I wasn’t going to reply, but it will be New Year’s Eve soon…
Read CAREFULLY where to place graphics and images. You didn’t put them in the right place.
Still think it’s a mess?
It appears so.

Very thankful for all the help and the people who made these skins.
Guess i should make it clear I did have it working but then i changed the time out to 120 from 15 cause it was always coming on when i tried to go through the menu. Now i cant get it to work. (1480x320). All the other resolutions work fine. Now im back to 480x320. But if i touch the screen it goes off and doesnt come back on…total vice versa.
See what your times are in the Touch Display plugin!
It was 120, i tried 0. Both worked. It is disable during playback

Is this my problem???
Thanks alot to naimnatnod for helping me with chinese font on peppymeter. I have been meddling with it for a week until he helped. What a wonderful way to end 2023. I am having lots of fun with it.
Btw, I am running peppymeter on a Pi 5 output to a 15 inch display using Gelo’s 1920x1080 skins. I get a full screen of display compared to non full screen on a Pi4.

Hello community
These days I’m trying to get Volumio to work with Peppymeter. As soon as I’ve installed everything, Volumio and Peppymeter only run for about half an hour, then the stream and Peppy stop, after a restart it works again for half an hour
I read the forum up and down but didn’t find anything relevant
Or I’m just too stupid :-))
I would be very grateful for your help because I think the project is absolutely great
My hardware:
Raps 4 4Gb and 8GB
Hi-Fi Digi+
Waveshare 11.9 inches
San Disk Extreme 128GB
My approach
Create Volumio 3,569 SD card
Adapt Config.txt to Waveshare
Install plugin for touch
Enable ssh
Copy peppy_screensaver to home/volumio with FileZilla
The following error in FileZilla
Error: Directory /home/volumio/peppy_screensaver/node_modules/v-conf/node_modules/fs-extra/lib/fs: no such file or directory
Install via ssh volume plugin
Peppy activated and set up, and as I said it only works for half an hour
Log:
http://logs.volumio.org/volumio/yBx1JDs.html
I’m a complete newbie when it comes to Volumio and Linux, and sorry for my bad English, I work with a translator
Wish everyone a happy new year
Best regards
Martin
It seems like disabling PeppyMeter 1.3.0 (or even just changing the peppymeter plugin to use DSD native… effectively disabling the needles for Spotify), makes the skipping issue stop. Not sure if that info helps determine what is actually causing the issue.

Peppy meter is not an official approved plugin. So if it fails with Spotify it needs to be resolved by peppy.
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
