Audiophonics RaspDAC mini LCD. How to update to moode 9? - paulliewallie - 01-05-2025
I want to update my audiophonics raspDAC mini LCD to moode 9 but it fails.
Does anyone know how to make it work?
Here is the link to make a raspdac mini LCD work with moode 8+, see "how to install":
https://github.com/audiophonics/RaspDacMinilcd/tree/moode?tab=readme-ov-file
I cant remember what the errors were during install but they were display and remote.
On that link, scroll to "troubleshoot" and below I have pasted each status output:

Check out https://moodeaudio.org/forum/showthread.php?tid=664&page=18, not tried it myself.

I have seen that but it's for the older OLED version.

@paulliewallie
The Audiophonics github repo you provided a link to hasn't been touched in 3 years.
I'm surprised it exists at all given that I get no hit when I use the Audiophonics website search engine for "moode" and they don't acknowledge the existence of moOde Audio in their list of "Open Source Solutions" I found somewhere on the same site.
Given this, i suspect you won't get any satisfaction if you follow the usual advice of "contact your vendor".
The code for the IR controller comes from the Raspberry Pi OS distro, so I'd think that would update. The code for the LCD driver, however, is custom. When I chased down the github repro for the fbpc-ili9341 component, I see this in the README
Quote:Feb 2024 Update
The era of fbcp-ili9341 has come to an end. Fbcp-ili9341 was built on top of the Raspberry Pi's VideoCore DispmanX API.
However, this API has been deprecated by the Raspberry Pi Foundation for a while now, and finally obsolete (=unavailable) on Raspberry Pi 5 and onwards.
The later Raspberry Pi distros no longer have DispmanX active by default even for Pi0-Pi4, but instead Raspberry Pi has moved over to the newer KMS driver compositor stack, which has a different abstraction for integrating SPI display drivers. Other people are developing SPI display drivers for the Pi that are compatible with the KMS stack. Head on to this Raspberry Pi forum thread to learn more.
This repository is good to be considered archived/stale, although I am not marking it Archived using the GitHub feature, since that feature apparently would also make the issue tracker read-only. Feel free to continue discussing issues on the tracker.
Sorry to be a Debbie Downer about this. Maybe you'll get lucky and find someone who has developed a work-around.
Regards,
Kent

Sorry, I forgot about the newer version.
Latest moode support is 8.1.2 from their start-up page.

Thank you to everyone who has posted here.
Audiophonics have replied to say they don't support Moode 9.
I will have to wait and see if someone writes on here with a work around. I've tried AI and it has not yet solved raspberry pi code faults I give it, maybe if it could actually read the system, it might fix it.

I did a bit more research to try and learn how this display works.
I came across this wording "python LUMA" like as in "kit1cat"s link above.
Does it mean anything or help anyone who understands it?

LCD Driver:
The LCD screen is driven via fbcp-ili9341 (which, in essence, copies the HDMI output to the SPI
port).
If you do not want to invoke a graphics server in your environment, other lighter implementations
are possible via Python with the LUMA & LUMA.LCD libraries
