I checked your code and the result as below. The "mouse.device = /dev/input/event0" are correctly

Hello,
It seems that you are not using the original 7" touch screen; let's try with  /dev/input/mice.
Best regards,
Francesco

RE: PeppyMeter and moOde - fdealexa - 07-28-2022

Hello lhkp0480,
have you tryed to use:
"mouse.device = /dev/input/mice"
???
Best regards,
Francesco

RE: PeppyMeter and moOde - lhkp0480 - 08-05-2022

Hi Francesco,
I tried but nothing change then re-flash few time but at this step can't fine exactly your mention code

"""""""""^-1994 to go to row 1994 and modify the current content from:

Code:
"name \"ALSA default\"\n" . "device \"hw:" . $device . ",0\"\n", """""""""""""""""

I've done "sudo apt update" and expense SD card before stating.

The similar code in my playerlib.php file is: "name \"" . ALSA_DEFAULT . "\"\n";
May I continue modify this text to next step?

RE: PeppyMeter and moOde - fdealexa - 08-05-2022

Hi lhkp0480,
my suggestion is to follow the instruction in THIS GITHUB, using the option moOde 7.2.0 (only).
If, at the end, you still receive the error message:

Code:
"Traceback (most recent call last):
File "peppymeter.py", line 290, in <module>
  pm.init_display()
File "peppymeter.py", line 150, in init_display
  pygame.display.init()
pygame.error: Unable to open mouse"
 
please try this: in the
Code:
/home/pi/PeppyMeter/config.txt
instead of
Code:
mouse.device = /dev/input/event0

please try to modify in
Code:
mouse.device = /dev/input/mice

And let us know.
Best regards,
Francesco

RE: PeppyMeter and moOde - lhkp0480 - 08-06-2022

When I run 

Code:
cd /home/pi/PeppyMeter
sudo python3 peppymeter.py

The screen are displayed the VU meter when I run this code on Putty but after reboot the screen doesn't work. I try the code on putty again and it show the graphic a gain.

Seem the graphic doesn't fit my screen

Hello lhkp0480,
as reported on the PeppyMeter documentation, the available resolutions are:
Code:
UI is available in four resolutions 1280x400, 800x480, 480x320 and 320x240 pixels.

If you like: you can fill your display with static contents like I have done:

[attachment=2886]

To do that you have to modify one set of the basic meters of PeppyMeter; in my case I have modified the 
Code:
blue-2-fgr.png
blue-2-bgr.png
in the folder  "large" that fits better my display.

The modified contents are:
[attachment=2887]
[attachment=2888].

For the issue related to the screen that doesn't appear after reboot: it is normal: the PeppyMeter is a program that you have to run.
You can try to automatically start the program with a service or in other manner.
I did it with a program in Python and a service: please find them below:
[attachment=2889]
I hope this helps you.
In any case, please do not hesitate to ask me for any other question.
Best regards,
Francesco

Many thank for explanations but I don't know what need to do with your file to enable auto start of PeppyMeter. Could you guide me in detail?
I need to complete the automatic start before going to modify the background picture.

RE: PeppyMeter and moOde - fdealexa - 08-07-2022

Hello lhkp0480,
Let's try:

# Enable "Metadata File" (ON) in System Config - Local Services

# Copy the files FdA_AutoPeppy in to the PeppyMeter directory (/home/pi/PeppyMeter)

Then:
Code:
sudo cp /home/pi/PeppyMeter/fda_autopeppy.service /etc/systemd/system/
sudo chmod +111 /etc/systemd/system/fda_autopeppy.service
sudo systemctl daemon-reload
sudo systemctl enable fda_autopeppy.service
sudo systemctl start fda_autopeppy.service
# Reboot the system
The PeppyMeter will start at the first "play".
Let me know if any problem.

Best regards,
Francesco

RE: PeppyMeter and moOde - adolfotregosa - 08-18-2022

ok. To make peppymeter work WITH and AFTER camilladsp you do this:

No loopback , you don't need it and do not change anything in moodeaudio playerlib.php.

in /etc/asound.conf change slave.pcm to plughw:0,0 (so we keep moodeaudio magic working)

pcm.peppyalsa {
       type meter
       slave.pcm "plughw:0,0"
       scopes.0 peppyalsa
}
[attachment=2912]

in camilladsp tab, example:
configuration -> flat, default device NO, click SAVE at the top.
[attachment=2910]

enable status, expert mode and open pipeline editor.
[attachment=2911]

Change Playback device, device -> peppyalsa , click Files at the top left and save config to flat.yml

[attachment=2909]

reboot... it is working ?? yes it is
[attachment=2913]

you can then start peppymeter with your actual config

cd ~/PeppyMeter/
DISPLAY=:0 python3 peppymeter.py

@fdealexa  Thank you for your detailed install instructions.
