 Last release for a while, barring the odd bug fix. Available at the
 usual place . This
 is the release notes:


- Added a default clock face that includes colons, am, pm and empty
background.
- Added an additional time display mode that uses four digits, a
flashing colon and a display of today's weather.
- Changed the initial configuration to use this clock face and
display the four-digit clock with weather.
- The default weather icons have also changed to *monochrome*.
These icons can be drawn against the blank background and the color can 
 be
adjusted to match the color of the clock face (via the *Weather*
 page).
- Where the GUI allows you to adjust colors the controls indicate
what will happen as you adjust the color
- There is an additional color control that both displays the
current color and provides an alternate way to modify it.
- The GUI is responsive to the state of the clock - it will hide
controls that aren't used for the current clock state.
- The clock can now display BMP files that have 1, 2, 4, 8, 16 or
24 bits per pixel. batch_convert_images.py has been modified to produce
files with these various bit depths.

Available at the usual place. This is the release notes:Added a default clock face that includes colons, am, pm and empty background.Added an additional time display mode that uses four digits, a flashing colon and a display of today's weather.Changed the initial configuration to use this clock face and display the four-digit clock with weather.The default weather icons have also changed to monochrome. These icons can be drawn against the blank background and the color can be adjusted to match the color of the clock face (via the Weather page).Where the GUI allows you to adjust colors the controls indicate what will happen as you adjust the colorThere is an additional color control that both displays the current color and provides an alternate way to modify it.The GUI is responsive to the state of the clock - it will hide controls that aren't used for the current clock state.The clock can now display BMP files that have 1, 2, 4, 8, 16 or 24 bits per pixel. batch_convert_images.py has been modified to produce files with these various bit depths.This is a piccie:On Saturday, February 10, 2024 at 2:39:34 PM UTC-5 Paul Andrews wrote:Tell me more about all this.

Re: [neonixie-l] Re: EleksTubeIPS replacement firmware

2024-02-27 Thread Nicholas Stock 
Hi Paul, I'm running the version prior to the latest and I've noticed on
two occasions the displays have been blank, the clock portal is still
responsive, but no display on the OLEDsa restart fixes it.

Cheers.

Nick

 Tell me more about all this. I would like to provide access to a
 movement sensor, so I’ve ordered a aqara motion sensor and a sonoff zigbee
 dongle. I’m a little confused about the options from there on though. e.g.
 ESPHome, zigbee2mqtt, HA etc. It seems like just polling an mqtt broker
 would be easiest from the perspective of getting data from the sensor but I
 would like this to be as general as possible given the memory restrictions
 that I have in the clock. Any guidance would be gratefully received.
