Tv info window popping up?

Thu Jan 31, 2013 6:01 pm

I have a curious question, I am working on something similar to screenly, when it switches between a still image to a video the tv displays its little box in the upper right corner that says "HDMI 1 resolution blah blah" the normal info box that most tvs turn on if you change the input or turn the tv on.

I get this if I uncomment: hdmi_drive=2, as it switches from DMT to HDMI but problem is DMT no HDMI audio, if I uncomment it so that my HDMI does have audio I get this issue. Different way to keep DMT or keep hdmi from resetting while retaining sound over hdmi??



Thanks for any help!

So more info:

I am switching from a browser to omxplayer playing a video much like the screenly app does but between these if I use HDMI (so i get hdmi sound) it seems to reset the hdmi connection giving me that standard resolution/port deal. Anyway to get that tied together so the pi does not loose hdmi connection between them?
