PeppySpectrum - The plugin!

There are no ready-made templates for v.01. You have to create them yourself (remember you can only use 30 levels). You didn’t specify the resolution of your monitor.

Edit: Here you have v.13 (under CLI) of Peppyspectrum
peppyspectrum.zip (1.2 MB)

On your picture, we can see MPd oled. It may be the cause of a non working spectrum.
Only last version of peppyspectrum allows different number of bars and different resolution.
Install from cli brings nothing.

I had same thought on md_oled , so I reinstalled md_oled you see in pic after attempting other clean installs with no other plugins but touch display, now playing , peppyspectrum then adding peppymeter before peppyspectrum , then had v.01 working I read added md_oled as you see. Think I’ve tried most every possible option, I even got prompted to upgrade the plugin in the gUI, from working v.01 to v.13 and after upgrade it was again getting asla error device not found if peppyspectrum was on and all setting as mentioned and other plugins off as mentioned. So I just disabled it for now. I will try the cli install over the store install just to test. But it’s just not working for my rig it seems. As stated it is still beta.

I have could other Pi’s around, I might experiment with those plain out of the box and see.

As always the support here is amazing and I for one much appreciate it.

My resolution is 800x480

I’ll give this zip a whirl later today, thanks as always for the great support…

  1. Try installing without mpd OLED (maybe you just need to disable the mpd plugin?)
  2. Try connecting via HDMI to the TV.
    It has to work.

It works, it works - but there is some incompatibility
(all causes need to be ruled out so that @balbuze will have a spoiled Christmas and have something to do) :grin::joy::partying_face:

uninstalled current PeppySpectrum and installed from CLI the ZIP for .013 and it installed successfully unlike v .08 zip. it displays a random Template, but it starts making the songs auto skip to the next one every 4-5 secs. tweaked a bit more and now get this error again. I uninstalled MD_OLED as well just to be sure. My Display is the Raspberry PI 7" at 800X480… I can try and HDMI later. But wanted to share this update… I would like to give @balbuze a spoiled Christmas too, willing to try whatever would help… If I turn off the peppySpecturm plugin it plays fine :slight_smile: Yes muilt room is off and tried mixer at hardware and none, and all other play options set to recommend above… I tried turning off the DAC in setting to headphones, then back and rebooted, no change same error. Yes PeppyMeter is installed but disabled

Please can you provide log?

How to make it available in the store on my side? Currently I cannot find it anywhere. Tried rebooting as well, etc. Should I somehow refetch all plugins from the store manually?

This is what I have:

goto the web UI and add /dev to the URL, then enable Test Plugins

PeppySpectrum v0.0.14

  • fix alsa lib path

Should work even if Peppymeter was not previously installed.
Still beta :wink:

Beta, but works great!

Hello , I have installed the plugin from the test plugins but the spectrum is not shown .
I have tried also with qobuz and web radio .
No mod oled installed , nj
Do I need to make adițional settings ?
Thanks

Hi . Sorry bu it does not want to start
http://logs.volumio.org/volumio/kFtsj7n.html

did you switch off the peppy plugin?

Hi .
This is not installed at all . Mpd oled is disabled .

you need the plugin only switched off it runs off peppy plugin install that is what i was reading.
@balbuze can you confirm this?

I have only now playing plugin . In the last time I just listen to music without peppy or mod oled plugin …installed . Just had no time

it seems something went wrong while installing…
can you try

sudo apt-get install python3-pygame
pip3 install Pillow

or remove the plugin, reinstall and reboot
