I had those crashes at least one times a day when my player was
connected by WIFI. Even with a sheduled reboot every night.
Since I connected the player with LAN cable I didn't have any crash for
weeks even without sheduled rebooting. I'm glad that my piCorePlayer is
now running 24/7.

Thank you Greg. That's no way. I love pcp and the misbehaving of the
screen is a minor issue.

Hi Paul,
this display cannot be calibrated. I have no idea how to influence any
touchscreen library. There is also existing a 5" resistive touchscreen

The capacitive touch screen

can't be calibrated. Only the resistive can.

The screen is connected via the first HDMI port of the Raspberry and for
touch functionality it is also connected by USB.

Hello Paul,
My system hardware is listed as a footnote below my posting:
Raspberry Pi 4B 2GB, Pimoroni On/Off Shim, Allo DigiOne, Khadas Tone
Board, Waveshare 5" Capacitive Touch
The dmesg log shows a couple of lines with an error. This only occurs in
pcp 7 and not in the former versions. Can someone tell what is causing
this error?

I didn't use GPIO4 because Allo DigiOne seems to use it. Since that I
I have also an issue with the power overlays in piCorePlayer 7. I use
the Pimoroni on/off-shim and when I push the button to drive the system
down it is driving down but not cuts the power to the pi completely. I

I have piCorePlayer installed on Raspberry Pi 4 and the video output

Hello Greg,
seems that I have a lack of basic knowledge. Could you please tell me,
where I can find this overlay?

Hi Greg,
thank vou very much. I checked what you mentioned. In the extension
repository I didn't find any extension for fan control at the first
view. It is a rather large list and if the name of the extension doesn't
indicate the topic of fan control, it is hard to find. Anyway, I'm lucky

I prefer to do a backup of the sd card instead of saving different files
and copy them to a new installation. I tried this with Clonezilla, which
was not successful. Somehow it can't restore the partitions on a new sd

Thank you Paul, I'll check this on the next weekend since it's a very

have any ideas too. From my knowledge now, only the resistive touch
screen can be calibrated and not the capacitive, but will check.
Anyway, I love

I would like to come back to my posting #60.
After a reboot time (hour, minute) was not anymore there and boot took a
very long time as before. So the change of time server to my local
Fritzbox did not have the positive effect as I thougt before.
After some tests I found out the following: The

I changed the time server to my local Fritzbox and now everything is
going fine. Bootup is much faster, even with the USB sda1 mount and my
