Hello.

I can't  enable HDMI output for A64 on Orangepiwin platform - every time screen is blank (monitor not active).

Monitor connected over hdmi to vga adapter.

After linux kernel is loaded - monitor is alived.

 

I try some options in boot.scr withnout effect for u-boot:

video-mode=sunxi:1024x768-24@60,monitor=dvi,hpd=0,edid=1

video-mode=sunxi:1024x768-24@60,monitor=dvi,hpd=1,edid=1

video-mode=sunxi:1024x768-24@60,monitor=dvi,hpd=0,edid=0

and

setenv  console=tty0 hdmi.audio=EDID:0 disp.screen0_output_mode=EDID:1024x768p60

 

Need help.

To enable HDMI in U-Boot for any A64 board you have to first enable DE2 driver in config file and then somehow enable voltage regulator responsible for HDMI power (this is main reason why it's not currently supported). U-Boot doesn't have AXP803 driver. Probably easiest way would be to modify ATF.

but it worked with Armbian 5.83. it even did support UEFI GOP. there were issues with storage reads, when using uboot's UEFI so I updated... finding no HDMI at all. could someone point the latest version (minimal, without desktop) of Armbian, where HDMI support in uboot is still there?

HDMI on my platform (Orange Pi Win/ Win Plus) worked only after linux kernel is loaded... at version 5.83 too

@valantissue is more complicated than just some config option. Currently U-Boot doesn't support voltage regulators and rely on ATF to enable them (A64 has HDMI voltage supply pin). Logic in ATF will turn on all referenced voltage regulators, which is mostly fine. Issue is in word "mostly" - this logic will prevent ethernet PHY to power on correctly on OrangePi 3. Distros must decide what is lesser evil for time being, having no HDMI and ethernet in U-Boot or having no ethernet in Linux on OrangePi 3 (I didn't check what Armbian does exactly). Situation was discussed with maintainers and consensus is to implement voltage regulator driver in U-Boot, but that will take time. In the mean time, ATF could be updated with a improvement, which would temporary solve both situations, but I didn't find any patch for that yet.
