[PROBLEM] 5 inch display still doesn't work

[donn1]

I bought one of those small 5 inch displays to hook up to the Raspberry Pi a little while back. The problem?  While the music is playing, there is no problem. But if I pause it, sometime later the Pi dies.  I have to cycle the power to bring it back up. Someone on this forum suggested using Firefox instead of Chrome.  No, still the same.  As long as it's playing, it's fine.  If I pause, it dies eventually.  The little display is cool to see what's playing, but I have to keep in disabled to keep the Pi running.

Am I the only one this happens to?

C'mon, you're going to have to reveal more than it's a 5 inch display. 

For example:

• What Pi? 
  
• What moOde release? 
  
• What display?
  
• What interface? 
  
• What was done to make the display work with moOde?
  
• What do you mean by "the Pi dies"? (Hint having the screen blank is one thing; not being to access the webUI or the SSH port is another.)
  

Inquiring minds want to know.

1. Pi 3 Model B Rev 1.2
2. Latest moode,  8.2.7
3. https://www.amazon.com/Hosyond-Display-8...r=8-1&th=1
4. HDMI interface
5. Plugged it in, Peripherals->Display->On
6. Dies as in dead, no screen, no webUI, no ssh

If you don't even see the Linux boot console scrolling on the screen after starting the Pi then it could be a power issue.

The Linux boot console appears fine.  I may have a solution.  I haven't figured out how to link to a forum post, but a user named "stefel" posted in March 2022 an alternative php file which displays a simpler UI.  So far this seems to be working fine without a system lockup, but I need to give it more time.  It may be a PI3 problem, so maybe I should upgrade to 5.
