Re: i2c2oled (little brother of tty2oled)
Thank you "Flandango" I really liked the transition of 2 images, do you have a tutorial how to create 2 "pix" to visualize a certain core?

Re: i2c2oled (little brother of tty2oled)
See https://github.com/venice1200/MiSTer_i2 ... dification for a little picture howto.
Does this help?
Check this Repository as well
https://github.com/ingloriond/MiSter_I2 ... c2oled_pix
Maybe the picture is already made.

Re: i2c2oled (little brother of tty2oled)
Is anybody who is using i2c2oled with the latest Linux update having any issues?
I am getting errors and it looks like the version of BASH that comes with the latest linux update (Bash version 5.0.18(1)-releasee (arm-buildroot-linux-gnueabihf)) doesn't process string arrays properly and I am curious if anybody else has come across this.
Never mind. I had to convert all files to unix files with dos2unix. While it didn't seem to have a problem with Bash 4.x and 5.1, 5.0.x seems to really not like the carriage returns on each line of the PIX files.

No. But open the file with an textviewer, make a screenshot from the characters and use graphics program to zoom out.marcelosofth wrote: ↑Mon Nov 29, 2021 11:45 pm Thanks friend, is there any .pix file viewer for Windows?
It should looks like...
I am using the pix since the beginning and with the latest MiSTer System, no problem at all.
How did you copy the files over?

Re: i2c2oled (little brother of tty2oled)
I had the files on the system since May it was working till my display died a while back.
Just got a bunch of displays for another project I am working on figured I'll toss one on the Mister and that's when I noticed the error on line 350 and after some digging found the issue.
I then pulled down a zip file from Github and unzipped that and still had the issue except that this time I noticed that the S60i2c2oled file errored out saw that it had carriage returns. Converted the scripts to unix format and they worked but still had that error, lit wasn't till after I checked the file format for the pix files that I saw it had carriage returns and converting those also fixed it.
Now mind you, everything works on an older build I tested it on and the same zip file, with carriage returns and all does fine on my ubnutu and msys builds that use bash 5.1.x.
So somehow, most likely during the unzipping process onto the sdcard, the files are processed with carriage returns but I think that's all on my end.

Find some Pix here

//Edit
Download the ZIP file from here https://github.com/venice1200/MiSTer_i2 ... s/main.zip

Ps. I wanted to learn how to make animated PIX!

Then please upload your pix here in a ZIP file.marcelosofth wrote: ↑Thu Dec 09, 2021 12:18 pm I'm creating all colors from scratch in the way that I like best, if anyone wants, I can make it available for download!
An animated PIX is not a real animation, it's just a set of Icons drawn over the base picture at a dedicated position in a timed order.
Here is an Example, it's the "Press Play on Tape" Animation. See https://github.com/venice1200/MiSTer_i2 ... ed.sh#L407
Code: Select all
function pressplay () {
local t=0;
showpix pressplay #Load Base Picture "pressplay.pix"
# Testing Font-Based-Animation
for (( t=0; t<5; t++)); do #Loop
set_cursor 48 4 #SetCursor
i2cset -y ${i2cbus} ${oledaddr} 0x40 ${itape1} i #Draw Tape Wheel 1 with Icon 1
set_cursor 64 4 #SetCursor
i2cset -y ${i2cbus} ${oledaddr} 0x40 ${itape2} i #Draw Tape Wheel 2 with Icon 2
sleep 0.3 #Wait
set_cursor 48 4 #SetCursor
i2cset -y ${i2cbus} ${oledaddr} 0x40 ${itape2} i #Draw Tape Wheel 1 with Icon 2
set_cursor 64 4 #SetCursor
i2cset -y ${i2cbus} ${oledaddr} 0x40 ${itape1} i #Draw Tape Wheel 2 with Icon 1
sleep 0.3 #Wait
done
}
Code: Select all
itape1="0x3C 0x5A 0x81 0xC3 0xC3 0x81 0x5A 0x3C"
itape2="0x3C 0x66 0xE7 0x81 0x81 0xE7 0x66 0x3C"

I also saw an example of a slide, where the image is shifted to the right, very cool!

That's Display based pixel scrolling.
//Edit
Nice Pictures, well done.
But you now that you need to convert them to B/W and pix format?
See https://github.com/venice1200/MiSTer_i2 ... dification
...and renamed to the Cores name.

Re: i2c2oled (little brother of tty2oled)
I don't know much about this project, but do you want an extra column on the tty2oled to track images created for this, or does it work differently?

Re: i2c2oled (little brother of tty2oled)
That's right "Venice" I haven't converted to .pix yet, but this is easy I've already tested it here, now like you said I have to rename it to the name of each "CORE" for display!
Ps.: I ended up selling my Mister for a very good price, and the other one I bought arrives next week, so that's where I can really test it out!
Ps. do you use some .pix as right scroll? if you use it, can you make a video for me to see?

Hardware Scrolling means for SSD1306 Oled, define the display area which should scroll and start scrolling.marcelosofth wrote: ↑Thu Dec 09, 2021 7:11 pm Ps. do you use some .pix as right scroll? if you use it, can you make a video for me to see?
It will continuously scroll until you stop it.

Re: i2c2oled (little brother of tty2oled)
I am adding in support to view the i2c2oled pix files in the tty2oled pixviewer
@venice opened a PR in i2c2oled repo to add a workflow to generate the data file

I am thinking about moving the i2c2oled pictures to the picture repository.
Would this help or make things easier?

i2c2oled Updates
i2c2oled got his own Installer/Updater. Thanks to RealLarry
Run
from the MiSTer's command line (F9) or from an SSH Session to download the i2c2oled install/update script to the MiSTer's Script Folder.
After the Script was downloaded, start it from the MiSTer's Script Menu, the MiSTer's command line (F9) or an SSH Session running the command
All needed Files and Pictures are downloaded to the right places and the correct permissions are set.
And i2c2oled got now his own Picture Repository on GitHub.

Re: i2c2oled (little brother of tty2oled)
Not that I know.
But you already made a lot of nice looking png’s.
They just need to be converted and renamed.
Could you do this?
