Hi Pete,
It looks like it's all there.

tc@pCP:~$ ls /etc/sysconfig/tcedir/optional/evo*

/etc/sysconfig/tcedir/optional/evosabre-py38-deps.tcz

tc@pCP:~$ more /etc/sysconfig/tcedir/onboot.lst

pcp.tcz
pcp-8.0.0-www.tcz
freetype.tcz
python3.8.tcz
pcp-lirc.tcz
evosabre-py38-deps.tcz
python3.8-pip.tcz
tc@pCP:~$

Hmm - what if you do

tce-load -i  /etc/sysconfig/tcedir/optional/evosabre-py38-deps.tcz

Does it say that it's already installed?

I just tried doing a new setup - downloaded a fresh copy of 8.0.0 and then followed the script and it all worked first time. Silly question - you did reboot after copy the .tcz? Else, it wouldn't be loaded.

It's installed:

tc@pCP:~$ tce-load -i  /etc/sysconfig/tcedir/optional/evosabre-py38-deps.tcz
evosabre-py38-deps is already installed!

I started with a fresh PcP 8 install and then installed the extensions and python script. The RPI was rebooted several times since setting up PcP and the extensions.

Yes, if it says it's installed, then it's rebooted. OK, so 2 plans. Firstly, maybe something's up with the .tcz I sent you. Maybe it's loading but it's not right. So, I'll email you just the .tcz. If that doesn't work, I'll build a new pcp8 again, and just post an image of the SD for you to download. That will only work on the same generation of Pi though - what model are you using - I assume you're just using the supplied Pi4?

I don't really understand why it's not working - as I said, I just did a new PCP 8.0.0 yesterday, installed the .tcz and the .py, and it just worked first time.

I don't think I purchased the RPIs from Audiophonics.

If you still struggle, I've created a backup of a clean pcp 8 image with the extensions and config already done which works on my Pi4B. Happy to share it.

Please

Thanks the image worked great. I still would like to understand why my manual installation couldn't find that module.

Yes, likewise would be good to know, but pleased it worked - you'll just have to change the IP address on the user command and that should be it I think.

Now you've got it working, please let me know if you have any questions. comments or suggestions.
