I am running Raspbian on my raspberry pi, and have it plugged in to a vga display via a converter. The display is way to zoomed in, and I wondered how to fix that.
When I run /opt/vc/bin/tvservice -s I see: state 0x12001a [HDMI CEA (1) RGB full 4:31, 640x480 @ 60Hz, progressive
When I run /opt/vc/bin/tvservice -m CEA I see: Group CEA has 1 modes: (prefer) mode 1: 640x480 @60Hz 4:3, clock:25MHz progressive
Thank you!
Read up on the /boot/config.txt file
Open it to edit
sudo nano /boot/config.txt
These are probably the options you are looking for, uncomment to use them:
framebuffer_width=1280
framebuffer_height=720
From the looks of things, there might be a lot of fiddling with the options that you have to do. For example try this:
hdmi_group=2
