I created a repo for my images here:
https://github.com/aeronius/MiSTer_Pix. Let me know if there's anything you need me to do as I'm not super familiar with Git.
Also, are there plans for adding a SSH1106 driver? These OLEDs are the same 128x64 as the SSD1306, but in a slightly-bigger 1.3" screen. The larger format would increase visibility at a distance without being quite so large as the Diymore 2.42", which might be difficult to integrate into a case.
Find attached a test version of the
i2c2oled-system.ini file with changes for OneColor Pictures.
Just replace the existing file with the one attached. Make a backup of the existing one before you replace it.
It's possible that this file will be overwritten by the updater.
You need to create two new folders
/media/fat/i2c2oled/Pix_Onecolor for OneColor Pictures and
/media/fat/i2c2oled/PRI_Onecolor for Primary/Private OneColor Pictures.
If "ONECOLOR" is enabled, the Script looks into the new folders and use these pictures if found, with no modification.
If no Pictures are found in the OneColor folders, the regular Picture folder will be searched.
If a picture is found it will be displayed, but with 16 inverted Top Pixel lines.
Content within
PRI* folders is not touched by the updater. Pictures in
PRI* are used preferably.
To Support SSH1106 Displays the Display RAM Adressing Mode must be changed from Vertical to Page Mode.
This Mode change is already done in this test version. Now I need to look for an SSH1106 Display.
Make sure your Display is powerd off once to apply the new configuration on Script start.
Please report issues here.

, I needed a capacitor between RES and GND, I found out that if I jumper R7, that CS becomes connected to GND, and because CS and DC are right next to each other, and if you have installed pin headers, that you can use a computer jumper to jumper them, and with CS becoming a second GND it also helps with adding the capacitor, I used a small 10uF 10v electrolytic capacitor and connected the negative to CS and the positive to RES.
. The two-color screens lose 25% of the pixel area to that yellow bar at the top. This is fine for the existing images as the MiSTer logo sits in that space. But that also means there's a lot less area for the artwork underneath. I'm designing around the one-color display so that there's the most space possible for the art. And the MiSTer footer at the bottom only takes up 5-8 pixels at the bottom vs. the 16 pixels at the top of the two-color screen.
