Hello Raspberry PI OS 64bit being official, are you planning a 64bit version of instrument panel? because the 64 bit version allows a better performance of the PI 4 and a better use of memory. Thank you for your work ! I love your software. Sorry for my English it is not perfect I am French.

Thanks. Yes, I will build a 64-bit version on the Pi 4 when I get time.

I spent a few days on this. Had to build Allegro5 myself as it's not available for 64-bit. This wasn't too hard and it was running perfectly. Built and ran the instrument panel but it failed to connect to the data-link. Fixed a few things and eventually got it connected but it wasn't receiving the data correctly. I think some of the delta code needs tweaking for 64-bit but never got to the bottom of it. Gave up in the end, will need to dedicate some more time to this at some point.

Sorry, I'm back to 32-bit for now.
