Out of the box experience on ESP32-WROVER-KIT

[arnoutdekimo]

The out of the box experience of following the README.md on the latest IDF is not ideal on the ESP32-WROVER-KIT.

The build succeeds, but some config settings are wrong, causing a messed up image.

I had to manually change in the config:

In LGL config:

• Maximum horizontal resolution 320
• Maximum vertical resolution 240 (default was 480 causing interlace issue)
• Swap 2 bytes of RGB565 color (otherwise colors are messed up)

In TFT display controller:

• Select predefined display: ESP-WROVER-KIT
• Display orientation: landscape

Given that this kit is probably the "default" for testing out the ESP32 LCD, I would imagine this was a bit more straightforward (at least some reference in the readme)

(For the rest pretty nice port!)

TBH, and no offense, that's not much config at all, there are a myriad of possible hardware combos. For example, the default is probably more common.

I'd say you experienced the closest to an IPhone unboxing possible in the MCU-dev world. :-)

Thank you @arnoutdekimo for the post. I agree that it was misleading (to me at least) to have a pre-defined display that required additional settings to work properly. You saved me a great deal of time. Much appreciated!
