I have just tried this and got the same issue with Squeezelite not starting. I resolved it by changing the soundcard in Audioplayer – Edit Advanced Options. I changed from default to sysdefault. Not sure what that does different but I was able to start Squeezelite afterwards.
This is for sound out of the 3.5mm headphone jack. The Rpi touchscreen seems to be working ok as well.
Thanks to Raymond for the touchscreen suggestion.
I added JiveLite. Works fine, but is in dire need of fitting skin.
Also, kodi seems to be having some trouble with displaying movies in proper ratio/resolution.
Just as if it’s only using 2/3’s of the screen.When/If the nice folks of the Max2Play developer team get their hands on fixing those matters, I’b be more than willing to by a premium license.
I got that 7 inch official Raspberry Pi touch display.
Could not get a image to boot up on it to the login. Could not even get a desktop on it.
When I got up today I installed Max2Play fresh. Expand the file system rebooted and put my e-mail in and installed the:
Raspberry Pi Touch Display: Easy Install & Setup of three different Touch Displays (2.4”, 2.8″ and 7″) – including the official Raspberry Pi Touchdisplay
Then I could pick the 7″ and install it. It did not show up before. Then rebooted and the text came up on the 7″ so it worked. This time got to the login too 🙂
Then installed the JiveLite and that takes a little time. Looks like it makes it. Rebooted and started it.
It works on the 7″ touch screen. It ask for language and then the skin and it had 640 x 480 but the last was Juggler Skin. I picked that on the display.
But picked it out with a USB mouse. The touch is not working. Not sure if I plug the ribbon cable in right or if it’s a setting.
But seems like it’s working good just have to fix the touch yet.
Still in the „Install further jivelite Skins (important for small touchscreens)“ I can only pick the „Port for 2.8″ 320×240 Adafruit LCD…“ now. But I don’t need to pick it any more. But something it don’t show up any more there. It did and it was the only one 7″ when I installed from the start.
I power the LCD with a 5V 2A white Raspberry pi powersupply and feed the Raspberry pi with the supplied breadboard leads through GPIO pins.
I’ve got a USB keyboard and mouse, as well as a WIFI dongle stuck in the Raspberry Pi’s USB boards.
So far no ‚Low Power‘ indicater has shown up.Feeding the Raspberry Pi through the Display’s USB connector to the PI’s µ USB power in might cause the problem.
How much current does a USB 2 port provide? 500 mA max I thought.Given the USB 2 port on the display is limited to that specification, that’s not enough to power the Pi and peripherals I’m afraid.
I got the IQaudIO Pi-DAC+ and the black case for the Raspberry Pi 7″ touchscreen. The HiFi board sticks out the back so the back is not back as fare as it could be so I had to cut part of it out. If I did it again can see how much I did not have to cut off. I got some photos of it.
Had to solder the power wires that go to the Display right on the HiFi board because they would of went back way to fare for the case to fit.
The new stand-offs are all most to big. The one goes right next to the power USB plug. It rubs against it. But it worked. Got them from element14 later seen mouser has the better right size ones.
Cut the 3 holes the 2 big ones and the small one the temp plate from here help with that some but this one is not the same holes. I did a pencil side ways on it to mark were to drill. But it just still would not fit. Used a exacto knife to like whittling the plastic off till it fit.
Had to wait to get the Stand-off’s in the mail. The IQaudIO HiFi board don’t come with the right ones were you can use it with the 7″ Touchscreen Display.
I guess this my help others if they want to do this. I think you could do it better them me from seeing the photos here.
One more photo to see what I guess would ask for.
I did cut the center mount off between the 2 RCA audio plugs. Before I know I had to cut more off the case. Can see now I did not have to cut that off.
O yes the HiFi board is the IQaudIO one.
