  • LCD display for Raspberry PI

    I'm trying to add a 3.5" LCD display to my FR24 data feeder. I want to get a status screen going to indicate that its working correctly. I had to install a desktop version of Raspian to get the LCD working but now i don't know what to run to get the best status on a 3.5" screen. Has anyone done this before?

    Precisely what do you want to see displayed on the screen? What is "best status"?

      Thanks for the reply. Basically I just want a text display showing the info I would get by issuing service fr24feed status but updated once a minute or so.

          I'm trying to get this scaling correct. Tried all kinds of HDMI_MODE settings but can't get the FR24 status window to fill the screen.

              Glad to see another Canadian Feeder.
              I am located in Ontario, near Toront Pearson Airport CYYZ.
              Where are you located?

                      I got it to work satisfactorily for me to see at a glance if the feeder as working. But I added a couple of small BT keyboards to wake the displays and scroll the data.
