• HDMI overscan adjustment (user controlled re-scaling of the display) – see below for more info.

• CEC has now been re-enabled and the crash bug fixed.
• Bugfixes for two cases where the device could end up running both CPU cores at 100% indefinitely and drive up temperature if a kernel panic occurred (due to some unrelated issue) or during boot failure due to invalid SD images.

The HDMI overscan handling makes it possible to control downscaling and centering of the HDMI display output, through the FXI Configurator app. This can be used to view the entire screen image without any clipped edges also on TVs that don’t have “full scan” support or similar settings. For a while we believed that this could be handled through EDID (and it’s therefore been discussed as “the EDID issue” before) but in the end it had to be fixed in the Android display manager.

The Configurator app lets you specify x and y offsets (in pixels) from the top left corner of the screen and rescales the output in order to fit everything. (On my own old 720p TV the best settings are 31,18 which means that 1280×720 is rescaled to 1218×684). The scaling can be reset (disabled) by setting both offsets to 0.

This has not been extensively tested yet so there might still be some bugs lurking in there, please let us know if you find any!
