Hello,

Could this be installed on 2 pi zeros and have them monitor a pi4 that
is playing.

So maybe one shows by meters and one shows spectrum analyzer

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] ANNOUNCE: LMS Monitor 2020

2022-04-04 Thread amanker


I have trouble using LMS Monitor using along with 3.5 inch TFT.
everytime I start LMS Monitor. MY LCD goes white but OLED display
LMSMonitor. I want to use both LCD for jivelite screen and OLED for
LMSmonitor.

I tried using command sudo ./lmsmonitor --name "piCorePlayer" -D19 -R22
-C24 -o6 -x0x3c -B1
(For my LCD Data = 19, Reset=22 ChipSelect=24 as per LCDwiki)
This time both works. But LCD displays (scanline short of thing, and
reverse color like thing after every second)

How can I avoid conflicting LMS monitor with LCD screen?

I figured you were heavily involved in your work. That's why I didn't

Any tips to get this working?  I have a arduino spi o1, ssh o7 and a i2c
o6 working.

Alas my peepers dont work as well and 2.42 inch screen would be
desirable.

For the life of me i cannot get the ssh1309 working, both i2c or spi.  I
bought a second thinking i burned out the first one, using both 3.3 or
5v the screen will not turn on.

I can swap out with a smaller spi with the same pinout and will work
immediately.

I’ve check the resistors and it is setup for spi.

Btw the i2c device holds the i2c bus too long for my hifiberry and it
creates hifiberry issues, which is why i switched to spi devices.

apologies for the radio silence my new job is taking much of my time,
baby needs new shoes and all that...

implementation of addition OLED support inclusive grayscale 256x64
SSD1322 is almost there, driver 100% functional and blindingly fast

given this introduced a lot of layout change with the additional screen
real-estate and many modifications to the graphics library and OLED
drivers in general its been a bit of a mountain to climb

I had a couple of dead ends looking for better driver and graphics
support but in the end I just rolled my own - "bare-metal" - so I have
scorchingly fast routines - again the knock on effect was a lot of code
change to take advantage iuncluding back-porting where applicable

I also took advantage of the refactoring exercise to slim down the code
some and reduce complexity

so, that said the end is in sight

currently working on dynamic layout and then this'll be a wrap, one size
fits all - in a pinch :p

there are minimal new features

the only additional code is to support the latest weather api, climacell
rebranded to tomorrow.io and updated and extended their API offerings

more on that when the time comes

I'm down to ensuring all mods are performative and I've not introduced
any new nasties

I'm shooting for the end of month to release the update

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] ANNOUNCE: LMS Monitor 2020

2021-05-03 Thread shunte88


@luc apologies really slammed with work so trying to catch up a little

the operation you described is as expected

the sluggish VU's is down to a bug that has been resolved but has as of
yet not been deployed

use the downmix switch on the command as the single VU operates
correctly.

bit confused - you don't need jivelite for the monitor to run

the monitor is intended for light weight installs where you only have a
simple monochrome, for now, OLED

Jivelite is a full featured UI and has all and more functionality than
the monitor

Jivelite can display meters, and much prettier than those in the
monitor, technically less dynamic but most if not all won't care!

its either one or the other, but I don't think you'd need both ;)

running both you could definitely be hitting trouble with shared memory
as multiple processes would be locking and unlocking memory to snapshot
and analyze, deadlocks and conflicts definitely could bind and it could
get ugly fast. 

as part of the development for larger grayscale displays much of the
visualization code has been reworked to take advantage of the color
space as well as improving the memory and resources needed to visualize
the data.

the VU code got a 100% rewrite, the meters are now drawn rather than
rendered from a stored image.  They now have realistic physics too. 
There's a video link in an earlier post showing the new version in
action.

the code is blazing fast and operates really well with the large format
displays - SPI devices

I originally developed using very low level calls against the device,
porting those back to the graphics library I'm getting a bit of a
slowdown

I have pi4 and pi3 devices I test against along with several OLED
flavors, they should all function the same so while its nice to bump to
a pi4 its not necessary

new code much leaner and meaner so that shouldn't be happening!

I'm trying to find the time to close this out and deploy an update, bit
of a scramble with other commitments.

Watch this space though and day now!

Nice work! I just tested this morning, plug and play ready :-)
I have a couple of questions. 
My setup is a pi3B, wifi, picoreplayer, jivelite, official pi 7" display
and allo boss DAC 1.2
Generic 1.3" OLED I2C and I plugged them on sda/SCL/vcc/gnd GPIO hat
from the DAC.
I use this simple command line :
sudo /mnt/mmcblk0p2/tce/lmsmonitor --name groseille -v -m vu

Now, it seems a bit erratic, sometimes it will display the same as on
the screen (title track, time left...) and for unknown reasons it will
switch to VU meter with quite poor FPS, then back to track name... Maybe
there are some conflicts with shared memory access?
Is the lmsmonitor supposed to work without jivelite on? 
Should I use a pi4 for a better framerate?

Excellent!

Quick question, the aluminum case on the github readme file... did you
cnc that or buy, where did you get it from?

Second, I did get code working in my setup, using Pi OS to compile.  

I did spend more time reading the code and reviewing the server
interfaces.

I think passing in the ip/port is shortest path, as the port is not set
correctly if discovery does not complete.

I might be sending a pull request in a couple days, I would rather you
spend your time on the display code :D

Absolutely, I'll add it for the next release

Update on the next version:

I've spent a good bit of time optimizing the codebase, as part of the
SSD1322 implementation I've taken the route of reworking much of the
visualization processes.

VU meters as an example now constitute a single routine that covers
stereo VU, downmix, "mini" modes all scaled dynamically.  This removed
the need for the embedded bitmap data and adds color/grayscale to the
mix for OLED that support it.  And for the nerds the meter now feature
sprung/weighted needle physics.

Any chance we could get a command line parameter to pass in the LMS IP? 
Instead of auto-discovery?  My LMS is on a different subnet from the
wifi network.

If not ... I will setup a cross compiler and see about adding myself.

Hi, Unfortunately I did not. As others did mention there are some things
missing or have wrong versions.
Not having the time nor the knowledge, or the time to gain the

I just found this recently myself.
I'm working on getting the 256x64 grayscale solution working, it been
far too long and I want it closed out.

Working on the full scale 2 up VU I noticed the meter was none too
responsive - I see the wobble you described :mad:

I have a test bench that I used to record the data stream and the
resultant math

pushing those data through the test bench and the numbers from the
current algo don't match the recorded

If I feed the recorded calcs in the meters look good as expected


Code:

61,68,66,66,113,100
  SA   L:   61 R:   68
  dB   L:   66 R:   66
  XY   x:  113 y:  100
  XYd  x:   30 y:   18
  Retrieved line of length 22:
  114,115,66,66,103,168
  SA   L:  114 R:  115
  dB   L:   66 R:   66
  XY   x:  103 y:  168
  XYd  x:   31 y:   17
  Retrieved line of length 21:
  369,370,66,66,85,180
  SA   L:  369 R:  370

  XY   x:   85 y:  180
  XYd  x:   35 y:   15
  Retrieved line ...
  



XYd are the numbers from the current algo.

I don't remember changing this but something is definitely amiss.  Last
time I touched the code was to add damping on the needle - improved
"pseudo" mechanical physics

I'm digging through source control to see when this was modified and
I'll flip it back or reverse engineer the math.  Either way I'll drop a
new version as soon as that's been done.

AIO I'll be visiting shortly - bar style where introduced late 2020 and
may be the issue

Again as soon as I have something I'll post back

Hello everybody,
after a couple of days of full immersion in this project and after
having read all the messages and tried practically everything I have
read, I have to annoy you because some things just do not get there.

1. How do I increase the fluidity and sensitivity of the vu meter, when
I listen to a song, the needle barely moves even when Metallica is
playing.
2. I try to start picoreplayer with this in the tweaks:
/mnt/mmcblk0p2/tce/gomonitor -a2 -dw --latlon "45.464203, 9.189982" the
oled remains off, but if I use the same commands from the console, it
works but no whether. Also if I add -b with --nosplash the brightness is
lowered and the oled "wobbles"
3. I tried in every way to understand how to eliminate the percentage of
the volume on the screen because I use it fixed.

Also often when I use the -a or -a1s commands, the all info function
works only for the textual part and not the graphics one but when the
latter works, after restarting pcp, the graphics have no animation.

I use a 2.42 "128x64 oled diymore, modified I2C and the latest release

Hi there,

I found this solution, and I was wondering what would it take to get it
to work with a 16x2 display?

I've got one of these (
https://www.audiophonics.fr/en/network-audio-players-raspdac/audiophonics-raspdac-kit-diy-network-player-raspberry-pi-20-dac-sabre-v3-p-10384.html)

lying around from the time I played with volumio, but right now it is
catchin dust.

I see you've got plans to get the raspdac mini v1 16x2 display to work,
I believe this is the same display.
What can I do to get it to work?

Cheers,
Dennis

Finally found a stable working solution: 

*ES9023* DAC is working fine with LMSmonitor and SH1106 _ SSD1306 128x64
I2C-Modul. No more several start/stops needed on soft power off/on.

*Allo Boss *seems to interfere on I2C bus in combination, maybe all
DAC's with this *PCM5122* chip or driver, not tested. Strange behavior
after some time, even with my script somewhere in this threat.

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] ANNOUNCE: LMS Monitor 2020

2021-02-22 Thread shunte88


sounds like you've got everything setup correctly, fully describing the
startup sequence

you've repeated a couple of parameters, if they're switches they can
flip the functionality

simplifying you command string

make sure you don't have a monitor running, give it the kill command
twice to ensure 


Code:

sudo killall lmsmonitor
  sudo killall lmsmonitor
  sudo /mnt/mmcblk0p2/tce/lmsmonitor --name "piCorePlayer" -c -kdbzrix 
--visualize --meter "RN" -o3 -x0x3c -f7 --verbose



then play some music

you should see track details and then after a minute or so one of the
meter flavors, visualization displays for several minutes and the
sequence loops until the track ends

if you want track details and visualization all the time then use
the"all-in-one" mode


Code:

sudo killall lmsmonitor
  sudo killall lmsmonitor
  sudo /mnt/mmcblk0p2/tce/lmsmonitor --name "piCorePlayer" -c -kbzrix -aA1SA 
-o3 -x0x3c -f7 --verbose



are you running on the same device as the pCP install? 

you can use separate devices but this requires additional setup

if you are on a separate device then you can use the "egg"
visualizations, you can use these on a "standard" setup too 

hope that helps

That's a good point.  There is a glass version and a non-glass version.

I don't mind getting the non-glass version if there is a higher power
requirement for the glass.

Yes but you probably refer to display modules/boards that have a step-up
converter. If you just use the glass with its flex, then you need to
provide higher voltage to drive it.

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] ANNOUNCE: LMS Monitor 2020

2021-02-15 Thread LiFePO4


Thanks shunte88.

I'll skip gomonitor for now.  Just need the basics.

I gave up on the project that I initially ordered OLEDs for...  It was
just too bulky.

The OLED is too nice to let it sit around, so I was able to get it
working with iPeng.

So barebones A+ stream to iPeng playback.  lmsmonitor just has to sleep
for two minutes while I launch iPeng on the iPhone.  From there --name
iPhone works!

So A+ is LMS, iPhone is the DAC / playback.


On another note, for a future project, someone dormant posted this OLED
at the end of page 6.

It seems to work, but do you think it requires 12V?  I'm not quite sure.
Cheers.

gomonitor wraps the lmsmonitor call for ease of use
it really just ensures the environment is ready, kills any prior
versions that may be running and works out the name of your pCP setup
I deploy it as a helper or starter script for folks to use
if you're happy to roll your own, and from your drilling into the OLED
setup I don't see why not, then you don't need it
good luck with the RMA of the defective unit, you could try tooling on
the I2C interface to see if it registers and comes to life

Hi.

Is gomonitor still a thing?  Every attempt including latest build, it
parses a lmsmonitor string for me to use.  No way to run gomonitor, just
pushes me towards lmsmonitor.

I can successfully run lmsmonitor -o7 on every attempt at the console,
but once I copy and paste into tweaks I get the initial splash screen
then a matrix like effect continuously scrolling left.  Sometimes just
blank after the splash screen.

Note:  I'm not a heavy Squeezebox user, so I don't know the ins and outs
of Tweaks.  Tried with sudo and without.

Thxs.

Release 0.4.72 inclusive of updates to the binary has been uploaded to
the repo

'LMSMonitor 0.4.72' (https://github.com/shunte88/LMSMonitor)

This is a maintenance release for the most part

The intermittent memory reallocation abend has been resolved

Lots of minor tweaks -non-functional- tweaks with several areas of code
optimization performed to improve stability, memory, and processing

Minor addition to deactivate blinking colons in clock modes - spent too
much time obsessing over intermittent delays in screen update :mad:

this is indeed SPI device so -o7 is what you'd want and its fully
supported by the OLED library

you can override the SPI pins via the command line or wire with the SPI0
pi gpio mapping, see here:

https://pinout.xyz/pinout/spi

alternatively you can switch to the i2c interface


Code:

1 VCC Power positive (3.3~5V power input) [GPIO 3.3V]
  2 GND Ground [GPIO GND]
  4 DIN Data input [GPIO 2 (I2C Data)]
  5 CLK Clock signal input [GPIO 3 (I2C Clock)]



https://pinout.xyz/pinout/i2c

See the documentation for the device for any specifics around switch
interfaces

SPI is a faster interface to I2C so animation/meters may be smoother but
theres nothing specific in the monitor that takes advantage of either
interface

No luck on my first attempt.  If anyone can spot a misstep pls point
out:

I'm using Waveshare SH1106:
https://www.waveshare.com/1.3inch-oled-b.htm

Wiring:

1   VCC Power positive (3.3~5V power input) [GPIO 3.3V]
2   GND Ground [GPIO GND]
3   NC  NC
4   DIN Data input [GPIO 10 (MOSI)]

6   CS  Chip selection, low active [GPIO (CE0)]
7   D/C Command signal, low level for command, high level for data [GPIO
24]
8   RES Reset signal, low active [GPIO 25]

Each lmsmonitor I run with -o7.

I tried i2cdetect, but nothing shows up.  Not needed because I'm using
4-wire SPI?

ls /dev/spi shows correctly as does lsmod spi.

lmsmonitor runs and refreshes, but no display.  Maybe the wiring if off?

2021-01-30 Thread Steve Agnew


I've just tried running piCorePlayer 7.0 on the EVO-Sabre Dac. Out of
the box it worked fine after selecting the Audiophonics iSabre Q2M as
audio output. The volume control on the DAC works, as do the Volume Up
and Down buttons on the remote control - but of course there is nothing
being displayed on the right hand screen. I did try the DietPi image
from Audiophonics but that seems to expect to connect to LMS running on
the internal PI4 not the one I have on the network, so while it played
back music OK the right hand screen complained about not being able to
connect to LMS. I'd rather have a blank screen than one that complains,
so PCP it is.

I know that this is a WIP to have LMSMonitor running on the Sabre, just
wondering how you were getting on. And also to thank you and all the
other people who contribute to this amazing ecosystem.

what you've posted looks good - nothing out of the ordinary

did it lockup?

if so what did you see with the logged output?

was an exception thrown or did it appear to be working without issue?

I'm still trying to hit the perfect storm, conditions that throw an
abend; taking a good bit of time as the monitor utilizes threading -
basically lots of things running in parallel

I've ran under a traced session for 24 hours without hitting any
ugliness.

I'm currently thinking one thread steps on another so its a timing thing
which may or may not occur.  I have locks and timeouts where they make
sense but I'm reviewing to see if I've missed something.

I'll keep you posted with progress

Excellent choice of tunes BTW :cool:

-V on the monitor not squeeze

you need to run the monitor manually so you can observe and capture the
logging

I'm running diagnostics now inclusive memory checks
these things take time it needs to hit the issue when a combination of
events occurs
I've gone with a new tool so took a hit with the install but its cooking
now 

as soon as I have something I'll report back

if you could add the -V and run manually we'll see if that sheds any
light too

i have two devices running 24/7 with no ugliness, one runs with weather
and the other is pretty much default setting; there's another 3 setups
but they're in other parts of the house and not monitored - no
observable issues there though

a freeze after 10 minutes I've never seen

have you run with -V - what does the monitor "-think-" its doing?

I must admit i don't use airplay and I've definitely not put the monitor
through any stress testing with that setup

I'll beat on one of the the setups with airplay to see if that takes us
down any rabbit holes

NOTE THAT ITS NOT THAT THE SYSTEM TIME IS IN ERROR - THE DISPLAY HAS
FROZEN - DON'T CONFUSE SYSTEM DATE/TIME WITH THAT SHOWN BY AN
APPLICATION
some apps fake the time; I remember scoring 1's of points in a
single game in Windows solitaire one time as I was compiling code on the
crusty laptop I had 25+ years ago - the timer was application driven and
slowing the Windows 3.1 system -slowed- the timer - yes I am indeed an
old fart :eek:

if you don't specify -c no clock will be displayed, just track details
and/or visualization, audio or easter eggs

i'll get back to you as soon as I have some debug collected and
hopefully a solution

going to be a long evening running valgrind, a memory sniffer, on pCP is
a chore and a half :mad:

Just uploaded latest build, but after playing about 10 min with airplay
the clock display is already frozen!
No blinking ":" beetween hour and min...
It's very annoying. Please review code or suggest me what else to
check.
The:

tc@piCorePlayer:~$ date

gives me correct time but LMS clock display is locked at an old min

sounds like its hitting a resource issue - memory allocation or
something else that's causing an abend
on exit it should be clearing the screen so maybe it is literally
getting stuck
I've seen that type of behavior with the JSON scrape of weather and LMS
status/details
hits an invalid linked list or has a realloc error
i added additional safety code for the realloc and those changes are in
the current available build
the linked list issue I've seen 2-3 times only - i'll beef up the code
around the JSON scrape to see if that helps

10 minute NTP is a bit of an overkill, if your pi is drifting that
rapidly there's something very much amiss - once a week should be more
than sufficient

i can add checks to the astral routines to review and correct for drift
if that would help

The monitor freeze with the time stuck at random hour:min displayed.
Then only a reboot will resync it with actual time.

Nothing fancy for my use case.  I was always planning on a headless
setup, but noticed the Pirate Audio thread and thought that was pretty
cool.  But it's a bit heavy and I just want something a bit more simple.
Sort of like running a Linux GUI desktop versus a minimalist Linux
build.  I rather just focus on a iPeng solution if I want that much
functionality.  Of course preference for OLED.  So this is just icing,
not really planned.

Thanks for the suggestion, but this will be 100% custom build.  I'm
running power sensitive desktop RPi HATs and don't want wires sticking
out and short circuiting so only certain non-standard cases work for my
situation.  Since these are desktop HATs not meant for portable,  I have
to abstract as much as possible.  I'm also running a custom LiFePO4
battery since they provide the best audio performance, not a regular
battery.

I'm using something like this:

32976

Since I will be using the case sideways, I like to attach an OLED on the
side.  I plan to put the OLED outside the case with mounting holes.  The
128x32 would go well on the bottom, but there's no more room inside the
case to drill holes.  I only have room to drill holes on the clear
section.

32977

The OLED may work similarly the case above with "12.4" above the word
"Application" but I'm targeting the side of the case for now.

Since this is the first prototype, adjustments like replacing with a
128x32 later on might work out.  But for now the 128x64 will have to
do...  Crossing fingers

@LiFePO4

with the deskpi Pro I routed a channel then slotted the 128x32 into it,
had I been careful that should have been all I needed but ended up using
some damping material to hold it secure and reduce the light bleed too

easiest thing I've found for screw mounts is to solder the unit to
perf-board large enough such that it can contain any circuitry but also
with enough meat to drill fixing holes etc

you can also get fancy with 3D printing and/or CNC

hi @Aki7, what I meant was remove the -K or --powersave so you don't
trigger the power save on the OLED and stick with your script that does
your own power down.

I could have sworn you also asked about an API call you found in  the
code, at least I think you did

I reviewed the deployed script and couldn't find the call, and checking
through the thread I'm not seeing the question so I do think I need some
hot milk and a nap is likely overdue :o

apologies for any confusion

I'll keep picking at the power save and keep you posted should the veil
lift and I discover the issue

I ended up only ordering the two safe OOTB choices.

There were no mounting holes on the 128x32, so dealbreaker.

What do you mean with "until I do remove the argument from your call"

I think its just a typo but go for the 128x64 - the monitor fully
supports this screen dimension

you can get the 128x64 up to 2.4 inches (diagonal) - see the main
picture in the README
The 'zon has those devices at reasonable prices '128x64'
(https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07QB66TMH/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8=1)

If you do want the 128x32 this is the device I have in the deskpi '2x
128x32 for under $10'
(https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B079BN2J8V/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8=1)

the 128x32 for the deskpi is currently another project.  I'm looking at
popping a justBoom amp or IQAudio DAC into the mix soon, then a very
much cutdown monitor will be ported over with a simple scrolling
interface.
I have to open up the unit as the M.2 drive isn't being detected so I'm
swapping it out for a cheap Kingston SSD
It'll make for a solid portable system
Its a nice enclosure  for those interested; but it does have some rough
edges and its been a bit of a time-suck standing it up

note OOTB = Out Of The Box - works without issue

Okay, thanks.  I won't take any risks with the 1.5Inch and take a small
risk with a 128x32 (SSD1306):

https://www.waveshare.com/product/ai/0.91inch-oled-module.htm

So I will try to purchase these two OOTB:

0.96inch OLED (B) OLED 128×64 3-wire SPI, 4-wire SPI, I2C SSD1306

1.3inch OLED (B) OLED 128×64 3-wire SPI, 4-wire SPI, I2C SH1106

Along with this that there's a decent chance that it works in a future

The SSD1306 and SH1106 are fully supported and work OOTB

The grey scale and color aren't on the radar, although 1327 should be a
quick tack on top of the 1322 implementation

I've both of those devices but no plans for the color 128x128 - I'm
favoring a 240x240 version

There's a TODO section on the README and those have priority - its
finding the cycles to make that happen especially when I have to redo
the artwork too

I just got a couple of 128x32 that I've plumbed into a dekpiPro
enclosure so I'd like to add a simple text scroller for that setup too,
theres a git repo for that too - lots of fun routing and polishing
acrylic on top of writing the software.  Next step for this is to add a
DAC or amp - I've several pi0 hats that are candidates.

latest pushed to github inclusive binary updates
hopefully all bases are covered
have at it

I have to admit I don't think I've used the power button the entire time
I've run LMS - 13 years or so?
I actually added the clock and weather because my devices are always on

I can't actually remember the last time I power rolled the Touch, my
main system is on a power conditioner with a UPS so its unaffected by
brown outs etc.  Its been online 20? years at this point - although I
have taken the pre-amp offline just recently to review the caps and
replace a battery.

I don't turn the heat on in the winter as the bank of Linn power amps
keep the apartment toasty ;)
I'm personally keeping the National Grid afloat given I never power down
my systems :cool:

those last two statements may or may not be 100% factual :p

so scenario #1 you're starting with the streamer in power off state

that's is something I don't think I tested - logically shouldn't change
anything but obviously not the case

Thanks for the update.  It does look like a really exciting addition to
the pcp family if it's fully working.  The original stereo DAC is very
well reviewed (same one as in the volumio Primo I think), but this is
the new dual mono version, so even better :-)  If you can add in support
for the second screen, I do feel like we may have a transporter
replacement device.  Now, it's not cheap, but a) it's WAY less than the
transporter's were and b) it's in the same ball park as other decent
DACs plus Pi4 - add in the nice case as a lovely OLED and you could
almost convice yourself it's a bargain!

@Aki7 I've quite the collection of DAC's I upgrade at least one device

Not sure whats going on with your setup.

The monitor does not interact with the DAC in anyway shape or form, and
it doesn't care if a DAC is attached or not, nor if a hat, USB flavor,
audio over HDMI or the on-board audio is involved.

Pseudo Power Save is functioning on two of my test setups as well as
being tested against a Touch - they all function the same.

Its a soft power-off - power off through the webend and the OLED fades
to black.  Note this is not a hard power-off - unplugging the power on
the device - the warnings functionality implemented October/November
would trigger there.

Were simply reading the power attribute that the server publishes, not
too complex - its either a 1 (on) or 0 (off)

Hi

I've been looking at the Sabre-Evo Dac - looks like a great device and
possible modern replacement for a transporter with up to date codec
support.  I wondered if you'd made any progress on support for this
device?  I spoke to the Audiophonics and learned that PCP works, but no
support on the second display and I gather they're also pretty excited
about using LMS Monitor on the second screen.

Thanks

pete S

Hi shunte88,

thanks for the new version. Just tested the new powersave feature
without success. Screen stays on last state on "power off". When soft
powered on again screen stays "freezed". 

This is with attached DAC. Former tests showed different behavior when
lmsmonitor is operated with or without attached DAC. Tested with
Hifiberry and Allo Boss.

Do you have developed/tested with attached DAC? 

Aki

PS: I have found a workaround to clear the screen on power off. It's a
little strange script with 3 delayed starts of lmsmonitor on startup
(after killed state). If there is any interest, i will publish in
threat:

2021-01-10 Thread shunte88


the power save function has been added to the monitor and the repo
updated inclusive of a binary refresh

to initiate power save mode use the added command line switch


Code:

--powersave
  


alternatively provide the short *K* switch

if the player is powered of through the web UI or app the screen will
blank

hitting play or the power button will wake the display up

I think i got all the various edge case but if you find any missing
functionality or new nasties let me know

have at it!

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] ANNOUNCE: LMS Monitor 2020

2021-01-08 Thread shunte88


apologies I've been looking for a new job and this has consumed much of
time these last months

in no particular order

@Aki7 - power-off/sleep mode of the player does not trigger any
additional functionality.  I'll look at adding a configurable sleep mode
that will sleep in lockstep with the player.  The OLED effectively won't
draw much juice if its not being written to so a sleep mode would clear
and dim the screen to 0 and decrease the polling cycle to the device

@10matteo92li - if your running a raspdac mini with an LED display this
is not supported by the monitor - check out SLIMMER as if I remember
correctly it supports LED displays.
If you have an OLED fitted then check through this thread and on the
README for a howto

If you still have problems use the --verbose switch to turn on detailed
logging and post the output here and we'll try to move things forward

@davidscrat - is the power down option I just spoke to what you're
looking for?  If not let me know your thinking


And finally, there's a new binary and codebase are available on github. 


This includes several maintenance iterations, fixes, improved stability
and further removes library dependencies - the i2c lib install is no
longer required and you'll only need i2c-tools if you don't know the i2c
address of your device - spi wouldn't need any i2c footprint.

The SA modes got a rewrite to improve the display routines, while I had
the code under the knife I added the facility to specify how the
histograms are filled, solid, hollow, stripes, checkerboard, with and
without peak indication.  Note a huge change - just additional variety.

I'm running on pCP 7.0.0 without issue.  Note that I tried installation
on the 64bit picore but had limited success in getting a usable build -
so that's a WIP

I'll get the sleep version out over the next couple of days

If you were looking for something different to what I've described let
me know and we'll see if it'll mesh


I've also been tooling around with the Deskpi-Pro case, you'll find a
new repo on github that implements an OLED and fan control in a system
daemon.  I've plans to get a DAC setup in the case too, I've a couple of
Pi Zero DAC's that fit nicely.  I'll be a squeeze, ahem, fitting the
RCA's to the rear but I guess those with a mind to would favor a
headphone implementation instead.

The case is quite nicely put together but its been a bear getting USB
boot working, just about to try and remedy that with a 2nd M.2 drive. 
Details will be provided in the new repo.

one last thing:
One of my setups has an api provided o control the amp.  I've a script
that mutes and unmutes on power cycle.  If folks would be interested in
having that facility directly through the monitor let me know.

Again apologies for being MIA

hi @seekasoul
you won't need the dev package - you only need that to look for your i2c
address

you should be able to get going by following the install instructions
and skipping that step

configure pCP data sharing
do the wget step
then use the same command line as you used before to spin up the
monitor

i'll pull a 7.0.0 build together and check for any issues but hopefully
we're all set

let me know if you do hit snags, I have the code open today so I'm ready
to start any type of review

using I2C. The Oleds with 0ohm links to change between I1C and SPI
normally use the SSD1305 / SSD1309 series ICs. My 3.1"  Oled with
SSD1322 does not have any 0ohm links and cannot be converted to I2C

so I  just checked the SSD1322 specification  

The SOLOMON SYSTECH  SSD1322 SEMICONDUCTOR TECHNICAL DATA spec states:-


> 
> Selectable MCU Interfaces: 
> o8-bit 6800/8080-series parallel interface  
> o3/4-wire Serial Peripheral Interface 
> 
> 8.1.3MCU Serial Interface (4-wire SPI) 
> The  serial  interface  consists  of  serial  clock  SCLK,  serial  data
> SDIN,  D/C#,  CS#.  
> In  SPI  mode,  D0  acts  as  SCLK, D1 acts as SDIN. 
> For the unused data pins, D2 should be left open. The pins from D3 to
> D7, E and R/W# can be connected to an external ground. 
> 
> 8.1.4MCU Serial Interface (3-wire SPI) 
> The 3-wire serial interface consists of serial clock SCLK, serial data

PS  My lmsmonitor has been running all day, working great,  switching
between data and visualizations, on both sound files and streamed radio.

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] ANNOUNCE: LMS Monitor 2020

2020-10-21 Thread shunte88


the SSD1322 can operate in both SPI and IIC modes, moving a couple of 0R
resistors on the driver board sets the mode

I have SPI functional on a standalone device and I'm working to get the
code into the Adafruit library, actually code is in there but not tied
in 100%

GPIO configuration is already supported via the command line; both
hardware, out of the box SPI0/SPI1 GPIO mapping, and bit bashing will be
supported.  SPI0 is the canned configuration.  EVO DAC is not a standard
- details will be in the readme when the supported version its
released.

There are other drivers available that support many more devices and
would really make the monitor a flexible solution, the "c" equivalent of
luma. These are mostly Arduino libraries so there's a bit of work to
convert.

I flip-flop between the benefits/ease of implementation, thus far
Adafruit is winning out

The full 256x64 will be used for the SSD1322, which means a bit of
rework for all the canned graphics so that's a big hit - even more so if
gray scale is supported

I wrote a graphics scaler for the 12/24 clock mode but I'm a bit of a
pixel jockey and giving up control is tough - hence the move to more
programmatic graphics.  My RGB panel I had the ability to use SVG for
the graphics but not so lucky with "c" as no small tight libraries
available - and they don't talk to the Adafruit library either.

I have the EVO DAC sitting on my bench and given the investment that
needs to be addressed.

So slow going but on the horizon.
