Hello

i want to connect USB SCREEN TFT 5" (800x480) to revpi connect 4.

I didn't find a way to do so ? (HDMI Screen connected to HDMI to USB converter).

i m working on a project where i need to display a webapp on a screen for monitoring tought physical HDMI and a smaller screen for other purpose.

Any help please ?


My second question is: is it possible to manage multi screen ? do you have any options to do so ?

Hi @cerberus78,

To connect your USB TFT screen to the RevPi Connect 4, here are some recommendations:

• Check Compatibility: Ensure your USB screen supports Linux and install any required drivers (e.g., DisplayLink for USB screens).

• Avoid HDMI to USB Converters: These are usually for capturing video, not for output. Use a native USB or DSI screen instead.

• Multi-Screen Setup: Configure screens using xrandr or a similar tool. The RevPi supports one HDMI output; additional screens need to be USB or GPIO/DSI-based.

• Hardware Options: Consider native DSI/GPIO displays or compatible USB screens for multi-screen setups.

Let me know if you need further details!
