Re: anyone interested in code for a 20x4 display?

I attached the archive with my changes. I kinda hacked up the tuner dial stuff, as I don't want to use it (later, I'll using a button instead) - but if you diff against Jeff's original, you'll get the idea. display2.sh is also attached. I was going to paste it into the post, but I think the attached...

anyone interested in code for a 20x4 display?

I pretty much rewrote most of main.c and made a new interface.sh file. Here's how the display is formatted: Artist Name Track Name [mpc state] Station Name There are no page refreshes, as all info is on one screen. "mpc state" displays the current playing state, "play" "paus...

Re: LCD screen updates are way too fast [FIXED]

OK - so instead of a linux host, I used a Mac to compile the code...

NOW WORKING!

Sorry for my thinking out loud here, but maybe it'll help someone with similar problems.

Re: LCD screen updates are way too fast

OK, so I'm closer...

I flashed your pre-compiled hex file and it works as expected.

Anything that I compile makes for f-ed up code who's timing is all off...

So maybe some avr-gcc switches need to be custom set for my environment?

Re: LCD screen updates are way too fast

Ok - so I got a 16x2 today and tried it. Same issues. I also decided to disconnect the soldered crystal circuit on my proto board and try with another set of crystal and caps on breadboard - still the same problem. The long Title scrolling happens so fast I can barely see it, and I can see the stati...

LCD screen updates are way too fast [FIXED]

Finally had the parts/time to put together the LCD board today. I have a 20x4, so I know I'll have to work the code over pretty good, as I'd like to display everything on the same screen refresh, not two toggled screens... anyhow... so far, using the code meant for the 16X2, everything looks good ex...

Re: simple on-platform web interface

OK, considering that, I don't really think this little bit of code needs a license. Consider it a code sample.

ilinux, do with it what you will...

Re: simple on-platform web interface

License? I dunno - never really contributed my software before. Suggestions?
