Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Announce: Slimmer
Hi I cannot install this, can't find "libftdi.tcz" Someone has already logged an issue for this but no response so I guess Slimmer is abandoned? Has anyone installed recently with any success?

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Announce: Slimmer
Hello there, Slimmer on PiCorePlayer is EXACTLY what I need, however I'm I finding it doesn't seem to work following the instructions on the latest build of PiCorePlayer. Has anyone installed from scratch recently with an I2C 20x4 LCD, and if so I'd love to know what version of PiCorePlayer "just worked". I have no issue doing some extras on top of the original instructions I just feel I'm shooting in the dark at the moment. Having said that, if anyone knows of an alternative distro for Audio which allows menu navigation via the LCD and some GPIO buttons I'm all ears.

Good day.

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Announce: Slimmer
Hi Guys, slimmer is a helpful tool to get my own "radio" working. As I'm not familiar with programming so I'd like to ask you if someone has a tip. As I can see on github there is a feature for turning on and off the backlight of the display by lcdproc. But this is not included in the last compiled version. So how do I get the latest version onto my device? Another useful function would be a POWER Button which controls the LMS Clients Power status. At the moment I use SBPD but this is not compatible with pikeyd. Once I run SBPD pikeyd stops working. Is there a option to fire a shell command (eg. pcp power) from pikeyd as slimmer cannot handle a power command? Thanks a lot!

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Announce: Slimmer
Hello, I found the solution myself. The pikeyd service could not be started because the kernel module /dev/uinput in pcp6 is not started. The solution was to enter the "modprobe uinput" command in the /opt/bootlocal.sh file before pikeyd was started. Here are my installation steps for "Slimmer" under pcp 6.0.0: - Open the Picoreplayer web interface - Execute Resize FS (100MB) - Install ipv6-4.19.105-pcpCore.tcz from PiCorePlayer repo - Install libusb-compat.tcz from the Official PiCore repo (if this error occurs: mount: / tmp / tcloop / libudev: failed to setup loop device for /mnt/mmcblk0p2/tce/optional/libudev.tcz) - Press "load" a second time to completely install the extension - Establish an ssh connection with Putty - cd /mnt/mmcblk0p2/tce/optional - wget http://distro.ibiblio.org/tinycorelinux/9.x/armv7/tcz/libftdi.tcz - wget http://distro.ibiblio.org/tinycorelinux/9.x/armv7/tcz/libftdi.tcz.dep - md5sum libftdi.tcz> libftdi.tcz.md5.txt - continue according to instructions point 3 to point 15: https://github.com/terba/slimmer/wiki/Building-a-player - note: at this point, slimmer will not work properly yet - Enter the following command at point 16: cat >> /opt/bootlocal.sh << EOF modprobe uinput /usr/local/etc/init.d/lcdproc-server start /usr/local/etc/init.d/pikeyd start /usr/local/etc/init.d/slimmer start EOF - sudo filetool.sh -b - Reboot After Raspberry Pi has rebooted, Slimmer starts correctly.

Here is the content of the rule: SUBSYSTEM=="input",ATTRS{name}=="pikeyd",NAME=="input/%k",SYMLINK+="pikeyd",MODE=="6440" Does anyone have any idea why the rule works under PCP 4.1.1, but not under pcp 6.0.0?

For me, the display comes on as soon as voltage is applied and always stays on even after the player has been inactive for a long time. If I comment out "BacklightInvert=yes" in the file Lcdproc.conf, the backlight goes out as soon as Lcdproc starts. So I think it should be possible to control the backlight.

Tiny Core like distros mount the software packages (the package files) over a loop device read-only. So you have to change the slimmer.tcz package file, and put your executable into it. Or you can put the binary somewhere in the home directory of the tc user and store it permanently with -filetool.sh- and change -/opt/bootlocal.sh- to start this one not the one in the package.

I've been looking for something to display the currently played song and Slimmer seems to fit the bill.. thanks for the excellent work here! I completed the tutorial and it is working, but it seems that Slimmer runs alot after pCP has already started and playing music. Further in detail: After reboot, the screen goes blank (expected), and once pCP has rebooted LMS autostarts the song. About a minute after this, the "Welcome" message is displayed, and the correct song is displayed immediately after. Is this expected? Did anyone else encounter this?

Hello, I want to use slimmer/LCDproc to drive the VFD display of my (broken) Denon DRA-585RD. I did some hardware design myself a couple of years ago and wrote a python script which sends the necessary info to my hardware through a serial(GPIO) connection to my hardware. Because the python script is somewhat sluggish I searched or another way. Then I stumbled upon Slimmer. I already got it running on a HD44780 but I can't figure out how to get the rawserial driver running through the GPIO serial port. >From a putty session I can do a Code: echo "hello" > /dev/TTYAMA0 which popups on my VFD but when I activate the rawserial driver for LCDproc nothing happens. I've been googling around for a while now but can't find any solution up till now. Any idea how to tackle this? Thanks in advance.

Hi Tibali, I just got my pi running wit external buttons and rotary control from the QueezeButtonPi software. My next goal is to add a display and see if a TUI ( Text User Interface ) is working for me. As this project is adding HW buttons for functions , and a rotary controller, Using both at the same time is likely to create a conflict. Has anyone already used both ? And what pitfalls do I need to avoid ? The obvious one is double pin assignment/usage, and should not be too difficult to keep separated.

I suggest triple checking the wiring - and make sure that the LCD still works by putting it back on the other Pi (just in case something broke in the move).

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Announce: Slimmer
Hi, Is the -Size=20x4- option set correctly in LCDd.conf in the hd44780 section? I think your hardware must be correct, if some text appears on the display. My tip is some configuration problem on LCDproc side. You can also test if slimmer works OK. If you change your LCDd config to the -curses- driver and run LCDd in the foreground. It will emulate the screen on the console (ssh terminal session) you are running LCDd. I think I added the curses driver to the piCore package too, but I'm not sure. Or you can connect to LCDd (localhost) with telnet and type the required commands in, to display some test strings on your LCD. http://lcdproc.sourceforge.net/docs/current-dev.html#language-commands Regards Balázs tbali's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=65336 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=105819 ___ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Announce: Slimmer
Hi, I have tried to add the Slimmer "package" to my piCorePlayer, to get a LCD display showing what the player is player. I am a bit stuck in getting it running smoothly, as my 4 lines display only shows 2 lines - and not even at the same time :( When playing, only the first line is on, showing the playing time and track number. If I turn the rotary encoder, line 3 will show the volume bar. But I cannot get any "Artist", "Album" or "Song title" to show up, as is shown on the Slimmer page. My setup is as follows: - Running piCorePlayer version 3.21 on a Raspberry Pi A+. - Slimmer installed as shown on the "github.com/terba/slimmer/wiki/Building-a-player"- site. - Hitachi 20x4 display, with i2c interface (incl. 3,3V to 5 V bidirectional level conversion interface). - The LCDd.conf is configured as shown on the "github.com/terba/slimmer/wiki/Using-an-i2c-LCD"-site, with the exception of the i2c address which has been changed to 0x3F. I have tested the display and i2c interface on an Arduino, and it works perfect. There is obvious something which I have missed, but I cannot figure out what. Can anyone help me with some clues?

hi mff, On the [Tweaks] page we have "User commands" for adding user's commands to the startup process. Theses are run towards the end of do_rebootstuff.

Simply adding the Code: sudo /usr/local/etc/init.d/pikeyd start command to the "do_rebootstuff.sh" somewhere after the jivelite section did the trick. Now I can use touchscreen and pikeyd simultaneously. But one more thing is left: No presets can be stored or set by pikeyd commands. Can anyone point me in the right direction how to set the correct configuration commands for pikeyd?

So, next challenge: I can get LIRCd to run with -uinput by the way Ralpy describes. I can also configure my own lircd.conf file so it contains the right keys for slimmer.

I have tried the udev rule from the 'wiki ' (https://github.com/terba/slimmer/wiki/Using-a-remote)and put it in a file called 98-lircd.rules in /usr/local/etc/udev/rules.d/ .
