    Raspberry Pi HDMI problems re. power supplies

    On a Raspberry Pi 3, I had a problem with a particular power supply (5V 3A - IC controller, all caps changed) which there is disk activity but no HDMI output; when I disconnected the Micro USB power cable and reconnected it with the power supply on, the problem did not occur.
    So I made a simple power-on delay switch (555 based) which turns on after about two seconds after the power supply starts up so I can avoid this problem in my particular installation.
    My first choice in quality Japanese electrolytics is Nippon Chemi-Con, which has been in business since 1931... the quality of electronics is dependent on the quality of the electrolytics.

    Have you tried adding
    Code:
    hdmi_force_hotplug=1
    or
    Code:
    hdmi_drive=2
    to the config.txt?

      I tried chaning the HDMI drive parameter but not the hot plug option.

        I have changed the hotplug option and is OK without the need to delay the DC.
