Raspberry Pi 5 Support

[nickverlinden]

Hi Rene,

I understand that the DSI displays don't work anymore on the pi5, i was wondering what the state of supported HDMI displays are. For a project i need to buy 4 pi's and could use the added processing power of the pi5 but i need hdmi display outputs.

Also, if i understand correctly, i2s input and output is working but not simultaneously on the pi 5? What about using 2 seperate peripherals, like I2S0 for input and I2S1 for output, would that work for instance?
I assume when using usb audio nothing changed and input and output at the same time is possible?

Kind regards,
Nick

HDMI displays should work with the RPi 5, as long they do not require a special configuration in config.txt, which worked with earlier RPi models. I say "should", because I cannot test each display. I only tested a PC monitor and a TV set. Both work at the fixed 1920x1080 pixels resolution with the RPi 5.

Also, if i understand correctly, i2s input and output is working but not simultaneously on the pi 5? What about using 2 seperate peripherals, like I2S0 for input and I2S1 for output, would that work for instance?

This won't work either, because I2S0 and I2S1 use the same group of GPIO pins. Only one device can be used at a time.

I assume when using usb audio nothing changed and input and output at the same time is possible?

Right. Rene

OK, thx Rene.

I will try to buy one to test, and will post my findings!

Kind regards,
