    Hello everybody,

    Today I have to tell you, that MPDisplay ++ is no longer one of the maintained plugins.
    This has the following reasons which I would like to explain only briefly:

    - Hardly time and many other things that need to be done besides the actual work
    - Interests have changed a bit.
    - No answer on demand from sebimuxx if the MP2 development continues or it is just not possible ... (guess he is out)
    - I switched to Kodi myself because MP1 is way too slow for me and I can still use the display on Frontview+.

    If someone wants to resume the work, or just want to make adjustments after an update from MP1 (in case something does not work anymore), please just let me know by PM.

    As long as the plugin is still functional and questions arise - please keep asking.
    I do not look in here so often, but then try to answer accordingly (if it is still necessary and not before someone has written something about the problem).

    Cheers,
    Richy

    Hi everybody,

    hopefully someone is reading here and may help.

    I installed new system (win 10 pro) and have an new TV with UHD resolution.
    Now i want mpdisplay++ on my second screen, 3,5 inch TFT, with 640x480 pixels.

    Unfortunately mpdisplay++ doesnt get the right resolution from the small tft. it give me an resolution from 1280x720 and that is way to small.
    Is there an hint to get things done?
    With my old setup (Win 7, TV with 1920x1080 and the 3,5 tft) everything worked.

    Best regards
