Thank for the excellent guide.

I am now working to turn the screen backlight off when the player is
stopped.

Waveshare has a very good document for controlling the backlight.
https://www.waveshare.com/w/upload/5/56/PWM_control_backlight_manual.pdf

(Some soldering required)
Simple script

gpio -g pwm 18 1024 
gpio -g mode 18 pwm  #set the pin as PWM 
gpio pwmc 1000 
gpio -g pwm 18 X #change the brightness, X ranges 0~1024 

I have a GPIO 18 conflict with the HIfiberry but I am just looking for
on/off.

gpio -g mode 23 out
gpio -g write 23 1  
gpio -g write 23 0

I could use some help running a script based on the player's on/off
status.
