Default dimensions for development on TV

Issue

Currently the official design website indicates 5 types of screen densities.

These densities range from MDPI- XXHPDI.

I have also read in parts on the reference that there is also another identifier TVDPI

Does someone know the ratio difference between the the former and the latter?

• e.g. mdpi relates to 3 times XXHDPI
• mdpi relates to ? times TVDPI?

Solution

1 mdpi relates to 1.33 times tvdpi. Go here for more information.

From the docs:

If you find it necessary to provide tvdpi resources, you should size them at a factor of 1.33 times mdpi. For example, a 100px x 100px image for mdpi screens should be 133px x 133px for tvdpi.
