What is the Clip+ Plus 's screen resolution?

(1/1)

touslyxid:
I'm finding it hard to find this information, anyone know what the resolution for the Clip+ (Plus) is? This is including the top yellow portion.

I can do with just the aspect ratio as well if nobody knows.

If I go by the pictures it might be: 128 x 66 pixels

Is that an accurate assessment^?

Edit: It seems to work really well, I can't believe I'm watching video on my clip+, you guys really do rock :D

nick_p:
There's only 128 x 64 effective pixels.

The yellow part is 16 pixels high, with a 2 pixel "dead" gap underneath, followed by 48 pixels of cyan.

I have an issue with video / pictures / doom / graphics of any kind. Pixels flicker and make it very difficult to see anything. In the simulator and in the manual, however, it looks fine. Is this a way to "fake" contrast?

If graphics were anything like how they are on the emulator, it would be great. But it's basically unusable.

I'd post a screendump, but USB has been disabled on the Clip+ due to random restarting or something of the sort. Is there a workaround for this? (Off topic, I know, but I'm curious...)

Yes, this is trying to fake greyscale by toggling pixels fast. However, this doesn't really work on slow OLED displays like the one on the clip, and results in garbage. On a player with an LCD it works okay.

There's no easy fix for this because currently those things are hardcoded to use greyscale emulation on monochrome players.

Pity, it would've otherwise been pretty revolutionary for the little clip. I bought it 4 days ago and it has amazed me thus far. If it did video, that would really be the icing on the cake. My electronics lecturer called me "platform agnostic" when he saw it :)
