RPi 2 and an SPI-based 4" LCD screen (and MAME)

<< < (2/3) > >>

vwalbridge:
Sorry, can't help you out with the Pi. I've never used one.

However, this was the exact screen I used:

HDMI input LCD controller board 4.3inch 480X272 AT043TN24 lcd Remotel control

MacGyver:
Thanks for the link, I searched for 2 hours and never even saw that one.  I was torn between the one you posted and a 5" SPI powered but HDMI driven one.  I picked the 5" because I could only find 1 guy that got his Pi to output at that low of a resolution and was worried that I wouldn't be up to the task with getting Raspian to work at 480x272 on HDMI.  It must be nice to use windows :P

It was also only $27 for the 5", wish me luck in about 2 weeks (when it gets here).  If I lose the entire "Marquee" I might be able to get a 5" in there. We'll see.

dgame:
I just got a 3.2" 320x240 SPI screen. I already had the Pi 2 although this is my first time actually using the Pi 2. So I am downloading NOOBS now and eventually I should be able to test MAME on the little TFT.

MacGyver:
I hope it plays at full speed for you.  If it does please let me know.
Here are some links I used to get up to speed, in no particular order (sorry):

The cupcade by adafruit uses a 2.8 inch 320 by 240 SPI display. I have one using their microSD image. I don't know the refresh rate, but it works great with advmame. Mine is in vertical mode. Games are clear and great color. Should fit your cabinet. But the image uses a RP model B.
