If you want to turn HDMI video into art, then you might be interested in my Pixel Wrangler project: https://github.com/osresearch/pixel-wrangler
Maybe you have an old Mac that you want to use as an HDMI monitor? The Pixel Wrangler can do that!
Vector displays are maybe not the best match for the Pixel Wrangler, although it can be made to work...
@th Curious if you think the Pixel Wrangler could drive a Mac Portable active matrix display? I have a broken Mac Portable that might make a good donor to put a RaspPi to run MiniVMac on.
@paulrickards 640x480x1 fits in the PixelWrangler frame buffer, so probably? The only question is how many IO pins are on the blue connector and do they need level shifting.
@paulrickards I’m also prototyping a Pi optimised version of the pixel wrangler than can use the DPI port instead of the HDMI and will have more IO available for weird panels.
