Hi,
I have a RPI3 with the DSI 7" touchscreen display which I would like to use to control nanoDLP and use the HDMI output with my projector.
I would like to know if someone else tryed this and how managed run startx in one display (DSI) and nanoDLP on the other (HDMI).
Thanks
Roger

I am trying the same thing. I plan on connecting the display using VGA GPIO adapter. I am still waiting on the VGA adapter to arrive. So far, I have tested the display in HDMI mode and with projector calibration images. It shows the image but it is zoomed in. I am logging into the raspi through my PC. However, once the VGA gets connected, it should be a localhost via the graphic interface through the touchscreen and a remote keyboard. I just hope that the processor is fast enough to handle everything, the projector / arduino and the X11 interface.

Running x server on rpi is very resource extensive. I suggest to use android compatible board and connect lcd to it.

I am trying to avoid the use of a networked connection to the pi. I will see how it performs with the x server. BTW, is there a command line interface to nanodlp? This could be useful to fire up print jobs.

Thiengod,
after some tries and errors, a few months ago, I managed to run X server on the touch display and use HDMI as output to my printer.
And it is working fine.
Thanks

RogerP, it would be nice if you could tell us how you did it. So far, I have my VGA666 board installed into the RPI. I can see the output and also startx, but without nanodlp. The moment nanodlp is started, it takes control of the GPIO port and the display goes blank.

I will take a look on my notes and write here what I have done, but Manojd I am not using a GPIO board. I bought the DSI display so it let the GPIO free for other uses.
