Yes, I assumed it must have worked for you, but I couldn't get the apt
commands to work in the current version. But I just checked and they
seem to be working now. Anyway, the Play Store version hasn't been
updated since September, 2020. The version on F-Droid was updated two
weeks ago.

I used the Play Store version and pkg could not find squeezelite, hence
the instruction to use apt.

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Android Squeezelite

2022-01-25 Thread RobbH


Many thanks for posting this! This is very good news for anyone who has
wanted to use an Android device as a player, without having access to
the Google Play Store. I'll stick with SB Player on my phone, but I also
have a few Android tablets and old phones that don't have access to the
Play Store, and this is just what they have needed. The catch is that
Termux only supports Android 7 and above, so some old devices will miss
out.

I just tried this on my current phone, and it works.

Now, a few quibbles.

The Termux readme at https://github.com/termux/termux-app#installation
says, > Termux and its plugins are no longer updated on Google Play Store due to
> android 10 issues and have been deprecated. The last version released
> for Android >= 7 was v0.101. It is highly recommended to not install
> Termux apps from Play Store any more.

Current options are to install from F-Droid of Github, and directions
are given at the URL posted above.

Additionally, there was a change in Termux package management in May of
2021. Existing installations of Termux that have not already updated to
the new package management mirrors since then will need to be updated
before they can install Squeezelite. Details are at
https://github.com/termux/termux-packages/wiki/Package-Management .

Also, Termux uses pkg commands instead of apt and apt-get. If the apt
commands don't work for you, try pkg update, followed by pkg install
squeezelite. That's what worked for me.

One more thing: I like Hacker's Keyboard, but I usually prefer AnySoft
keyboard with the SSH language pack. It also provides access to all ctrl
and alt key combinations. However, Termux provides access to most of the
extra keys you need, so it may not be necessary to switch away from your
preferred keyboard.

Enough quibbles! The important thing is that squeezelite is now
available for many Android devices.

I looked at those attached APKBUILD files again, and while functional,
I've learned a bit more about what the Alpine devs look for in a user
contributed package and if I submitted those as-is I'd be sent packing.
I really should clean those up some and re-post them.

Capacitive screen rely on moisture in the skin. Some screens have
difficulty with people with dry/cold skin also often older people. 

Check if this the problem by using as stylus (or gloves with special

It depends on what is causing it.

My guess is a sensitivity or touch threshold issue.  Running the ts_test
program should show you the touch data and then you have to decide.

Well that is one solution, but it should not be so.

Have you tried 'the hifiberry OS'
(https://www.hifiberry.com/hifiberryos/) on a sd card. that should
automatically recognise the board.

If that fails, then maybe consider your options for a replacement

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] PiCorePlayer on pi zero 2 - possible touch improvements?

2022-01-25 Thread andre1210


I used ts_calibrate for calibration. I observed that sometimes I had to
touch twice until accepted.
With ts_test_mt I could see that the calibration was very good. With
ts_test every touch was accepted.

In the jevelite menu it feels that the systems hangs sometimes for 0.5 -
1 seconds. 
If a touch is done in that time, it seems that the touch is seen as
"long" touch and the context menu opens.

I don't know with which parameter I should start changing for this
issue.
