screenres

Get and set screen resolutions

Dependencies

Install SDL1.2 first. For example, on Linux use the command:

sudo apt-get install libsdl1.2-dev

(Changing screen res doesn't work yet with SDL2 because it screenres would need to create a new window)

NOTE from https://www.raspberrypi.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=13789 : seg fault over SSH (framebuffer not accessible in SSH session). It must run directly from console.

Usage

Programmatic

$ npm install screenres --save

get

var sr = require('screenres');
console.log(sr.get()); // [1440, 900]

set

var sr = require('screenres');
sr.set(800, 600));

CLI

$ npm install -g screenres

help

$ screenres --help

get

$ screenres
1440x900

set

$ screenres 800 600

Platforms

Any platform supported by SDL1.2.
