Q: QuestionIs it recommended to buy something with this monitor to reduce the flicker mentioned in the description or anything else to protect from eye strain?

Asked 4 years ago by Question.

• A:Answer This is not an expensive or high quality monitor, and I wish that’s a question I would’ve asked myself before buying it. If you’re looking to buy this monitor for occasional or light-duty use you can probably get away without eye protection, but if you’re like me and bought it for work, school, or any scenario where you’ll be using it for multiple hours at once, yes definitely. The blue light is very harsh from this monitor and the colors are not warm at all. For me personally, the eye strain is noticeable almost immediately, and my eyes are in good shape I don’t wear glasses or anything. 30 minutes in and I have a headache, but again this is me personally. So if you’re looking to buy this monitor for serious/professional use, my answer to your question is 100% yes.

Q: QuestionWill it work with a raspberry pi. Also will I get sound from it. Thanks

Asked 4 years ago by Dave.

• A:Answer Not without changing configuration. The AOpen 20CH1Q "HD" resolution is actually 1366x768. I just did a fresh install of raspberry pi OS on a pi4, booted it up with the AOpen and a keyboard and mouse, got no video signal. Plugged the pi HDMI into my Dell U24 and I get a video signal. The Pi default resolution setting is "Monitor preferred resolution", but apparently whatever protocol it uses to determine that, the AOpen doesn't speak. I used the Dell u24 to run raspi-config and crank the pi resolution setting down to 640x480, then plugged it into the AOpen, and now I get a video signal. Cranked the resolution up to 1024x768, the highest setting the pi has that's less than 1366 x 768, and again no video signal. Currently trying to figure out how to make this work better.
