Project with PeppyMeter Screensaver Plugin for VOLUMIO v2.9xx and 3.0xx buster

[pjorgenunes]

Yes. All ok.

[ClaesM]

Hi again! Are these corrections something that needs to updated for other resolutions too? Have nice evening!
Regards/ C

[Gelo5]

No, these are cosmetic fixes for 1920x1080 resolution. I will do the same for other resolutions, but in my spare time.

And now for something new, because it gets boring

ONLY FOR 1920x1080

hi gelo5,

seems the rotation point is a bit high, as the angle between VU meter and needle are different

[Gelo5]

Thank you. I’ll correct it in my free time. It’s good that you noticed.
Edit:
Corrected.
@Wheaten
You have a good eye

I had some time today so I did a brand new installation to my TBS, everything went well. The skins look beautiful but the file type or logo (Tidal, Spotify, Qobuz) shows as plain text.

On Raspberry Pi 4 everything looks as it should be.

Hi Gelo5!
Is there any chance to have “Old” scaled down to 800x480? It´s really nice and I think it will fit a smaller screen very well. Your skins are really great!

Hi. Thank you for replying.
I did a fresh install and I got the same error:
“Error
Failed to open “alsa” (alsa);
Error opening ALSA device “volumio”;
snd_pcm_hw_params_set_period_time_near() failed: Invalid argument”

Then I changed “Mixer Type” to “Software” as per your suggestion and now it works!
(“None” does not work for me)
I still get that error popup, but it works, so fine with me
Thank you very much for pointing me to it. Much appreciated.

Time to get some nice box to fit it all in with the Wabeshare 7.9" screen…

PS: shame about Spotify plugin problem. I hope it gets fixed soon.

[Sinisat]

Hi. I just realised that “Software” mixer impacts the sound quality… Any suggestions what to try next?

BTW: External DAC is Topping D10s and I was able to select that as the output so I guess the driver is already built in. And as I mentioned before, it works fine with the PeppyMeter plugin deactivated.

Hi, change Alsa to this setting, I have topping E50 and works well.

[Sinisat]

Hi. Thanks for sharing.
Yes that has solved my problem. Very happy PeppyMeter user here

Thanks you very much!

[bungie240]

No problem, glad it’s all working

Thanks again Gelo5. They look great; however, the type of file still shows as text on my TBS.
