Hi everyone,
I have a TOP059TB1105A 5.9 inch LCD screen that I want to use as a monitor for my Raspberry Pi 3. The screen is vertical with a native resolution of 1080x1920 but I want to use it horizontally. I was able to get the screen working horizontally with Raspbian by changing the hdmi_timings value and display_rotate in config.txt.
However, when I started Kodi, it only got displayed at a portion of the screen, as shown here:
I looked into the log file of Kodi and it seems that although I rotated the screen, Kodi still only recognised the native solution of 1080x1920 and tried to display on the screen with 608x1080 resolution (same aspect ratio). The relevant part of the log file is posted below:
Is there anyway I could make Kodi detect the right resolution when I rotate the screen like this? Any help or suggestion would be very appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
