Raspi 3+ with LibreElec 8.0.1 Screen Rotation

StephanLima · March 28, 2019 at 9:57 AM

Hi, i`ve got a problem. I have an Raspi 3 with HDMI to VGA Converter and an old Beamer which is hanging 180 degree flpped. I Can`t rotate the screen via Beamer. I got OpenElec before and everything works fine. So it`s not a hardware think.

Now i tried changing the config like before:

display_rotate = 1

I tried hdmi_rotate =1 but with the same results

Is there a solution?

Thanks for your help

Try it without the added spaces: display_rotate=1

Pi 3+ B with LibreElec Leia,

Rotate LCD display for the the 7" (element14.com) Raspberry plastic-cased Pi LCD display:

I took the card out of the Pi and used my laptop text editor (Apple Pro) that I used to flash the SSD to modify /System/config.txt (not RTF!) and added:

display_rotate=2

near the top of the file. Worked great! Pointing was translated from my mouse to correctly as a bonus. Prof. Bill
