The entire entry is correct. Do other skins behave the same?

The following entry is responsible for this situation:
meter.y = 204

Hello,

I have found a way to deactivate or activate a plugin. With a command in ssh, I rename the respective plugin folder. You can include this in a script. I built a shortcut for my iPhone that turns the PeppyMeter plugin off or on. So that no errors occur, I have written another start script that always activates the plugin at system startup.

Best regards

Hello everyone,

I now have the same display as mchief (1480x320) in operation. When I copy the files from gelo to Orner Wide, Peppymeter is shown, but only on part of the display. What do I have to do to get a full screen?

1455

You did copy the correct folder? As the background image is a fixed size (1480x320). If it only covers a small pice, it sound like the wrong folder is loaded/copied

I think so too, but there is no custom folder with this resolution, so I took the wide one, but it is specified as 1280x420 in the plugin.

please look at the last posting in this topic.

I didn’t find anything about my question there, only the skins from Gelo. The skins run yes, but not in full screen. I also think Wide is the wrong folder, but I don’t know which one to use.
I couldn’t find anything about that in the posts.

Create a folder like:
custom_1 (1280x320), copy the images and meters.txt to it.
run cmd:
volumio vrestart

Goto to the plugin settings and select the folder.

I did it like this, Peppymeter doesn’t start

1461

for testing set the first option to 5 seconds., save it and reboot your system.

1462

I’ll test further tomorrow, but I had just run entire titles and it wouldn’t start. Many thanks for the help.

Copy to the Custom_5 (1920x480) folder

1464

I tried copying the skins to the 1920x480 folder yesterday. However, I had only tested with the Advance X22o Skin. The image remained black even after I stopped playback. I tested again last night. The skins Technics, Luxman, McIntosh, Sansui and Naim work. Unfortunately, Advance and Accuphase do not.

1465

They must work, I checked. All 12 skins work (2xSansui, 2xAdvance, 2xAccuphase, 2xTechnics, Naim, Luxman, McIntosh, Sony). Download again and overwrite.

If the skin is “black only” - art is missing or there is a bug in meters.txt

Hi Gelo,

thanks for the tip, I deleted the entire contents of the 192x480 folder and copied the freshly loaded skins. Everything is going perfectly now.

Thank you also for the new skins - great work!
