RE: Pirate Audio 240x240 cover display - rusconi - 03-07-2020 @juantronik Where do you source your audio for Moode? ie. Local Library, Internet radio? I have uploaded a new file to the tft-cover project on github at If you want to test it, follow the install instructions, but don't install the service. to test the script SSH into the RPI, then Code: cd /home/pi/tft-cover It's only been designed to work with the media library and internet radio. This is in it's early stages and I need feedback. IT has rudimentary scrolling for Artist, Album and Title and feedback on how this works, or is needed would be apptreciated Cheers Russ RE: Pirate Audio 240x240 cover display - juantronik - 03-08-2020 Hi Russ, I have the same experience Maartin has. But on local mp3s the text doesn`t scoll, it overlays several times til you can`t read the text anymore.

No more text: Has this reverted to the cover only script which I assume you stll have as a service? Just to confirm: The script with text is not fully integrated into the install and will only run by the command Quote:python3 moode-pirate.py. If the service is still installed you can stop it before running moode-pirate Quote:sudo service stop tft-cover (03-08-2020, 01:23 PM)juantronik Wrote: Hi Russ, OK. I'm not happy with the scrolling myself, and will find a better way I have some improvements in mind, based on some more pimorini libraries that are used in their mopidy scripts. Updates to follow in the next couple of days Russ RE: Pirate Audio 240x240 cover display - rusconi - 03-11-2020 @maartin and @juantronik I have made some enhancements to the cover display script, and i am hoping you can test tit on your pirate audio. Firstly I have created new github repository with a new name - TFT-MoodeCoverArt - and taken tft-cover offline. If you are willing to test, the instructions are in the readme file. but basically, if you already have tft-cover running: Quote:git clone https://github.com/rusconi/TFT-MoodeCoverArt.git to run: Quote:/home/pi/TFT-MoodeCoverArt/TFT-MoodeCoverArt.sh -s to stop: Quote:/home/pi/TFT-MoodeCoverArt/TFT-MoodeCoverArt.sh -q If tft-cover is running at boot: to stop temporarily: Quote:sudo systemctl stop tft-cover to disable over a reboot: Quote:sudo systemctl disable tft-cover.service @maartin Some improvement to coping with light background colours @juantronik some improvement to scrolling text I could not replicate the issue with text overlaying itself, but hopefully the scrolling changes will help As before, I haven't any issues on my ST7735, so hoping the pirateaudio is ok Thanks Russ RE: Pirate Audio 240x240 cover display - prithesh - 03-12-2020 (03-12-2020, 09:46 AM)Hi Ross thank you for the very detailed guide. Your previous script worked very well , however the new code will display more information.I installed as per your new post, however script will not work once the pi has rebooted.I can only get to work by : Wrote:it will not restart with : Code: /home/pi/TFT-MoodeCoverArt/tft_moode_coverart.sh -s when working the radio station logo is displayed with the correct Artist and Title, however the screen also shows the four push button displays which are non responsive these need to configured via gpio as directed in an earlier post. the rolling script on certain radio stations is hard to read. regards RE: Pirate Audio 240x240 cover display - rusconi - 03-12-2020 (03-12-2020, 11:51 AM)prithesh Wrote:(03-12-2020, 09:46 AM)Hi Ross thank you for the very detailed guide.

Thanks for finding that bug @maartin It was caused by the script not looking for a default image, which I have hopefully fixed. Updated script uploaded to github. I hope this fixes your RGB noise issue as well Russ RE: Pirate Audio 240x240 cover display - exviia - 03-13-2020 (03-12-2020, 11:57 PM)rusconi Wrote:(03-12-2020, 11:43 PM)exviia Wrote: Hello!!
