OK so now the script /home/admin/config.scripts/blitz.lcd.sh can switch between lcd-hat of the RaspiBlitz and the HDMI output with:
blitz.lcd.sh hdmi on--> to witch to HDMIblitz.lcd.sh hdmi off--> to witch to LCD
there are also two new short commands for that script that can be used on the console:
hdmi--> to witch to HDMIlcd--> to witch to LCD
The setting is stable over an update/recovery with a fresh SD Card. It might take some minutes after running an update until it switches from LCD to HDMI in that process.
Also there is a way now to let a RaspiBlitz starting with HDMI (without a LCD hat) from the beginning by placing a file called hdmi on the boot section of the RaspiBlitz sd card before first boot ... just connect the sd card to your laptop and create that file.
