Screen size

Sun Oct 26, 2025 5:34 pm

Hi,
with a PI400 I am using as monitor a TV,
but under PI OS I am not able to find the correct screen size,
and therefore I do not 'see' correctly the displayed info on the sides.
Thanks for your help

you can use wlr-randr to see what resolutions the TV supports.

after bootup, open a terminal and invoke
wlr-randr

outputs suppported resolutions....
might help.

you can set the resolution manually:
in /boot/cmdline.txt (add to the front/end of the line, NOT a new line)
-- IMPORTANT NOTE: for Bookworm and Trixie, the file is at /boot/firmware/cmdline.txt !!
video=HDMI-A-1:1024x768@60D
(or whatever resolution you want)

above is 1024 x 768 at 60Hz.
