Hi: I have an Ahanix d.vine mce601 case with VFD (samsung 2x16, parallel port). I'm trying to get the VFD working with mythtv 0.18 on fc3 but am running into some trouble with the character output. Some of the characters are not mapped correctly. For example, when the output should read 'Watch TV' I instead get '>,$Wetgl$TV$'. I may also have some problems with text scrolling (writing over itself). I've tried changing the delay parameters in LCDd.conf but this hasn't helped. Have tried different parallel port settings in BIOS (ECP, EPP etc).
I'm running lcd proc 0.4.5 and my LCDd.conf file is below. Anyone with a working Samsung VFD if you can share your LCDd.conf or mods to hd44780-charmap.h I'd appreciate. thanks, John [server] Driver=HD44780 Bind=127.0.0.1 Port=13666 ReportToSyslog=yes WaitTime=5 User=nobody ServerScreen=no Foreground=yes Heartbeat=off InitialHeartbeat=slash Backlight=open InitialBacklight=on BacklightBrightness=255 BacklightOffBrightness=0 [input] [HD44780] Port=0x378 ConnectionType=winamp Keypad=no Backlight=no Size=16x2 DelayMult=4 DelayBus=true _______________________________________________ mythtv-users mailing list [email protected] http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users
