    Hello everyone , I’m new but I found a problem with a HDMI to VGA converter for raspberry pi b + , I do not get it working , I tried to enter the following command in the config.txt file, but without success :

    hdmi_force_hotplug = 1
    hdmi_group=2
    hdmi_mode=16
    hdmi_drive=2

    Maybe it will help: this is what I have in my /boot/config.txt:

    hdmi_group=1
hdmi_mode=0
sdtv_mode=2

    I use a HDMI to VGA converter too.

    Thanks mate , but he has not served me , the configuration that has earned me was:

    hdmi_force_hotplug=1
    hdmi_group=2
    hdmi_mode=35
    sdtv_mode=2
    sdtv_aspect=1
    hdmi_drive=2
    /////////////

    sdtv_aspect=1 for monitors 4:3
    sdtv_aspect=2 for monitors 14:9
    sdtv_aspect=3 for monitors 16:9

    Wow. Configuring HDMI output is more difficult than I thought. See this site for alle the options. It appears that I have a very small 4:3 VGA monitor (used only for RetroPie) and that you use a full blown 16:9 monitor w/ 1280×1024 pixels (hence hdmi_group=1 and hdmi_mode=35).
