-
Ok so I have this issue and I can’t find a solution, I’m hoping someone can help me
I just got a 5 inch monitor form amazon brand is SunFounder
In the right side there is about an inch of the screen that doesn’t function, is just black space I tested the monitor in my mac and it Works just fine, but when I plug it into the raspberry pi (model B V1.2) running retropie (4.2 latest) I get that issue also the top and button have a small black border, when I plug it to my tv the image is okay and it display the images in the middle, I don't mind the borders in the TV but I want to make a portable unit
Here is the config.txt as well, can someone point me in the right direction ![3_1495400475623_IMG_1524.PNG](Uploading 100%) ![2_1495400475623_IMG_1523.JPG](Uploading 100%) ![1_1495400475623_FullSizeRender.jpg](Uploading 100%) ![0_1495400475623_997532B4-1161-48F4-A43C-8E825ABCD0F4.large.JPG](Uploading 100%)Thanks

Hi @wolfsoul
Can you try posting the boot.txt file again, it doesn't appear to have uploaded. Also can you try to complete the details listed in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first
EDIT: Sorry, just seen you have reposted the Boot file. Also, can you confirm what Pi you are using?
-
yes raspberry pi 3 model B v1.2

This is what I'm talking about just in case, the second picture is what is on the motherboard of the screen don't know if that helps the frand is "SunFounder" got it at amazon

A quick Google for 800x480 Pi display turned up this page:
The important bits are highlighted in Orange in their Boot config. Try it and let us know how you get on.
