[PinG]

Please, help!
How i can set resolution - 800x480??

did you try to use h3disp as root user?

You can choose only PAL or NTSC for TV out. Neither of those offer 800x480 resolution.

I use "sudo h3disp -m 31", but after reboot - black screen or "no signal"...

Yeah, you configured an HDMI mode on a board without HDMI. Everything as expected. Maybe trying to understand jernej's answer and search through the forum first?

 

@Igor/@zador: maybe adding to 'known issues' that TV Out is not useable in any reasonable mode with sun8i? But I fear that won't prevent the board's target audience buying the Zero instead of One/Lite/PC to save some bucks and get the wrong device.

Refresh rate may be of importance too

640x480 60Hz for NTSC

720x576 50Hz for PAL

640x480 60Hz for NTSC

In h3disp no such ...

How set?
height = 480
width <= 800

How set?

height = 480

width <= 800

You can't. Forget about TV Out, it's not working as intended since driver is limited and no one will spend time on fixing this.

But why Orange Pi Zero can't use more resolution, if he can decode and view HD video officially?

[Ford Prefect]

Because there is no HDMI connector.

Because there is no HDMI connector.

But Orange Pi Zero haven't HDMI connector, and has support for HD video!

Where logic!??

That's just copy / paste marketing bullshit which you should not fall on it in the first place. Be happy: at least you didn't throw away a lot of money.
