I've made the tutorial showing you step by step how you can run this SmallTV-Ultra with PlatformIO, but it's the same as in ArduinoIDE mostly. Check it out:
How to program SmallTV-Ultra in PlatformIO? Running TFT ST7789 with Adafruit and directly I've also included code sample for running TFT without external library. Let me know if I can help you futher somehow, and I'll be happy if you mention my tutorial in the video.
The new GeekMagic ultra arrived and i got the code working! Thank you so much i really appreciate it
Next step is to see if i can program a very basic game (something like pong or atari breakout) onto it, the controls would be from buttons hosted on a website on a webserver running on the SoC itself
Cześć,
posiadam falownik sofar spięty z homeassistantem po modbus over tcp, działa to ładnie. Kiedy zobaczyłem na ali te ekraniki od razu kupiłem dwa, zainstalowałem esphome, i zacząłem rzeźbić yamla, udało mi się dojść do etapu gdzie wszystko ładnie się odświeża i wyświetla, ale obsługa tego lcd przez sterownik to jest jakaś padaka, 13 sek zamrożonego ekranu, 2 sek czarnego i potem nowy ekran z odświeżoną zawartością. Pamietam że na oryginalnym sofcie te ekraniki były bardzo responsywne, generowały grafiki bardzo dynamicznie.
