Annoyingly that’s exactly how it’s set up except for my smooth needle is 4 
Perhaps when the weather is bad again i’ll sit down and do a ground up rebuild and see if that makes any difference.
Cheers for the help though 
Just taken the SD card from the “main” system to the spare Pi i have but using an HDMI screen - no problems 
So the fault is not on Peppymeter’s side.
Can you try the following, just trying to exclude as much as possible.
In Peppy:
- Star/Stop animation => Off
- Select a template, smaller then your screen. like one off the seeded like 800x480
- Pick only one template (not list or random)
What happens now?
Errr… nothing… it might have just died as i can’t get it to do anything! And rebooting doesn’t help.
I’m going to leave this till tomorrow so i don’t throw it across the room.
yea been there.
Fight with a HifiBerry DAC+ Pro, which kept causing issues.
So I introduced it to a sledge hammer.
We won

Looks like i’ve lost the sceen, LCD and DAC, not sure about the Pi yet - test system just got promoted and it has the working HDMI attached
Seems yesterday was expensive

Ciao a tutti, peppy meter non supporta gif animate?
Vorrei tanto visualizzare una cosa del genere…
Grazie
Hi Gelo5. I was wondering if it would be possible to resize the peppy meter, without editing the images in Photoshop. Only edit the configtx of the plugin?
I want to take this opportunity to say thank you for all the time and effort and your responsiveness to user requests You’ve made so many members happy by fulfilling their requests, and I’m very thankful for your work.
Peppy relies on pygame, currently it’s not possible to make it dynamic.

Grazie per tutto il lavoro svolto, non è possibile creare una sequenza di PNG che si alternano continuamente a simulare la rotazione continua? La rotazione deve essere slegata dal ritmo. Grazie

Thanks for all the work, is it not possible to create a sequence of PNGs that alternate continuously to simulate continuous rotation? The rotation must be unrelated to the rhythm. Thanks

I recommend changing the post to English (until @Wheaten doesn’t see 
)
Edit: Too late…
Animated background is not supported.

You’re welcome for the translation! 
I liked your comment about the image formats. Since I don’t fully understand the mechanism that drives the VU meter needles, I’ve guessed that it might be possible to animate them by sequencing PNG images. Greetings to everyone!
Very basic,
The Image of the needles are replaced on the background using calculated angels.
It’s been a while since I play Spotify with PeppyMeter. I remember the needles don’t move before, then there was some updated plugins and the needles move as it supposed to. Now, I am in Thailand and just subscribed to Spotify and now the needles don’t move again.
Did I do anything wrong?
Volumio tested 3.795, 3.796, 3.799
Spotify Plugin 4.1.4
Touch Display 3.5.1
PeppyMeter 2.2.1
Alsa Configuration - DSD native (bitperfect audio)
Spotify Integration - ON
Spotify Compat. with USB-DACs - ON
I don’t have any issues with local files, YouTube Music.
Thank you.
Andy
For me, to get peppymeter working, I had to also activate the FusionDSP plugin.
