Help with new 10.1" Display resolution

Help and Support Help
1

Hi everyone
I have just set up a new build with Volumio. I have the touchscreen working and audio output.
My problem right now seems to be the resolution on the monitor. I think it should be better than it is.
A lot of it is off screen and not visible.

I have no idea where to get/check the current settings for the resolution. If someone could point me in the right direction.

The setup I am using right now is as follows:

Rasp Pi 3B+
Hifiberry Digi2 Pro
Volumio v 3.546
Roadom 10.1" display 1024x600 (Amazon link below)

Thanks in advance.

Please post a picture showing the issue.

Also please connect to Volumio via SSH. Then execute

cat /boot/config.txt

and

cat /boot/userconfig.txt

and post the output.

Hi gvolt
I just got a chance to do what you suggested. The output for config.txt is:
//-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
initramfs volumio.initrd
gpu_mem=32
max_usb_current=1
dtparam=audio=on
audio_pwm_mode=2
dtparam=i2c_arm=on

disable_splash=1

hdmi_force_hotplug=1
force_eeprom_read=0

include userconfig.txt

Volumio i2s setting below: do not alter

dtoverlay=hifiberry-digi-pro
//---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The userconfig.txt is as follows:

Add your custom config.txt options to this file, which will be preserved during updates

//--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
An here is a pic of the screen:

There doesn’t appear to be anything in the userconfig.txt

Anyway, this is what I have. What do you think?

By the way, thank you for looking at this with me!!

Try adding the following lines to “/boot/userconfig.txt”:

framebuffer_width=1024
framebuffer_height=600
hdmi_cvt=1024 600 60 3 0 0 0
hdmi_group=2
hdmi_mode=87

Reboot required.

Last question.
The screen blanks out after about 10 minutes. How to you disable this so it stays on all the time?

Again, thank you so much for the help. I NEVER would have got this without your input.

On the Touch Display’s config page set “Screensaver Timeout” to 0 and click “Apply”.
