True but the bigger 2.5 inch OLEDs cost £25 
I have a couple and some of the 256x64 SPI screens are now £80!

I had a thought that the year display on my photo shows the dimming over time pretty well, as my player is nearly always showing this screen.
Looking at the year, 2022
- the first two digits, 20, have been constantly ‘on’ for four years of dimming
- the third digit, 2, changed from 1 two years ago, you can see the shadow of the 1 and the other pixels have two years of constant ‘on’
- the fourth digit, 2, has previously shown 8, 9, 0 and 1 for a year each, and the bottom right pixel was lit for the first time this year, and so, while dazzlingly bright in the photo, is effectively the original pixel brightness.

Nice! Is that running volumio 3? Where did you get the case from?

I had some problems with volumio 3 and oled. It’s running volumio 2. Case from Amazon. Front and back panel from 3d printing.
Is is the MPD Oled plugin supposed to work with Volumio 3?
The plugin isn’t supported for volumio 3 but you can install MPD_OLED standalone from here: mpd_oled/install_volumio3_deb.md at master · antiprism/mpd_oled · GitHub
hi @supercrab
I noticed the mpd_oled plugin folder is available on the github repo for Volumio3, but the plugin does exist in the volumio Ui with beta channel activated
could you please publish it properly, so I can give it a try and eventually support for having it published as stable?

Hi, good to see it’s in the repo! Unfortunately, I can’t publish it at the moment because I was unable to get mpd_oled spectrum analyser to work. I’m not sure what the issue but if I can sort the issue I’ll publish it. The issue seems to be down to audio routing I think, others did manage to get working.
@balbuze back in time you did some changes to have the plugin working with the new alsa pipeline.
Could you please give some details to @supercrab regarding this?
Hi!
I have Oled Display with SSD1309 driver IC, SPI/I2C
Could this be appropriate for MPD Oled?
Raspberry PI 3B+
Thanks
Balbuze did help me and other people had managed to get it working, but I couldn’t get it working whatever I did. I might try again when I get chance!
Yeah, I have one of these! I think I changed it to I2C mode for it to work. I removed R4 and bridged R5 and R3
Thx!

Hello,
As FusionDsp is now stable enough, I took time to make some other plugin to work with…and of course without!
So I updated mpd_oled made by @supercrab to do so.
It uses now a specific alsa component developped by volumio team : “volumiofifo”. So no more CAVA settings in the plugin.
All sources should work with that (spotify, Tidal etc…)
I moved category to “user_interface” too.
Feel free to test…
mpd_oled.zip (388,8 Ko)
To install, copy the zip on your device and from its location
mkdir mp
miniunzip mpd_oled -d ./mp
cd mp
volumio plugin install
cd ..
rm -Rf mp
enjoy
