Hi David

Sorry about that - as I said, I couldn't really test it. Something wrong with the setup script changes - I'll take a look in a mo.

In the meantime, you can get that missing file directly by

wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/peteS-UK/EvoSabre-DAC-PCP/main/lms_oled_mini__py3.py

in your home folder. You might need to do a

chmod +x ./lms_oled_mini__py3.py

Then do

pcp bu

Then give it a try

python3 ./lms_oled_mini_py3.py

dOH - Double sorry - just spotted it. There's a spelling mistake in the filename - it's got 2 underscores in its name mini__py3.p

python3 ./lms_oled_mini__py3.py

That'll be why the mv failed as well. Anyway - i'll fix that later, but for now just try as above with __ in the name,

Woop Woop. That's great news. What happened to make it work from your previous post?

I had to try and fiddle the font sizes, locations etc. by combining a couple of files, so likely things won't fit, be displayed right etc.. But, if the display is working, it's easy enough to move things around.

[davidscrat]

Reboot manually...
And screen works with songs!
Very reactive!
👍

Ah yes - as per the note on the original install, you need to reboot afterwards.

Great to hear it's working. Let me know how we need to tweak any layouts so we can get it sorted.

Ok some bugs,
Screen doesnt take new infos, timing variable.
It stops (same thing on the screen).
I have to launch code on ssh to debug
python3 ./lms_oled_mini__py3.py

If you add LOGFILE=Y to the command line, it'll dump the log out to evosabre.log. But, SSH will be easiest as you'll see any other info as well. Else, we'll need to take a look at the log files (in PCP, on the Main Page, look at Diagnostics, then Log)

So, you're saying that it'll work OK for a while, and then the screen will freeze after some variable time?

Or, are you saying 2 seperate things

Screen doesnt take new infos, timing variable.
It stops (same thing on the screen).


Would be good if we can see an error when it stops. The fact that the items stay on the screen says it's less likely to be the script crashing (since that would probably blank the screen vs maybe a buffer or something in the driver)
