  • RE: Flickering display in vertical mode MM2.5.0 (Pi3ModelB)

    Hi

    Yes, I did found a solution. :thumbs_up:
    I consider it as a workaround but I’ll mark this thread as resolved.

    I setup a cron job (crontab -e) on the raspberry pi which is running the magic mirror:

    */30 6-22 * * * tvservice --preferred
    35 22 * * * tvservice --off
    55 5 * * * tvservice --preferred
    

    From 6 am til 10:30 pm it powers on the HDMI port with preferred settings. At 10:35 pm the HDMI display is switched off and switched on at 5:55 am.

    It avoids the issue described above but it is not the solution I had in mind at the beginning.

    I also ordered a banana pi M3 which is more powerfull (ARM cortex A7). Hopefully it will finally solve this issue.

    kind regards

  • Flickering display in vertical mode MM2.5.0 (Pi3ModelB)

    Hi

    Setup
    I installed the new MM 2.5.0 on a Pi 3 Model B.

    I try to run MM on a vertical mounted display. Therefor I changed my config as described here.
    I figured out that display_rotate only works together with the fake OpenGL driver. The rotation of the display didn’t worked for the “real” OpenGL driver.
    From my /boot/config.txt

    ...
    display_rotate=1
    avoid_warnings=1
    start_x=0
    
    dtoverlay=vc4-fkms-v3d
    

    Issue
    Now after 30 to 40 minutes the Display starts to flicker (like a distorted image overlay, see attached picture [1]).

    First I thought the reason is one of the modules I use. But the issue occurs also with the sample config of MM.

    What I found out so far:
    The temperature is 5-10 degrees Celsius higher than the “real” OpenGL driver.

    pi@raspberrypi:~ $ /opt/vc/bin/vcgencmd measure_temp
    temp=65.5'C
    

    And the CPU load is high.

    pi@raspberrypi:~ $ uptime
     21:14:25 up  2:28,  2 users,  load average: 3.98, 4.00, 3.99
    

    The issue doesn’t occur if I use the same OpenGL driver in horizontal orientation.

    Any hints or things to check?

    Kind regards
