All right people, a new blog post is online, illustrating display issues that the VFD models (SLIMP3, SB1, SB2, SB3, Boom, Transporter) may have.
'https://joes-tech-blog.blogspot.com/2020/06/vacuum-fluorescent-displays-how-they.html ' (https://joes-tech-blog.blogspot.com/2020/06/vacuum-fluorescent-displays-how-they.html)I have created a Squeezebox Server plugin named DisplayTest (downloadable from GitHub) that has the sole purpose of turning the entire VFD (all pixels) on at the currently-set brightness level. This makes shadowing caused by burnt-in pixels very apparent and also helps identify filament starvation. A reference to the plugin can be found in the blog post. Enjoy, and let me know if you have any questions! PN me if your Boom / Classic / Transporter display has issues!
