How to Create Multiple Resolution of Emulators using Tizen Emulator Manager

Dear Friends

                         I am trying to create multiple resolution of Emulator using Tizen Emulator Command Line Option.  But I am unable to lanuch new Tizen Emulator for different resolution using command line option..

I have followed all the steps mentioned in the below links to create multiple Resolution of Emulator,

https://developer.tizen.org/help/index.jsp?topic=%2Forg.tizen.gettingstarted%2Fhtml%2Fdev_env%2Femulator_startup_options.htm

My Command Line Option to start Emulator

emulator-x86 --skin-args width=540 height=960 skin.path=C:/tizen-sdk/tools/emulator/skins/emul-540x960 --qemu-args -drive file=C:/Users/Aravinda.Shetty/AppData/Local/tizen-sdk-data/emulator-vms/vms/Tizenx86/emulimg-Tizenx86.x86,if=virtio,index=1 -boot c -append "console=ttyS0 video=uvesafb:ywrap,540x960-32@60 dpi=3160 ip=10.0.2.16::10.0.2.2:255.255.255.0::eth0:none 5" -serial file:C:/Users/Aravinda.Shetty/AppData/Local/tizen-sdk-data/emulator-vms/vms/Tizenx86/logs/emulator.log -m 512 -M maru-x86-machine -net nic,model=virtio,macaddr=70-71-bc-ba-96-2f -soundhw all -usb -device virtio-touchscreen-pci -vga maru -bios bios.bin -L C:/tizen-sdk/tools/emulator/data/bios -kernel C:/tizen-sdk/tools/emulator/data/kernel/bzImage.x86 -net user -rtc base=utc -drive file=C:/Users/Aravinda.Shetty/AppData/Local/tizen-sdk-data/emulator-vms/vms/Tizenx86/swap-Tizenx86.img if=virtio,index=2 -enable-gl -max-touch-point 6 –enable-kvm –device virtio-esm-pci

After running above commands, my command prompt returns without launching new Tizen emulator.. After running above command I am not getting any error message in command prompt..

Please let me know how to create different resolution of Emualtor using command line option or Using Emulator Manager ( In Emulator Manager i am seeing only single type of Resultion  - HD 720x1280 )..

 

Note : I am able to create Multiple resolution of Emulator in Tizen Web Simulator without any probelm.

Thanks

Aravinda

maybe the emulator only support the same resolution like the web simulator? Only 320x480, 400x800, 600x1024 and 720x1280... do you try it?

Currently, you can use the fixed one resolution, HD (720X1280), officially with Tizen emulator. In future, you could use custom resolutions, such as, 540X960.

Hi Lee, Thanks for your updates on Multiple resolution.. To test Multiple resolution, i am using Tizen Web Simulator, where i can do all type of display resolution setting using custom option.. Thanks Aravinda

If you click the configuration window icon at the upper right corner in Web simulator, you can see the configuration window. Using the configuration window, you can set a display resolution as one of fixed set or custom values.

On the SDK folder (i dont current way) I found 4 skins of the emulator The same resolution they fixed available on the Simulator. 320x480 400x800 600x1024 720x1280 So you can create on the Emulator-Manager a custom device :) I will test it tonight, I have to reinstall the SDK.

Hi Buettner, As you mentioned, Tizen emulator includes those set of "Phone-shape" skins for corresponding resolutions. However, all those resolutions except for HD are not officially supported by Tizen emulator, which means that there are no guarantees for correct working. By the way, you can see the full list which can be currently configured (not guaranteed to work well), if you run Emulator manager with an option "--inhouse" on console.

Hi ,

Can you please show me how to use " --inhouse " to create multiple resolution emulator ?

minkee lee

To run emulator-manager as inhouse mode, you can use "--experimental" option.

ex : emulator-manager --experimental 

Thank you.

Hello Minkee Lee,

i intend to create a wearable emulator 320x480 to test some app , but i can not success. Can we create another resolution than default in emulator manager ? if we can please help me( i already followed https://developer.tizen.org/dev-guide but it seems not working)

Thank so much

minkee lee

Hi.

Inhouse-mode is not available for wearable. It works only for mobile emulator now.

And launching wearable emulator with another resolution(except 320x320) is not guaranteed to work.

But you can try launching with another resolution by editing lauching argument like this.

   1) Run emulator with emulator-manager and open "emulator-manager.log"  in  "{tizen-sdk-data}/emulator/vms".

   2) Change launching argument. 

       - "--skin-args" "width={xxx}" "hieght={yyy}" ...

       - "video=LDVS-1:{xxx}x{yyy}...."

   3) Run emulator with "emulator-x86" in "{tizen-sdk}/tools/emulator/bin" using modified argument.

       - # ~/tizen-sdk/tools/emulator/bin/emulator-x86 "--skin-args" ..........

 

But I as mentioned above, this is not guaranteed to work.

Thanks.
