Do you have random mode turned on? Does this also happen on one skin?
Hello
Sorry but where can I find the random setting, it happens as soon as I have installed the Peppy plugin even if it is not activated yet, without Peppymeter everything runs smoothly
I get the following error message via SSH after installing Peppy peppy_screensaver

Peppymeter configuration - where you choose resolutions and skins
Happy New Year everyone.
After a week of scratching my head on how to make the PeppyMeter plugin works on Spotify, I finally figured it out how to do it and would like to share.
Got mine working good on the 1480x320
Problems i had:
Made the mistake is replacing the custom5 folder instead of adding to it. ORIGINAL FILES SHOULD BE KEPT
Random makes it freeze. Its working smoothly if i choose the skin manually
the original files can be deleted. You can only leave those that are added
Glad you finally got it working.
damn you still have 7 days to go on your watch @Gelo5 i will be done with it in a few hours
but Gelo a happy newyear 2 you 2 happy skinning in 2024
you too Gelo5 happy new year…
Hi together,
wow, I can see a half million new skins for my plugin… very cool. geolo5 you are the skinmaster…
I have check my plugin, if it conform with latest buster 3.569. I see it needs some little changes.
But before I update it on git, I would check some other things.
Hi @naimnatnod Andy
do you have installed the latest Volumio version?
I have seen, with the alsa option set to ‘Modular Alsa’ no more resampling of DSD-files with my DAC.
Can you confirm this with your DSD files on your DAC display?
This option is the only one option, that pipes all input (incl. Spotify) to PeppyMeter. The problem so far was, that DSD files resampled to 192Khz. Is it still like that?
Otherwise this is the prefered setting for everyone, who also uses Spotify.
If the option set to ‘DSD direct’ I create a new MPD output pipe exclusivly for PeppyMeters. Then we don’t affect the standard output pipe. The best way to play DSD files and all other sources (Tidal… ), but Spotify don’t use the MPD, it use an own player. Therfore with this option we have no input for PeppyMeters.
The only way to use Spotify with the DSD direct option, is a redirection of Spotify output to MPD input.
I have an idea how I can do this, bit it is a bit tricky and not simple. I would only do this, if the modular alsa option not correct working with all sources.
best regards and happy new year for all

Happy New Year to You All Volumioneers!
One wish for the new year would be to have PeppyMeter Screensaver working side by side with FusionDSP. @balbuze @2aCD ,what do you think?
And of course Peace all over the World
Best Regards/ C
See you 2024
Hi together,
I’m ready with a new Beta version of PeppyMeter plugin 1.3.8. It is running with Buster 3.569.
I have try to route the Spotify output to PeppyMeters. This is a bit tricky, therfore a new option is available to enable or disable this feature.
The installation folder is changed (Volumio conform) to:
/data/plugins/user_interface/peppy_screensaver
- All additional skins are working also with this version.
Download 1.3.8 beta:
Important:
-save your additional skins
-deinstall the old version before you start the new installation.
-the best way is a fresh new installation of volumio
This is only a temporary download to test some things
best regards

Wow, he’s really back.
PS. should I write what users expect from this plugin?
It’s not what I want, it’s user suggestions (me too). The first and most important question: are you able to include the information contained in the TAG? I’ll write the next one later.
I’ll test it when I get home.
Hello. I have a question - what program or method are these indicators created?
I’m looking for an indicator - blue scale and inscriptions on a black background. Something like neon. I bought Emotiva equipment and wanted the indicator to be color-matched. It can be mono 800x480
