        Hi Paul-,

        may be you can help me concerning problems with my touch screen: you are the opinion am experiencing driver problem: I looked at the driver provided by http://www.lcdwiki.com/7inch_HDMI_Display-H. Relevant part of driver provided shows as follow:

        I modified pCP config.txt according the settings I found in this code - no success. I looked at https://github.com/libts/tslib once more and seems to be clear, problem is not the calibration.
        I run ts_calibrate with ts_test and received following (example touched few points on screen):

        Code:
        tc@pCP:~$ sudo TSLIB_FBDEVICE=/dev/fb0 TSLIB_TSDEVICE=/dev/input/event0 /usr/loc
al/bin/ts_test

1675955033.950372:   1010    584      0
​
        I tried ts_test_mt and didn't receive any answer on console, crosshair disappeared after first touch and screen was irresponsive. Message on screen was : 1 touch contacts supported (driver).

        I will appreciate any help, hint , any idea.....
        Many thanks in advance

            The official raspberry pi display (DSI display) works seamlessly with picoreplayer and doesn't require any editing of files. It is certainly an easier solution than the HDMI screens.

                Official raspberry pi display is poor quality - upside down, viewing angles, colors etc. Waveshare LCD is far better, installation easy, but case is ugly and display expensive. I am struggling with rare problem (every touch resulted on the same place), several people experienced it, but no solution is published until now.

                    I don’t argue the quality difference, but then you have to deal with poor support from the hardware vendor. Have you ran some other test software to ensure you don’t have. Faulty screen?

                        Screen is described on site http://www.lcdwiki.com/7inch_HDMI_Display-H. Even chinese seller provides solid support.
                        Device is working absolutely flawlessly with Raspi Bullseye. No calibration needed, just basic settings. Windows 11 OK!!
                        I tried with Raspi 3B+ and Raspi 4B 2Gb. I tried with PicorePlayer 6.0, 6.1, 8.0, 8.2 (32bit and 64bit version). I installed TinyCore with Xorg and GUI, same problem: Every touch resulted on same place. I have suspicion that hdmi_timing setting plays some role: on TinyCore sometimes seems touch ended on different place.
                        So far: problem is related to TinyCore/PiCoreplayer environment.
                        Screen itself seems to be very good quality: nice colors, good viewing angles, clean connection for external source and Raspi, backlight regulation. pricing reasonable, delivered in two weeks...
                        I am not giving up...

                            The hdmi config would not have much to do with the touch configuration, as the touch is USB. The only thing that matters is that the touch library can figure out the display resolution

                                I do believe USB should be OK. RPI4 has USB 3.0 and USB 2, I tried b​​​​​oth. My suspicion is that touch is receiving wrong info about display. In the case mouse cursor is on, after next touch cursor is moving on the right bottom (lower) corner of screen, after first touch cursor regularly goes out (overscan?) of screen. Ts_calibrate shows following cordinates:

                                Code:
                                sudo TSLIB_FBDEVICE=/dev/fb0 TSLIB_TSDEVICE=/dev/input/event0 /usr/loc
al/bin/ts_calibrate
xres = 800, yres = 480
Took 1 samples...
Top left : X = 1024 Y = 600
Took 1 samples...
Top right : X = 1024 Y = 600
Took 1 samples...
Bot right : X = 1024 Y = 600
Took 1 samples...
Bot left : X = 1024 Y = 600
Took 1 samples...
Center : X = 1024 Y = 600
ts_calibrate: determinant is too small -- 0.000000
Calibration failed.
​​
                                Coordinates X,Y remains unchanged for every resolution and skin set. xres, yres values are set by default Pointercal file, change doesn't influence calibration result.

                                Many user with HDMI screen 1024x600 claimed that those screens are working only with 800x480 resolution properly. I got Waveshare HDMI C 1024x600 and it worked without any problem with 1024x600. VU meters got problem, it is discussed and solved in forum.

                                Why touch does not understand the screen is out of my abilities, I do not have any clue how to proceed, where to search answers.

                                    Chiming in here as well.
                                    Have the QDtech MPI1001 Touchscreen and get the same issue as you
                                    Code:
                                    tc@woonkamer:~$ sudo TSLIB_FBDEVICE=/dev/fb0 TSLIB_TSDEVICE=/dev/input/event0 /usr/local/bin/ts_calibrate
xres = 592, yres = 448
Took 1 samples...
Top left : X = 1280 Y =  800
Took 1 samples...
Top right : X = 1280 Y =  800
Took 1 samples...
Bot right : X = 1280 Y =  800
Took 1 samples...
Bot left : X = 1280 Y =  800
Took 1 samples...
Center : X = 1280 Y =  800

Calibration failed.

                                        Couple of threads on this. Combining for solution.
