I'm looking for this on the forum but I don't fund nothing
You have to go to the main page first, and use the search function from that location.
Then you'll find results like this: Can't find Jellyfin client

is this supposed to work on rpi4B? i have tried on mine and it doesnt work
It should work. Read this thread: Click!

Which LE version do you run? Can you make another screenshot on the top of the message?
-
LE uses Linux, and on Linux drivers are part of the kernel. So after changing hardware, the right driver should be automatically picked up from the kernel.
-
Kodi on Raspberry Pi OS is your best chance to activate your touch screen. So check the RPi forum: Click!
Because you don't describe your problem, and because I don't even know whether you run LE at all, I close this thread.

Use Raspberry Pi OS, not Raspbian. Installation should be easy: HOW-TO: Install Kodi on Raspberry Pi
-
I tried that and it didn't work
Kodi or autostarting anything?
-
is there a way to run LibreELEC within Raspbain OS
No, but you can autostart Kodi on it.
-
but the file has this in it boot=UUID=1510-0002 disk=UUID=1d2456fd-f3e0-4c17-b0ad-8bc237d5b0cf quiet
nothing is working
That's the correct default content. You have to add parameters that way: Click!
Here is a syntax description: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/fb/modedb.html
As you can see, cmdline.txt has a totally different syntax, compared to config.txt.
-
I still don't get it or understand
HDMI options go to cmdline.txt. Other options go to config.txt.
-
I allready added that to the config.txt, the cmdline.txt has this boot=UUID=1510-0002 disk=UUID=1d2456fd-f3e0-4c17-b0ad-8bc237d5b0cf quiet
It has no effect at config.txt. You have to append the resolution to the above line by using a specific syntax (search please).
Eventually you also have to remove the other options starting with hdmi_ from config.txt, and append them to the above line. I'm not familiar with the syntax of cmdline.txt.

I dont see /flash/cmdline.txt I do see it in the root, it has boot=UUID=1510-0002 disk=UUID=1d2456fd-f3e0-4c17-b0ad-8bc237d5b0cf quiet
I'm using LE 10.0.3, and I have /flash/cmdline.txt at the right spot. Do you really use LE? Not sure whether it works at your spot.
Use the search function from LE's main page to find the syntax. The needed resolution is described at LCD35-show:
Codehdmi_group=2 hdmi_mode=1 hdmi_mode=87 -
You can also view the overlays folder from SSH under /flash/overlays, but it's read-only at first.
Read here, how to make the /flash folder writable: Click!
Copy the file tft35a-overlay.dtb to /flash/overlays/tft35a.dtbo:
- cd /flash/overlays
- wget https://github.com/goodtft/LCD-show/raw/master/usr/tft35a-overlay.dtb
- mv tft35a-overlay.dtb tft35a.dtbo
After that you have to add some lines to /flash/config.txt:
Codehdmi_force_hotplug=1 dtparam=i2c_arm=on dtparam=spi=on enable_uart=1 dtoverlay=tft35a:rotate=90 hdmi_cvt 480 320 60 6 0 0 0 hdmi_drive=2Eventually you also have to change the resolution at /flash/cmdline.txt.
Reboot, and see what happens.
-
is it possible to add the tft35a.dtbo in the overlays folder
I was just asking that question on our internal LE channel. I doubt it's possible, but stay tuned.
-
When you read your microSD on a PC, have a look at the /LIBREELEC/overlays folder. It contains all supported touch screen drivers as .dtbo files. If your 7 inch works with one of those, you're lucky.
-
It's possible to copy the GitHub folder to LE. However, the problem is the install script LCD35-show at the end of the card.
That script refers to the driver tft35a.dtbo, which is not available on LE.
-
yes it came with a card on how to install the drivers but its for Raspbian OS, LCD-show but I want to use LibreELEC with the touchscreen
Maybe you should post the content of that card.
