Yes, I have exactly the same behaviour. I hope this update can be fixed.
For me it's the first time to use 8.1 as well on a TV.

Dear people. I'm trying to get Jivelite to work on my 1080p HDMI TV.
I'm using a Raspberry Pi 4B 4GB and installed PiCoreplayer 8.1 and the
cable is in HDMI port 1 of the Pi.

I read up on the fora and the HDMI issues, the CEC and bitrate... It's
not getting easier with every new update/kernel if I understand
correctly.
Like even to get the 7" screen to work in for example libreelec 10 is
almost impossible and hardware deinterlaceing is still non existent on
the Pi 4.

Now I got stuck at this issue.

In the old day's I would place this in the command line to force 1080p
signal on the pi
hdmi_group=1
hdmi_mode=16
hdmi_ignore_edid=0xa580
disable_overscan=1
hdmi_force_hotplug=1
hdmi_ignore_cec_init=1
dtparam=audio=on

It still works fortunately, but to get the Jivelie working I have to
disable the
#dtparam=audio=on
#gpu_mem=16

and enable
dtoverlay=vc4-kms-v3d

Still no Jivelite.

I read it was an issue that happened in PiCorePlayer 8.0 and it should
work now.

I'm not sure what I missed. 
Does anybody have a 1080p 60hz forced signal on the HDMI port 1 with CEC
working with PiCoreplayer 8.1 on the Pi 4 and have audio on the TV over
HDMI with Jivelite working?
If so what are the simple steps, if there are any, to achieve this?

Big thanks!!!

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] LiFePO4wered/Pi+

2020-05-07 Thread Dutch87


I got word back for the support. The auto boot shutdown protection was
disabled by these commands using a raspbian lite build with the drivers
installed:

# lifepo4wered-cli set PI_BOOT_TO 0

# lifepo4wered-cli set CFG_WRITE 70

It now works.
I understand it takes the work of the developers here to actually
include the driver in the build.
And yeah ofcource we don't need a clean shutdown so maybe who cares...

If you ask me its solved.

Yeah, by me its also ontopic, since I wonder if anybody here has
experience using a different UPS on piCore player thats compatible with
this OS..

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] LiFePO4wered/Pi+

2020-05-05 Thread Dutch87


If it turns out, nobody ever got this driver working with piCoreplayer
maybe it's better for me to look for an alternative powersource... This
I2C so far is too challenging withouth a manual how to edit it.
So far I could only find this that shows how to read it
https://learn.adafruit.com/adafruits-raspberry-pi-lesson-4-gpio-setup/configuring-i2c

Anybody have any experience with piCore player and a UPS?

I'm looking for a lithium free/safe powered source. Anybody any thoughts
on regular battery powered situatiens or this board?

Indeed, it seems one can rewrite this in the firmware... but now im
looking into how to get this I2C acces done and what it is...
"The LiFePO4wered/Pi+™ supports I2C access from the host at the standard
speed of 100 kHz
maximum"

Thanks for looking and I'm afraid too... 
That why I hope maybe somebody has been before this point before but
with more knowledge and understanding to make it work...

[SlimDevices: Unix] LiFePO4wered/Pi+

2020-05-05 Thread Dutch87


Dear people.

Since some time I user of LMS and Picoreplayers troughout the house for
sonos like experience but better.
I recently wanted to use a headphone amp hat on a project and the only
one was the Pirate Audio with screen and buttons.
http://kiwi-electronics.nl/pim-482

A bit of an overkill but made me think of a totally different option. A
portable wifi pocket streamer. Thanks to this amazing tutorial I was
able to make it work
https://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?111502-Jivelite-on-a-Pirate-Audio-240x240-screen=971970=1#post971970

But now the battery part. I for some time really liked the LiFePO4 idea
since its more fire safe and durable. 
https://lifepo4wered.com/lifepo4wered-pi+.html

It came in today, but in the newer version it needs a boot veryfication
to stay powered for more then 5 minutes I found out the hard way and
installing the driver is not so simple for a tiny linux install
unfortunately...
"The reason is that the LiFePO4wered/Pi+ firmware includes a
timeout for the
boot sequence with a default length of 5 minutes. If the
LiFePO4wered/Pi+ is turned on and doesnt
get notified by the host daemon that the system has booted within 5
minutes, the power will be turned
off. "

So installing it this way is not possible.

I hope someone here has experience getting it to work with a
piCoreplayer setup?
Google only tagged people who had this in their signature but no
discussions I could find so fat concerning picore player or other
tinylinux distro's.

Thanks in advance!

p.s. Im a Linux newbie, but I try hard to get there to make it work
always

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Jivelite on a Pirate Audio 240x240 screen

2020-05-04 Thread Dutch87


Amazing work!!! Thanks so much, it works here as well :D.
As a rookie I also had to google how to make the button script but
figured it out :)
1. I had to ofcource login using putty with tc as name and piCore as
password
2. then cd /home/tc/
3. then vi sbpd-script.sh
4. copy paste the script
5. then :wq
6. then chmod +x /home/tc/sbpd-script.sh
and all the work in putty was done :)

Now my next steps are to make this player work with
https://github.com/xorbit/LiFePO4wered-Pi
And then design and print a case. Then I have my portable music player
:D
But for that Im going to do more google work later

Again super thanks for making this hat work with PiCorePlayer!!!

Thanks for all the work and support!!!

Is there any chance any chance a recent image will make it to
PINN/NOOBS?

sourceforge.net/projects/pinn/files/os/picore

pinn.mjh.nz

So far only older images compatible up to RasPi 3 (not +) are online...
I really really wish some day there will be such image... Thanks in
advance!!!
