Newbie here, hi dev!
I’m having a hard time to set up my waveshare 7" hdmi lcd (B) that i bought secondhand.
1st, i format my sd card using sd card formatter. Then, i flashed the latest volumio .img on my 32gb sandisk sd card using rufus coz balena not working on my pc. I didn’t know why.
2nd. I plug my sd card on my rpi. Then, open ssh to connect volumio on my pc.
User: volumio pass: volumio.
Then, i type the paremeter at the end of boot/config.txt
I download VERSION: 3.631 RELEASE DATE: 21-02-2024 then unzip using 7zip.
I use raspberry pi 4 model b 2gb ram.
On my first try i did to install the latest touch display plugin. But it seem to be error.
That’s why i reflashed again, and on my 2nd try
I tried to do what it says here on tutorial Raspberry PI Display and Volumio: a touchscreen music player - Volumio
But same things happen no shows on lcd and on WebUI there’s no showing miscellanea category.
I think the tutorial is from Volumio 2 times and it may be a little outdated.
If you did not install the Touch Display plugin on your current Volumio system: Install version 3.4.0 of the plugin now. You find it in the category “User Interface”.
Not sure I understand correctly - so just to make sure: Use the HDMI port next to the USB-C port of the Pi where the power supply gets connected.
Put them into “/boot/userconfig.txt” otherwise your settings will be lost after the next Volumio update.
If you want the settings to be followed: No. [That would be my suggestion at the moment.]
Lines in “/boot/userconfig.txt” beginning with # are ignored.
Hi gvolt! Here’s what outcome of my work as per follow your tutorial.
1st, Flashed volumio os 3.631 img. Using rufus.
Then, unplug the sd card then plug to rpi.
Ssh - rpi

2nd, command type sudo nano /boot/userconfig.txt
Coment out parameters.

hdmi_cvt 800 480 60 6 0 0 0

-shutdown rpi
Switch on backlight
Plug hdmi & usb display to rpi 4

Using pc-Connect to volumio’s web ui then go to UI install touchdisplay 3.4.0, and it says

An error occurred while installing the plugin Error
Most often a network issue is the reason for failing downloads during the plugin’s installation process. Changing the repository mirror as described here may help.
The reason for this error is probably that time / date on your system is not set correctly. After correcting it a mirror change will probably not needed anymore.
