Project with PeppyMeter/PeppySpectrum Screensaver Plugin for VOLUMIO

Volumio Development
2987

I would like to mention a special thanks to @Andy_Yong as his youtube videos has always guided us to make the Volumio and Peppymeter thing possible as I come from a non technical background.

Friends, since I have started using Volumio and Peppymeter for about a while now, so I am really forgetting few steps. Currently, I am using Rpi5 8GB RAM on a Argon case and it is running smooth while connecting from volumio.local. The only issue is while I connect the HDMI to the RPI case, I am not able to get the display on my 4k TV. Can someone please guide me the steps as how to activate the display as well as 4K output ?

Thanks in advance

Are you running the lates beta of Volumio, instead of the latest stable release? If so roll back to V3.661

2991

Hello Wheaton, no i am using the latest stable version 3.661.

First remove DSP, reboot and retest.
and if it still doesn’t work post a log. I will move this to the Peppy meter topic, so people that monitor peppy issues will be notified.

Built-in skins don’t work either?
This is RPI? What other plugins do you have installed? Does volumio without peppyscreen work?

Hello Gelo5, thank you so much for your kind support.

Yes this in RPI. Volumio works perfectly in general. What do you mean by built-in skins?
These are the plugins i have installed:

I will also do what Wheaton suggested above (remove DSP, reboot) - i had tried this but without rebooting it and it had not worked. Will keep you posted.

Good news. Wheaton’s suggestion worked. Removing fusiondsp and rebooting fixed it. Thank you all for your help. What a great community this is!

2996

One more thing: do you have Spectrum and PeppyScreen enabled at the same time?

2997

Yes i had but removed it. why? they wont work? also what is the spectrum? i installed thinking maybe that was needed too…

Peppy-Spetrum 0.0.23 (super plugin from @balbuze ) OR PeppyMeter Screensaver (from @2aCD) . One is ON, the other is OFF
You don’t need to delete anything.

Good afternoon, dear friend! Why does the last digit react poorly to the signal? Maybe I configured something incorrectly?

3000

There is a level at 20 kHz but it is very short and small

3001

What are the bitrate and sample rate?
try e.g. 44.1/16

3002

I’m not using a DAC yet. Audio output to headphones. Maybe because of this?

3003

Is this playing from internet radio? what is the BITRATE?

3004

KissKissRadio 128 Kbps

3005

Well, there you have your answer.
Try min 16/44.1
128, 320Kbps -there will be no last bar (or very poorly)

3006

Exactly! Everything worked!
