With some great help from this forum I managed to set up a few rPi's and also an LMS, all based on piCorePlayer. All the players have 7" or 3,5" touch screens, but the server has none.
I thought it would be nice to have a small 16*2 or 20*4 LCD screen on the server case with the ability to show the current status of the server, amount of connected players, IP address, temperature, etc. etc. When looking for information I found plenty tutorials to setup an LCD on a 'regular' rPi installation, but I didn't manage to find it for the TinyCore version. I don't mind doing some research, but I need some starting points. Could you help me with that? Is LCDproc a right way to start? I found a nice tutorial here: https://www.rototron.info/lcdproc-tutorial-for-raspberry-pi/ Or would it be better to work with python, like here: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/RPLCD/0.3.0 And where could I retrieve the needed information? Because piCoreplayer is running entirely in RAM, what would be the right location to search for the current server-info? Sorry if this is much more difficult to answer than I think it is, but it surely would look nice.... :) Thanks in advance for your help!
