Seeing character corruption on the LCD every so often. Also it would be nice to have the facility to use a 20x4 lcd as well as the 16x2.

Using octoprint on a Raspberry pi 3+, with 16x2 hanging of i2c interface.

Hi i had somtimes character corruption to (after a longer time) and i had modificated the code for me to use a 20x4 lcd

n3bojs4 commented 5 years ago

can you give me informations about your hardware. Maybe we can reuse your code and add a dropdown menu in the web interface where you can choose to use 20x4 or 16x2. Right now i am really busy :'( i don't have lot of time
