Raspberry Pi Model B HDMI issue

robobosan
robobosan over 11 years ago

HI, I have a Raspberry Pi Model below with some issue on the HDMI. I followed the troubleshooting steps, but with no luck. It's still not displaying anything on the screen.
The hdmi cable seems to be fine, i tried connecting it with a different device and that worked.

Look like there is something wrong with the raspberry pi/hdmi port on the device. Is it?


Below is the troubleshooting step:

Thanks!

    Hello,

    I have a Pavilion 25xi monitor, it is fairly new and has a resolution of 1920 x 1080.

    Here are some things i tried again:

    - I removed the lines from the config.txt file, but then i get a "Check cable" dialog when booting the RPi.
    - I added "hdmi_safe=1" to the config.txt file, i was able to see very low resolution output on the screen for a few seconds. But then the screen turns black and stays that way.

    Some other commands which didn't work (tested them one by one):

    framebuffer_width=1920
    framebuffer_height=1080

    hdmi_force_hotplug=1

    config_hdmi_boost=4

    Hope to hear from you soon!
    Too bad i don't have another monitor to test it out.

    If it is a modern HDMI monitor then you should not have to modify any of the config files after imaging the SD card, it just works

     

    this is a video I produced setting up Raspbian

    btw, how are you modifying the config files ?, remote SSH, XWINDOW ?
