Hi Gelo5!
So… is there a chance to have Brainworx in 800x480? I would love to have it but I understand if you don´t have time to do it.
Regards Claes

Please check how the 180-degree meters behave. Don’t use RANDOM.

I think that the needles starting point is a little bit wrong. The angles of semester mot to be right? Maybe I’m wrong?

Then show this starting point.
Is it not on “0”?

ClaesM · July 9, 2022, 2:18pm

You are right, I´m wrong!
Thanks / C

Don’t worry. The meters “distort” how you listen to internet radio

Been watching this thread since it started and been very impressed, so today as it’s too hot to breath in the UK I attacked the “these items may be useful one-day” boxes and pulled out what I think is a Lilliput 7" 1024x768 touchscreen which used to be my carputer back before satnav’s were so cheap.

Got the screen running, once I reduced the Touch Screen addon to 0 screensaver timeout and peppymeter installed, no my problem, I have long since lost the remote & instructions for the display and it appears that 1024x768 isn’t a thing amongst the rest of you as I couldn’t find any layouts for this resolution, so the display showed the bottom part of the touchscreen screensaver as per picture 1

My apologies to Gelo5, I’ve butchered one of your designs to use as a proof of concept by adding 168 pixels to the bottom of it - obviously this didn’t work, until I found the config.txt file that stated the current layout at 1024x600, changed this to 1024x768, rebooted and it works!

Now to fire up photoshop a tweak Gelo5’s OLD_Meter layout which will look nice on top of my Leak amplifier/receiver

Forgot to add, this is all running on a RasPi2 & Volumio 3.324 - no DAC added yet

Hello everyone,

I would also like to thank you for this project and the wonderful work. This plugin with its diverse screensavers is for me the non plus ultra in Volumio. Great job, thanks to each contributor

I decided after many attempts for Dash, but adapted it to my own ideas. I think Dash is absolutely brilliant, rather spartan but with all the important information.
