RE: AUDIOPHONICS RaspDAC Mini Kit - I-Sabre ES9038Q2M - kit1cat - 04-26-2020
Display and Remote up and running in moode 6.5. One question, is there any way to keep the display on when not playing a track? On start up it's shows info for a few seconds then goes blank, had the same problem with moode 5.5.

I am still struggling on
Using the test command you suggested, this is the current returned output:-
sudo /usr/bin/python /home/pi/oled/raspdac_oled_main.py
wlan0: error fetching interface information: Device not found
amixer: Unable to find simple control 'Digital',0
Exception - Main Module
(<type 'exceptions.IndexError'>, 'raspdac_oled_main.py', 178)
pi@moode:~/oled $ sudo /usr/bin/python /home/pi/oled/raspdac_oled_main.py
wlan0: error fetching interface information: Device not found
amixer: Unable to find simple control 'Digital',0

?????

It's weird, do u have set your dac in moOde ui and restart ?
Try this command after u do that:
Code:amixer sset -c 0 Digital unmute
Witch pi do you own ?
PS: Can you show the content of the /boot/config.txt file ?
@TookaFace
Hi,
I am going to start again, I have done so many alterations, I do not know how much cruft is left in the OS. I am going to restart with a new copy of Moode 6.4.2 and I will go through your process again!
I am using a Pi 3b+, and an Audiophonics ES9038Q2M, ( Kali version), with a Kali reclocker. (Mounted side by side with the Audiophonics Gpio bridge PCB). Moode is set to a HW volume control.
Moode audio works well and sounds really great.
This is current config.txt NOTE Set up at this time for Soekris 1021DAM R2R dac and not ES9038Q2M, (I was comparing the SQ of the two Dacs, and had not put the ES9038 back into the system).
AHHH! Just thought, when I use the 1021DAM, I set the Moode Audio volume control to NONE, as I have a hardware volume control set up on the Soekris dac module.
dtparam=spi=on
dtparam=i2c_arm=on
dtoverlay=rpi-dac
dtoverlay=pi3-disable-wifi
dtoverlay=pi3-disable-bt
I will be a few days away, until I get everything reinsatalled, hope it works this time!
thanks for your help so far
cheers

Code:
AHHH! Just thought, when I use the 1021DAM, I set the Moode Audio volume control to NONE, as I have a hardware volume control set up on the Soekris dac module.The error msg could be explain by this, as amixer can't find the control, it's maybe a difference between the 2 dac.
I have no idea if those script works with 1021DAM, maybe try with ES9038Q2M at first with hardware volume set to MPD
And dtoverlay=gpio-ir,gpio_pin=4 is missing from your /boot/config.txt

No one have any idea why this happens? Perhaps it's designed to work this way?

Yup, designed that way. You can edit some values in the python scripts to change the screen-on time but keep in mind burn-in with OLEDs.

Has anyone had any success running this board with a Raspberry Pi 4B? I can't get filters to stick and the gain drops to -32.00dB. Earlier Pi boards work flawlessly.

I have this setup with a Pi 4b 4gb, works perfectly, I don't use the oversampling filters though as I don't oversample & as the player is too far away from where I sit to see the oled screen I just use a stock MoOde image. Musically it's brilliant & I have no issues with the pi 4b.
If you tell me your oversampling settings I am happy to replicate them & see if I get the same results as you?

I have been using the Squeezelite renderer for the past few days, works great but unfortunately only the menu and volume keys work on the remote and no track info on the display. Any tips on how I can get the pause/play and mute keys working on the remote and track info on the display?

The Audiophonics screen script queries MPD for song info and commands, when you're using Squeezelite you're bypassing MPD so there's nothing to hook into. You could remap the remote commands to Squeezelite commands. As for the trackinfo, you should investigate hooking Squeezelite trackinfo into Moode's currenttrack.txt metadata file feature. Have a look at the code for the Pimoroni Pirate Audio display code for inspiration, I think they did a similar thing.
