PiTFT Touch Scren For Kodi ! - philippematthie - 2015-02-26
Hello team, thank's for your great job...
A question, with no answer on the web.
!how to calibrate a Touch Screen with KODI !
Is it possible to calibrate with Raspbian, Ubuntu, but not for Kodi for Raspberry !
I have received a PiTft touch Screen form Adafruit, and update your distrib' KODI for Raspberry, with the Adafruit's Kernel. All is working fine, except the touch screen. Only a small square, on the up right, is sensible.
No way to calibrate the sensible area, enven with xorg.cof, or using Adafruit's Tools, tricks and tips !
Could you have a look to this issue. A lot of people are waiting for this stuf !.
Thank's.

Which distro are you using? OpenELEC, OSMC (Raspbmc), Xbian?

Hello, I installed raspbmc (raspbmc-final.img.gz) downloaded here : http://www.raspberrypi.org/downloads/
[edit] and this sd.img : http://download.raspbmc.com/downloads/bin/filesystem/prebuilt/raspbmc-final.img.gz
And I applied those tricks and tips : http://eim-robotics.com/sorted-fun/tutorials/setting-raspberry-pi/raspberry-pi-adafruit-pitft-touchscreen/
and here http://sernato.sk/2014/03/14/raspberry-pi-adafruit-pitft-xbmc/.
Then, today, I will apply those ones :http://www.engineering-diy.blogspot.ro/2015/01/raspberrypi-carpc-tutorial.html.
Peharps, if you now, where the calibration is seted in KODI, I will try to test.
thank's

UPDATE 1 : I tried with RaspBian, with a KODI installation using app-get, and the PiTFT worked well, but without the good touch area.
UPDATE 2 : I tried directly with the last KODI distribution, the 2015-02-02 image. And I had the same behaviour !!

I will try this later today.
RE: PiTFT Touch Scren For Kodi ! - philippematthie - 2015-03-01
I tried today with 7" EGalax touch screen and KODI 14.The X-Axis is Ok, but Y-Axis is inversed,
I'll see to calibrate it, or usb connection.
RE: PiTFT Touch Scren For Kodi ! - philippematthie - 2015-03-01
For E-Galax inverted Y_Axis, I solved the problem with this issue : http://engineeringdiy.freeforums.org/need-help-touch-screen-calibration-t68.html
by inverting wires #1 and #3 (Red and Green).
Hope this helps..
I'mwaiting for an anwser about our PiTFT problem ;-)
