Use community maintained Adafruit_Python_SSD1306 #4

It would be nice to use the adafruit library https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_Python_SSD1306

how important is this really?

arthurlutz commented 4 years ago

Not very important but it would make the project more versatile and work with other OLED displays. Have a part of your dependencies maitained by such a mainstream library from adafruit is a plus from my point of view.

I also would like to use it with another OLED, like an SSD1322 / 256x64 SPI...

luma.oled, which we are using, does support https://github.com/rm-hull/luma.oled

Hi! Thanks for your reply! Maybe you can give me a hint where and how i can enable the ssd1322 support? I thin i need to put the "driver" in: Nanomesher_NanoSound/nanosound_oled/oled/device.py But what about the volumio plugin menu? I was not able to find where the predefined "1.3inch/0.96inch/1.5inch" devices are listed... I think, to get the ssd1322 working, i need to get it there also? Thank you, regards!

Hi, we cant provide official support for it, but we think it's quite likely that this will work. Here are some suggestions: 1) Confirm that the wiring and hardwires is correct. Install https://github.com/rm-hull/luma.examples and get ssd1322 example to work by using "-f conf/ssd1322.conf"

2) copy ssd1322.conf to /home/volumio/nanosound_oled/

3) Edit /home/volumio/nanosound_oled/nanodac_oled.py (source code in https://github.com/nanomesher/Nanomesher_NanoSound/blob/master/nanosound_oled/nanodac_oled.py )
