20230517_eb620884 Release
Introduction
This is a stable release (from the master branch).
(the previous stable release was 21st December 2022)
New Features
This release has a major new feature, a "Select Profile" menu option that makes changing profile a lot easier. After selecting the option you are presented with a list of manufacturers and after choosing one you are then presented with all profiles for that manufacturer, including profiles for the other CPLD versions as well as the current CPLD.
Profiles that require a different CPLD firmware are prefixed by (BBC), (RGB) or (YUV) as appropriate.
Selecting a profile with no prefix will immediately switch to that profile
Selecting a profile with a prefix will reprogram the CPLD, reboot and select that profile.
There is also a recently used option that keeps a record of the last ten profiles selected.
Other Changes
Add support for c0pperdragon's new Commodore 64 VIC II plug in adapter which outputs a special 'lumacode' signal on the modulator Phono output that RGBtoHDMI can decode into bit perfect HDMI.
Auto detection for 2560x1440 monitors, (previously the Pi would not auto detect this resolution)
Some support for 4K monitors: The pi zeros don't support 4K @50/60Hz so by default RGBtoHDMI will select 1080p@50/60Hz as appropriate when connected to a 4K monitor. This is not ideal as the monitor will interpolate that to 4K resulting in soft edges. However there are two manual modes to try:
