10The 'video-mode' environment variable can be used to enable and configure
11some video drivers. The format matches the video= command-line option used
12for Linux:
13
14 video-mode=<driver>:<xres>x<yres>-<depth>@<freq><,option=string>
15
16 <driver> The video driver name, ignored by U-Boot
17 <xres> The X resolution (in pixels) to use.
18 <yres> The Y resolution (in pixels) to use.
19 <depth> The color depth (in bits) to use.
20 <freq> The frequency (in Hz) to use.
21 <options> A comma-separated list of device-specific options

a187559e 40The sunxi U-Boot driver supports the following video-mode options:
2dae800f 41
39920c81 42- monitor=[none|dvi|hdmi|lcd|vga|composite-*] - Select the video output to use
2dae800f
HG
43 none: Disable video output.
44 dvi/hdmi: Selects output over the hdmi connector with dvi resp. hdmi output
45 format, if edid is used the format is automatically selected.
46 lcd: Selects video output to a LCD screen.
39920c81
HG
47 vga: Selects video output over the VGA connector.
48 composite-pal/composite-ntsc/composite-pal-m/composite-pal-nc:
49 Selects composite video output, note the specified resolution is
50 ignored with composite video output.
2dae800f
HG
51 Defaults to monitor=dvi.
52
53- hpd=[0|1] - Enable use of the hdmi HotPlug Detect feature
54 0: Disabled. Configure dvi/hdmi output even if no cable is detected
49d2703d 55 1: Enabled. Fallback to the lcd / vga / none in that order (if available)
2dae800f
HG
56 Defaults to hpd=1.
57

58- hpd_delay=<int> - How long to wait for the hdmi HPD signal in milliseconds
59 When the monitor and the board power up at the same time, it may take some
60 time for the monitor to assert the HPD signal. This configures how long to
61 wait for the HPD signal before assuming no cable is connected.
62 Defaults to hpd_delay=500.
63
2dae800f
HG
64- edid=[0|1] - Enable use of DDC + EDID to get monitor info
65 0: Disabled.
66 1: Enabled. If valid EDID info was read from the monitor the EDID info will
67 overrides the xres, yres and refresh from the video-mode env. variable.
68 Defaults to edid=1.
69

HG
70- overscan_x/overscan_y=<int> - Set x/y overscan value
71 This configures a black border on the left and right resp. top and bottom
72 to deal with overscanning displays. Defaults to overscan_x=32 and
73 overscan_y=20 for composite monitors, 0 for other monitors.

75For example to always use the hdmi connector, even if no cable is inserted,
76using edid info when available and otherwise initalizing it at 1024x768@60Hz,
