Android Auto does not fit the entire width of the screen at 720p resolution

Post by OG_Lauda »

Hello, I have a 5.5" FHD touchscreen with a resolution of 1980x1080. I changed the Android Auto resolution to 720p in the settings, and Android Auto displays in the corner, not across the entire screen. I want the AA resolution to be 720p, because at 1080p the app icons are too small. How can I solve this problem so that AA can be displayed across the entire screen in 720p?

Hello,
For Android Auto to display in full screen, the projection resolution and margins must match your screen resolution. Hudiy does not scale the projection video stream, mainly because doing so would significantly reduce image quality.

If you want to lower the Android Auto resolution, you can reduce the entire screen resolution to 720p using the Raspberry Pi OS Screen Configuration tool.

Alternatively, you can keep 1080p and increase the DPI value in main_configuration.json
