S:1920x1080p-50

S:1280x720p-60

V:640x480p-60

D:1280x720p-60

V:640x480p-60

1.what is S, D, V, p, i stand for?

2. how can i change resolution of hdmi output?

3. Any example source code for test hdmi. For instance, display something via hdmi?  

4. what is difference between "mode" and "modes" in "/sys/class/graphics/fb1/"              => done

My system: Linux kernel 3.0.35

dmesg | grep mxc_hdmi

mxc_sdc_fb mxc_sdc_fb.1: register mxc display driver hdmi

Thank you,

Hi,

tahi

4. what is difference between "mode" and "modes" in "/sys/class/graphics/fb1/"

modes shows the list of supported resolution. and mode provides the information for the current setup resolution.

You change the value in mode from different values of modes.

if xrandr command is available than it can also be used to change the output display.

"xrandr -s 1920x1080" sets output to 1080p

Regards

Saurabh
