i2c2oled (little brother of tty2oled)

[salamantecas]

I have created the version of athena and an alternative for apha mission, although possibly for alpha mission I will end up doing some more since I am doing tests so that it comes out spectacular you will have to wait

[salamantecas]

I don‘t see any imcoming things on github.
Did you fork the i2c2old picture repository?

Hi Venice,
can you check if you got the last ones I sent from alpha mission and athena?

I don‘t see a new PullRequest in the picture repository.

I did it again although I don't know if I did it in the right place, you tell me what it takes to rectify the next time, thanks for the patience

[venice]

Everything correct, many Thanks.
Your PR is merged, files are ready for the i2c2oled updater!

Hi@all,
this is a testing version of the i2c2oled-system.ini file to make use of the available alternative PIX files.
I have stolen the logic from tty2oled

If you like to test it, extract the attachment to /media/fat/i2c2oled on your MiSTer and add the line

Code: Select all

USE_RANDOM_ALT="yes"

to your i2c2oled-user.ini file.

Make a backup of your current i2c2oled-system.ini file before you copy the file to your MiSTer.

Github User ahmadexp added the functionality to read an AD7414 i2c Temperature Sensor
which is solderred on a RTC v1.3.

In my case, all the times that I have tried with 2 images to see how the alt worked, I have not been successful since it has always loaded the main pix image instead of the alternative, I cannot say if it works well or not, I tried it with 2 images that I have not yet uploaded based on pc xt

You can simulate a corechange by open a ssh session and type, Genesis as an example

Code: Select all

echo „Genesis“ > /tmp/CORENAME

wait for the display to complete and then type

Code: Select all

echo „MENU“ > /tmp/CORENAME

and wait again.

Repeat this a few times.

it worked for me! Although sometimes it doesn't come out as often as you'd like, I had to be more patient. yes it works Venice good job

New Testing!

If you like to test it, extract the attachment to /media/fat/i2c2oled on your MiSTer.

If you like to test the _alt PIX file function add the line

Code: Select all

USE_RANDOM_ALT="yes"

to your i2c2oled-user.ini file.

Changes:

• Run Display Init and show Boot Text only once each System start.
  Makes an i2c2oled restart much faster.

• Minor updates releated to _alt PIX files.

• More debugging code.

Many many thanks for the new pictures.

The „image of light“ is shown if you enable debugging.

As nobody complains I will release the new scripts soon.

Cheers

[venice]

New Stable Script Version released!
Run the i2c2oled Updater to get the new Script Versions and maybe some new PIX.

Changes:

• Run Display Init and show Boot Text only once each MiSTer start.
  Display Fill and Clear on start is moved to debug mode.
  Makes the i2c2oled (re-) start much faster.

• New Option to use the _alt PIX files randomly.

• More debugging code.

If you like to use the _alt PIX file function add the line

Code: Select all

USE_RANDOM_ALT="yes"

to your i2c2oled-user.ini file.

Note:
The Script looks for _alt files only in the folder where the first useable picture was found.
If you use the OneColor Option and a OneColor picture was found, the script doesn't look for _alt files in other folders.

Is there a list to know who is editing which logos so there is no duplicate work?

[venice]

This is the google sheet which should be used and updated by all picture contributors.

Take a look.

Nice! Yesterday I had a few free minutes and made two more. I'm putting the .pix on my github, so I'm adding the links in this worksheet.

[venice]

I don't like to search the google sheet for new pictures!

If you use github please fork the picture repository (https://github.com/venice1200/MiSTer_i2c2oled_Pictures)
https://docs.github.com/en/get-started/ ... ork-a-repo

add your pictures to your forked repository and create pull requests to add your new pictures to the picture repository.
https://docs.github.com/en/pull-request ... rom-a-fork

After the Pull Request was accepted the pictures will be ready for everybody using the the updater and you can find them at the PixViewer Site.

Makes life easier.

Find a attached a testing version of the i2c2oled scripts which includes a screensaver.

!!Edited!!

New Options in i2c2oled-system.ini and i2c2oled-user.ini and their defaults.
SCREENSAVER="yes" # Set to "yes" to enable the ScreenSaver
SCREENSAVER_INTERVAL=10 # The Screensaver Interval in Seconds
SCREENSAVER_START=6 # The Screensaver starts after SCREENSAVER_START * SCREENSAVER_INTERVAL Seconds

The Screensaver shows the actual time, the text "i2c2oled", the text "MiSTer FPGA" and the Corename.
