FYI - Adafruit has a dual SPI display card for Raspberry PIs called the animated eyes bonnet (https://www.adafruit.com/product/3356). I realize it would need to stack with an I2S DAC or digital AMP. It just might make wiring something like this a bit easier. Then again, I solder my own stuff together so my idea of "easier" may not be like everyone else's. :) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ mark f's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=5057 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=111502 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
