VGA Montitor

[sdetweil]

@aareben one of my systems has a VGA monitor, I also blank it, haven’t seen any issues.

[aareben]

@sdetweil do you have light bleed through when it’s blanked?

[sdetweil]

@aareben some. all.monitors have backlighting, so you get a glow, particularly at night.

[aareben]

@sdetweil if I lower the brightness and contrast to very low, will I still have glow?

[sdetweil]

@aareben yes

[aareben]

@sdetweil so then ill prob get an hdmi monitor

[sdetweil]

@aareben same glow there, unless u can actually power it off.

[aareben]

@sdetweil I’m pretty sure you can have the raspi turn on and off the screen through the hdmi. I will have to check on that.

[sdetweil]

@aareben none of my displays support that. so I blank them

I use:
Rpi3/rpi4 + hdmi/vga adapt + vga monitor
