An audio streaming player based on PiCorePlayer OS (raspberry) with a volume control that controls the AV receiver via HTTP.

The volume control via the Arduino is necessary because I also want to control the volume (like for all other devices) via an AV receiver.

So that the display does not run permanently, a relay is installed which is controlled via my smart home (openHAB) via HTTP (cgi script -> PiCorePlayer)

## PINOUTS

Raspberry:

NXT        =    5
PRV        =    6
Back        =    13
IR_D-OUT    =    12
Relais        =     4

Relais         =     5V
IR Emitter    =    3.3V

Arduino (Wemos D1 Mini)

# display
SCL     =    D1
SDA     =   D2

# rotary
Left     =    D3
Right     =    D4
button    =    D8


______________________________________________________________________


## HOW TO

# DISPLAY
Step 1 - While the SD card is still in the laptop/pc:

- in config.txt: comment out gpu_mem=16 and lcd_rotate=2 in config.txt 

- add to config.txt:

#---Begin-Custom-(Do not alter Begin or End Tags)-----

gpu_mem=128
disable_splash=1
avoid_warnings=2
hdmi_force_hotplug=1 config_hdmi_boost=10
hdmi_group=2 hdmi_mode=87 hdmi_cvt 1024 600 60 6 0 0 0

#---End-Custom------------------------

Step 2 - Boot Raspberry Pi

    - Put the SD card in your RPi and boot.
    - Find the IP address of the RPi, and enter this in a browser—see Determine your piCorePlayer IP address.
    - Once the RPi has booted up, this should bring up the pCP web interface.
        On [Main Page] scroll down to “Additional functions” and click on “Extensions”. Wait for green ticks, then click on the [Available] tab. In the ‘Available extensions in the piCorePlayer     repository’ section.     - Load nano.tcz extension
    - Load the pcp-sbpd.tcz extension
    - Load the pigpio.tcz extension
    - Install Jivelite from the [Tweaks page] (this step includes an automatic backup, so accept the reboot prompt.)

## DISPAY POWER TOGGLE

### startup script 

- sudo nano /mnt/mmcblk0p2/tce/start_display.sh

#!/bin/sh

sudo pcp-gpio mode 4 out

- sudo chmod +x /mnt/mmcblk0p2/tce/start_display.sh
- add script to user commands via webUI in tweaks section

### control script - sudo nano /var/www/cgi-bin/display_on.cgi

#!/bin/sh

sudo pcp-gpio write 4 0

- sudo nano /var/www/cgi-bin/display_off.cgi

#!/bin/sh

sudo pcp-gpio write 4 1

- sudo chmod +x /var/www/cgi-bin/display_on.cgi
- sudo chmod +x /var/www/cgi-bin/display_off.cgi
- sudo nano /opt/.filetool.lst
- add at the end of the file: var/www/cgi-bin/display_on.cgi
var/www/cgi-bin/display_off.cgi

- pcp bu
- sudo reboot

## CONTROL

# now the display can controlled via REST:
http://192.168.1.35/cgi-bin/display_off.cgi
http://192.168.1.35/cgi-bin/display_on.cgi

#### calibrate touchscreen:

    - Go to Web-Gui of piCorePlayer, section [Tweaks] and set “Jivelite Autostart” to “no”.
    - Reboot your RPi.

## get correct input device
cat /proc/bus/input/devices

## calibrate
sudo TSLIB_FBDEVICE=/dev/fb0 TSLIB_TSDEVICE=/dev/input/event1 /usr/local/bin/ts_calibrate

    - Make your calibration persistent: $ pcp bu
    - Go to the WebGui of piCorePlayer, section [Tweaks] and set “Jivelite Autostart” to “yes”.
    - Reboot your RPi.

Step 6 - Adjust Jivelite to the resolution of the screen

    - Connect a mouse or an IR-remote to the device to configure jivelite.
    - Choose your language and in the next menu select GridSkin 1024x600.
    - Save your changes in Jivelite...

Hi! Do you have any description (youtube video o blog post) on your epoxy finishing for the 3D print? It looks great!

  Are you sure? yes | no
