Re: Noob needs help with display connection

OK - that clarifies things. I've got my shopping list organised and ordered all the bits.

Re: Noob needs help with display connection

Thanks Laurens. I guess this means I'd have to add an HDMI to VGA adapter AND a VGA cable into the mix as well. Suddenly the dream I had of bolting a PI on the back of the screen and having a neat, slimline solution is turning into a nightmare of cables, adapters and PCBs...

Oh dear...

Re: Noob needs help display connection

I had a nasty feeling that this was the case - thanks for confirming it.

Any ideas on a good source of hdmi driver boards?
