Hello

[wilki3093]

Hi, so just got access to the forums (ty admins).  So I ran thru a couple of OS attempting to use a fresh new Pimoroni Pirate Radio 3 watt hat on a fresh new RaspPi Zero 2 W.  Currently with a 8GB SD card, I do plan to upgrading to a larger SD soon but not today.  So after many OS's I found mo0de and I have managed to muddle thru.  Let me say what's been done so far. 

Installed the moOde OS 
Ref: image_2024-02-23-moode-r839-arm64-lite.zip

Loaded the Pimoroni driver found under Audio Output in the Config menu.

Under Peripherals:
GPIO buttons "on"

Then edit the buttons the following way:
For the buttons:
Buttons 1- 4 on
button 1  -  GPIO - 5  - CMD: mpc,play
button 2  -  GPIO - 6  - CMD: mpc,stop
button 3  -  GPIO - 16 - CMD: mpc,volume, +7
button 4  -  GPIO - 24 - CMD: mpc,volume, -7


I selected 7 cause its less than 10 units which seemed fast, and more than 5.  
Logically, yes volume may never set to 100% with out one extra overflow bump 
but that's ok with me.

I am now looking for the code to enable the postage stamp screen on the pirate audio.

After being excited that they worked, then realized I would prefer 2 or more buttons.
I am thinking in the units final form 2 maybe more additional buttons. (Power & Source toggle)
(I'd prob tie these off to the header post with a spare wire.)

Thanks,
