Configure an external display (x86/x86_64)
Since version 7.0, the configuration of external screens has been done from recalbox.conf
open the recalbox.conf file located in the folder:
/recalbox/share/system
Connected to your recalbox in ssh
In your ssh terminal type:
xrandr
Which gives you as a result the available video outputs and their resolutions. Example:
eDP-1 connected primary 1366x768+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 344mm x 193mm1366x768 60.06*+1360x768 59.80 59.961280x720 60.00 59.99 59.86 59.741024x768 60.04 60.00960x720 60.00928x696 60.05896x672 60.011024x576 59.95 59.96 59.90 59.82960x600 59.93 60.00VGA-1 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)HDMI-1 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)DP-1 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)
Once the output has been selected, enter it in this part of the recalbox.conf:
## Prefered external screen retrieved from ssh : xrandrsystem.externalscreen.prefered=HDMI-1## Force selected external screen to resolution ex : 1920x1080system.externalscreen.forceresolution=1920x1080
