file on your SD card to>
framebuffer_width=640
framebuffer_height=480

Yer I got my screen working finally, a low res one and to say I was underwhelmed is an understatement! Very pixely and hard to read, but this is what it is!
I've always planned on building a version 2 once this is compete so will look at getting a better screen next time.

I edited the software as you said, but it didnt change, i guess it even got worse

My guess is it's a 320x240 and thats the best you'll get out of it.
