Having some minor issues: - after installing Jivelite the default in web browser tweaks was 180 degree screen rotation; screen was correctly oriented but touch was upside down. Changing to 0 resolves the touch being upside down and doesn't change screen so working but seems odd. - Power off button (or what I assume is supposed to be power off) in upper left corner of touch screen doesn't work - Everytime Jivelite starts it's in some foreign language, changing to English doesn't seem to persist in settings.

Re: [SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] Touchscreen display for piCorePlayer
The Hyperpixel 4 is an excellent touchscreen, capacitive touch is definitely the way to go, vs resistive. I found it a bit too small for JiveLite, but it works well with a custom app with larger touch areas. The 5" OSOYOO touchscreen works nicely for pCP/JiveLite. It does need a more stable stand, as it tips easily.

Re: [SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] Touchscreen display for piCorePlayer
The hyper pixel uses the dpi interface, so it uses a bunch of pins on the interface. I have not checked if it consumes pins needed by the Dac. A USB Dac would work fine. There are many waveshare options, but every screen is different, and uses different drivers. Its hard to keep track of them ..and then there are different rev levels on the boards that use different drivers too. The specific waveshare you linked, you need to check pinouts on the heard for the touch function .. and need to research the needed touch driver. Have you looked at the waveshare threads on the forum? piCorePlayer a small player for the Raspberry Pi in RAM.

(https://www.amazon.com/HDMI-LCD-Resolution-Resistive-Screen/dp/B07P5H2315) except it looks like it uses the header just for the touch function and requires the monitor to connect to the rPI's HDMI port.

Obviously a driver may be required but the base kernel USB stack should detect a device trying to registered even if it has no corresponding driver. There is a 4-pin TE "picoblade" connector and also a micro-usb connector, either of which should be connected to the Pi's USB port. You can see it shown at 12:30 in this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_HUt6tRReEQ I see no log messages of any kind. I talked to the video's author and he suggested (common issue) to ensure the uPerfect is getting sufficient power. I tried powering it directly from a 3A power supply instead of the PI's GPIO pins (which uPerfect said would work) and there was no change. uPerfect are utterly useless, won't respond, won't honor warranty.

Re: [SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] Touchscreen display for piCorePlayer
I have been thinking of doing something similar, so I bought a Amazon Fire 8" tablet I didn't need on Black Friday for, I think about $60USD (currently about 90). You can currently get the 7" one for about $50. The Fire tablets are inexpensive in part because Amazon is selling you an Amazon promotion and advertisement machine. You can (I have) use the XDA Developers "Fire Toolkit" to "de-amazon" the tablet and return it close to stock android. Installed the Material apk from F-Droid and I have it laying around in my main listening area to use as a squeezebox UI. You can modify it via developer options to stay awake, or, I believe there are non root options to have a "tap or swipe to wake" out there... My thought was to have it in a box with a pi, build the box to allow the charger micro USB to be inserted in the side (maybe a right angle adaptor). The only other challenge is if you leave it always on, or have a screensaver with tap or swipe to wake it. I haven't really tried to think that through yet as I haven't started the project, especially with rpi's in short supply. I think Ideally I would want it to remain on while playing, screensaver otherwise. Haven't looked into how to do that. The nice thing is the Material interface is wonderful (thanks again Craig!) and you also have a fully functioning tablet on the wall to be able to pop up weather, or whatever in addition to your sb control.

Re: [SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] Touchscreen display for piCorePlayer
There are many that work, but the drivers are completely manual, and support is poor. But if you are willing to do some tinkering, then there are provisions in pCP for custom setup routines for offbrand screens. What size screen do you want? I have a setup with https://shop.pimoroni.com/products/hyperpixel-4?variant=12569485443155. Which works nicely, but it uses most of the 40pin rpi header, so if you want a DAC Hat, then its not the right choice. But yes, skin support can be tricky if you are using touch. The resolution 800x480 is the resolution needed for the Grid Skin. If you just want display, then there are other resolutions that work fine. piCorePlayer a small player for the Raspberry Pi in RAM.

[SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] Touchscreen display for piCorePlayer
_Short_version_ I don't love the official Raspberry Pi 7" screen. It seems rather dated and overpriced for what it is. I don't care for the large bezel around the LCD and (like many things) it's extensively back ordered right now. On the other hand, reports do indicate it seems to be reliable. Q: Are there any other recommended displays that work well? _Long_version_ I'm building an streaming box using an rPi4, 'DigiAmp+ audio hat' (https://www.raspberrypi.com/products/iqaudio-digiamp-plus/) and 'integrated LRS-100-24VDC power supply.' (https://www.mouser.com/datasheet/2/260/mwec_s_a0011714173_1-2274466.pdf) I want a built-in touch screen to control it. Yes I know I can control it from my phone however I want a built-in screen. I'll be 3D printing my own case to hold all of the above and for space reasons I need to wall mount it. Unless of course anyone knows off an off the shelf case than can hold all of the above. I don't want external wall-wart power supplies. Everything has to be in the case. I bought 'one of these screens' (https://www.uperfectmonitor.com/products/raspberry-pi-7-touchscreen-uperfect) off eBay.It was cheap as it was a "certified return" sold by the manufacturer. Stupidly I was too slow testing all the features and only found out that the touch screen didn't work after the eBay return period had expired. The seller dragged their feet until this ended then stopped responding entirely :-(Reading reviews, the touch screen not registering as a USB device is a common issue. I tried powering it using it's own dedicated 3A 5V supply and it still won't appear in dmesg/lsusb. I've discussed with others who have the display and my touch screen doesn't work replicating their exact setup. I don't usually like buying off brand Chinese tech and this has just amplified this feeling. The other thing I noticed is that the skin of piCorePlayer seems fairly fixed at the 800x600 resolution of the official 7" screen. I had to force the above uperfect monitor to this lower resolution to get the PiCorePlayer skin to display.I read a few posts where people had gotten the skin to work with a higher resolution and it seemed a pretty longwinded process. dorkshoei's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=71619 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=115645 ___ Squeezecenter mailing list Squeezecenter@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezecenter
