[PLUGIN] Touch Display

gvolt · February 13, 2022, 9:03am

Adjusting brightness should work as long as you don’t have V1.0 of the official 7" display. On screens of this old revision, brightness values below 128 simply turn the screen off, while values above 127 turn it on.

Apart from that, on the config page of the plugin it is possible to define two different brightness values (“Brightness 1” and “Brightness 2”) and to specify the time of day at which each brightness value should be set (e.g. a higher brightness value in the daytime starting at 6:00 and a lower brightness at the night-time starting at 21:00). The time of day values need to follow the 24-hour clock system and the time format hh:mm. If both time of day settings should be identical, the screen brightness will not be changed but only brightness 1 will be applied.

Regarding the time values be aware that the plugin uses the system time. The system time might deviate from the local time and can only be changed from the command line currently.

What are your settings for “Brightness 1”, “Brightness 2” and their start times on the plugin’s config page?

Ok, I don’t know why it wasn’t working before when I had two separate brightness values entered to start at different times. But I decided to make start time the same for each, and then adjusting Brightness 1 started to work. And then I changed it back to two brightness values starting at different times and that now works too.

Please post the output of

cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log

What screen (brand and exact model name) are you using?

Toxedo · February 20, 2022, 9:43pm

hey good evening, at the moment the ui doesn’t even work via HDMI. I haven’t gotten to the display yet

pure volumio 2.907 installation and then only touch plugin tries to install, on volumio 3.178 everything is ok

Are you using the screen you mentioned here?

Toxedo · February 20, 2022, 10:00pm

it’s not my setup, everything works for me thank you. this is from my friend who prefers to stay with 2.xxx he only uses hdmi to tv. sound does not work but IU surface

gvolt · February 20, 2022, 10:03pm

Ok, what is the brand and model name of his HDMI display?

In case there has been a download problem during the installation of the Touch Display plugin: Did you already try to uninstall and re-install the plugin?

Toxedo · February 20, 2022, 10:07pm

samstug tv 55zoll

I’ve uninstalled/installed it more times with a restart after each action

At least chromium-browser has not been installed and also has probably not been downloaded successfully. This could be e.g. because of DNS problems or Volumio’s data partition has not been fully expanded and therefore there is not enough space to install chromium-browser.

You may check disk space with

df -h

Look for the line starting with “overlayfs”.

Looks good. So probably a download problem as mentioned above.

Toxedo · February 21, 2022, 3:21pm

yes no plan what I do wrong. get no picture from the HDMI on Volumio 2.xxx

gvolt · February 21, 2022, 4:39pm

IMHO you need to somehow make it so that the download of the additional software like chromium-browser - which happens during the installation of the plugin - is successful. To me this appears to be the culprit here.

Toxedo · February 21, 2022, 4:50pm

chromium-browser is running in this time, but maybe I can also get Rotary Encoder KY-040 to run on the volumio 3.xxx then I would switch

gvolt · February 21, 2022, 4:52pm

I can’t follow, could you rephrase this statement:

Toxedo · February 21, 2022, 4:55pm

I got the chromium browser up and running now. hdmi output still no picture. normally nothing has to be in the config or

gvolt · February 21, 2022, 5:12pm

Could please post the outputs of

cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log

and

systemctl status -l volumio-kiosk.service

again? Or maybe better PM me to not to clutter this thread too much with logs etc.
