I had (and still have) the same problem on the Orange Pi. I tried adding the resolution to /etc/X11/xorg.conf, but that didn't help. Any help is appreciated.

With Debian (made by Igorpec), to change video resolution you must do:

edit-> nano /boot/boot.cmd

# example:

# change example from

# disp.screen0_output_mode=1920x1080p60

# to

# disp.screen0_output_mode=1280x720p60

mkimage -C none -A arm -T script -d /boot/boot.cmd /boot/boot.scr

I have rewritten u-boot on SD-card with the changed parameters. ( screen0_output_mode = 9 )
for now, it works, but I think it is not worth considering that there are no acceleration in hardware for videos ecc.
