Hi, thanks for the info.

IPS is still a tft technology and has some benefits & disadvantages over regular tft.

One being price, IPS being more expensive. What is the bet most screens on Aliexpress having IPS in the title are regular tft?

Read all about it here.



Below, is the standard configuration used for the tft display and is embedded within The Shutter Tester firmware.
It is not flashed to or held separately on the tft. The configuration does not remain on the tft after power-off.

It is obviously not possible to make changes to individual bit settings on an ad-hoc basis.

So replacement TFT arrived. Not an IPS!!! Hooray. All works with your standard firmware, so no need to keep the special you made for the IPS screen anymore. Cheers.
