Initialize Display failed on new Raspberry Pi 4B Build Environment

Question

I'm using EW for target platform Raspberry Pi.

When i run app i get initialize display failed.

I couldnt find where the problem is and when i can change drm device node from card0 to card1.

Answer 1

Hello,

the DRM device node is detected automatically, there is no setting to choose card0 or card1.

In order to help you, let me ask you some questions:

• What display settings have you made in the configuration file ewconfig.h?
• Which displays are connected on DSI, HDMI0 and HDMI1?
• Do you see the console outputs of the boot sequence on the HDMI display?
• What display setting have you made in /boot/config.txt?

Best regards,

Manfred.

Hello,

is there something connected on DSI and/or HDMI1?

Do you see the console outputs during the boot sequence of the RasPi on the HDMI display?

What happens when you set EW_DISPLAY_USE_PREFERRED_MODE 1?

Best regards,

Manfred.

I think I resolve problem by modify a config.txt on Raspberry 4B we need to declare hdmi_group and hdmi_mode for each HDMI like on the picture below:

Right now everythink is ok
