The thing with DFB was at least a few years ago that it wasn't simple to test. You couldn't just compile it and then start, there was so much to configure before that and then you had to have some application that showed something meaningful, otherwise you only had garbage on the screen. But I remember that it had quite flexible "modes" so it shouldn't be impossible to tweak for our projectors 852x480 resolution. Just have to find that simple app that always works and can give some initial output before I dive into softdevice. :) -- Kids! Bringing about Armageddon can be dangerous.
