Unofficial Volumio3 images (with MyVolumio) for OrangePi SBCs with H3 processor

Fine! I found how to rotate the image on the display in the system (see post above).
Now I understand that the touch display plug-in is not working for me as it should! And most importantly, on my system its settings consist of only three sections:

  • Screensaver Settings
  • Mouse Poiner Settings
  • Scale Settings

And that’s the question - where are all the other sections?

  • “brightness_conf”
  • “orientation_conf”
  • “gpumem_conf”

those are only working on a RPi system, that’s why they are hidden in yours

I recommend to ask for help on the official thread of the touch display plugin

I would like to ask, is only ver 3.456 version a wifi device that can be used? Unfortunately, this link is broken. The wifi function cannot be used in other versions, especially ver 3.569. I am using the orange pi pc plus version. Thank you for God’s blessing.

I am building a player on orange pi pc, pcm5102 and Volumio 3.569. I’ve encountered that it often doesn’t detect the pcm5102 when trying to play - it writes an error. If you go into the settings, set playback via HDMI, start playback, then stop, then switch to the trunnion - everything starts playing normally… Is this a hardware or software problem? Maybe put previous builds. Which build is stable, can you tell me? Thanks.

the new stable version 3.703 has been released, please try that one

I will put the link in the initial post

Thank you! Will definitely check it out today!

hey, any plans for this on the orange pi zero 2w? or does one of these work for it already?

those imaged don’t work on Orange pi zero 2w (it’s a totally different CPU), and there is no plan of supporting it

I have the Orange Pi plus too, and I’ve tried all these firmwares for Orange Pi, good news is that the PC plus would work well with the firmware for Orange Pi One, BUT, the wifi would not work.

Hello Darmur, thank you very much for the excellent work!

I have tried the Volumio portings for Tinker board, Nanopi neo3, Radxa Zero, Orange Pi Lite, and I think the Orange Pi Portings are definitely the best as all the Plugins can be installed successfully and runs well.

The power consumption of these Orange Pi SBCs is very low and suitable for mobile use, I have set a Orange Pi Lite in my car, connecting the stereo through a Sennheiser BTD600 bluetooth dongle, the sound is obviously better than the BT connection from my smartphone.

Then I brought a Orange Pi PC Plus which have faster processor and on board EMMC, hoping get better performance. it can work with the Orange Pi One porting, but there are two problems:

1, WIFI is not working, I think it need the right driver.
2, The offical guide that install Linux to EMMC is not work on the Volumio porting.

It would be very grateful if you can add the Orange Pi PC Plus support. :smile:

Thank you!

It’s been a long time, but I’ll share - I found the reason for the rare pcm5102 not being detected - the presence of an oled display ssd1306 and the mpd oled plugin - when the plugin is disabled, everything works fine. I didn’t overcome the problem, and assembled a player without an OLED display.

So do you have an Orange Pi Plus or an Orange Pi PC Plus? I have Orange Pi Plus.
But I’ll try of course, but it already has EMMC LibreELEC installed, but you can boot from microSD.

Sorry, mine is Orange Pi PC Plus

It works very well with the Orange Pi One image, except the WIFI.

the chance of developing a dedicated image for Orange Pi PC Plus is very little, unless some volunteer takes care of creating the kernel package and the recipe for building the image.

I have to try it, maybe it will work on Orange Pi Plus too

Hello,
As I know there isn’t any version of Volumio what supports OrangePi 3B or CM4. These boards are built with an RK3566 SOC, what is the same as the Odroid M1S has. I uploaded the M1S version to a CM4 board. It booted up fine, but they has a different ethernet chip, so I can’t use only the console with an USB keyboard. Does somebody made a version with YT8531C ethernet chip?

Is it possible to install the driver from an USB disk on the OrangePi board, or I need to modify the source code with the ethernet driver?
