Yet another OLED Driver! - superpat - 12-20-2018

HI

Thanks to ear5142 for the idea and info!

If you follow the Oled part of the HOW-TO do guides] AUDIOPHONICS RaspDAC Mini Kit - I-Sabre ES9038Q2M, you can make many SPI and i2c OLED display with ANY DAC. You do not need to add the modified kernel

You must edit the python file to suit your Oled. ( spi or 2ic, ssd(number) width height etc Your Oled has to be one that the controller chip is supported by the Luma.oled library

I tried it with a new installation Moode 4.4 and a 3.1" 256 x 64 SSD1322 spi Oled. It worked fine once I got the wiring connected to the correct pins, (I need new spectacles!).

I am using a DAM1021 DAC. i2s connection only.

The TT fonts are especially nice looking

Here is a picture of it in use

cheers

Hi. Have you actually used it with an oled with i2c interface? Do you know which changes to make to the page file to make it work using a i2c interface?
I tried it but I could not figure out which parameters to use with i2c oled.
I think this is the part of the original page file that need to be changed:

Code:
from luma.core.interface.serial import spi

from luma.core.render import canvas

from luma.oled.device import ssd1306

import RPi.GPIO as GPIO

serial = spi(port=0, device=0, gpio_DC=27, gpio_RST=24)

device = ssd1306(serial, rotate=2)

How do you change it for a ssd1306 128x64 oled with i2c interface?

Hi. It worked with these parameters. I can confirm that we have now another driver for OLED displays using spi or i2c interface. It uses luma drivers.

Hi

I already told you it all worked!

I am sorry I did not include this reply in my post, i2c display working by ear5142:-

Merry Christmas everyone.

RE: Yet another OLED Driver! - DRONE7 - 01-27-2019

Looking for some advice for this driver/display...
I have a 128x64 sh1106 oled and have configured as per the example...adjusted for my display

Code:
#from luma.core.interface.serial import spi

from luma.core.interface.serial import i2c

from luma.core.render import canvas

from luma.oled.device import sh1106

import RPi.GPIO as GPIO

#serial = spi(port=0, device=0, gpio_DC=27, gpio_RST=24)

serial = i2c(port=1, address=0x3d)

device = sh1106(serial, rotate=0)

the display works as shown in attached image so basic configuration is correct...

However, I am no coder so other parts of the code are giving me trouble...
I use a USB dac so the current code throws this error...when I run python moode_oled_1.54_spi_audiophonics.py with no audio playing... as the device it wants is the i2s or spdif of the audiophonics dac.....

Code:
amixer: Unable to find simple control 'I2S/SPDIF Select',0

This repeats for some time then the display blanks and this error appears...

Code:
(<class 'luma.core.error.DeviceNotFoundError'>, 'moode_oled_1.54_spi_audiophonics.py', 444)

If I start the python code and begin play from MoOde the oled shows briefly some song info then blanks with this error

Code:
(<type 'exceptions.IOError'>, 'moode_oled_1.54_spi_audiophonics.py', 275)

I know the errors reference the lines from the code but have no idea what to change...
Any help would be appreciated, thanks
