Hi can anyone advise me with the kit i would need to create a 2 / 3 screen micro SD card video player? I currently have a tiny circuits tv and though it’s good it’s a bit small for what I want to achieve.
I know Adafruit make a screen with an SD card does it have the resolution to show video?
Any help would be great appreciated
Thank you 🙏

Re: Video player
What size displays are you looking to use?
There are a setups that use multiple TFTs like the Snake Eyes Bonnet for a Pi which can drive two 240x240 displays.
Todbot has a helpful post using various Adafruit devices to get multiple displays.
There is a upcoming product which is based on a Feather RP2040 that can drive DVI directly so you just need to add a microSD FeatherWing.

Hi sorry the screen size I’m looking for is 2 to 3 inches.
The simpler the set up the better as I’m a novice to this

Re: Video player
When you asked about:
What resolution do you require (minimum or ideal) is fine.
Are you asking for 2 or 3 screen, 2" to 3" screens or a 3:2 aspect ratio?create a 2 / 3 screen micro SD card video player
