A touchscreen controller for Sonos, using a Hyperpixel 4” touch LCD display and a Raspberry Pi Zero WH.
Using https://github.com/maru-sama/sonoscontroller. Pi configuration based on http://www.weigu.lu/sb-computer/pitoucon/index.html, with mods for touch rotation.
Provides a full-time desktop display of what’s currently playing, along with basic control.
Very interesting project.
Something like this would be great for the O2 Joggler devices...
So, with the little DSI LCD displays, Kivy updates the album cover images lickety-split. Never an album cover that doesn’t load. With an HDMI display attached, at least on the rather slow Pi Zero, only about one in ten album covers gets displayed, before Kivy appears to just give up. May work with a multi-core processor like on the Pi 3 or 4, but not on the Zero. I’m sticking with developing for the small screens for now. It’s what Kivy’s meant for, after all.
