 Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me. |

Like the project ! Low wire-count for what it does.  I have forgotten how convenient the IR remote controller is, I remember, years ago, how pleased I was to find it built into MMBasic could I ask where you got that type with UDLR buttons ? also, anyone, I don't think MMBasic drives SSD1309 natively ? |

THis is where you can get the remote in the UK https://www.amazon.co.uk/DollaTek-Infrared-Wireless-Control-Arduino/dp/B07DJ58XGC/ref=sr_1_5?crid=31UUFTJS4WIM3&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.UkwSJS5xAAQYwZB-zZKU6AS5o14Mqe-BaDHf6Nbw4QSXW7apUKon7PKAVhkFU__tOidKwLT-6xnwsQwPw-DQ8R0dXiUWYvC0cUOnClluNu_XM1YeYjHL-lcBfVqkoLhxAlw_9ucYc6v7rB4xgmkGSH0w7olIpNpLCrw-aa3a_p5dhfmdDVHRLAEsWSIEj4ALptItv6Ex-LPsaVPT9jdAbdCTZvJZJoi1fD3a_BDSbaQ.ww-1okaIPwXT8pfYxsBECbnTuG8eXv4cHjgEAofxyoA&dib_tag=se&keywords=IR+%2B+Remote&qid=1722409745&sprefix=ir+%2B+remote%2Caps%2C125&sr=8-5 I had to write this in Micropython because MMBasic doesn't suppport the SSD1309 Is anyone wants the code then let me know. |

Hi asknik2022, Yes, it would be interesting to see the micropython code. Just zip it up, and post here if you like. AFAIK MMBasic if not feaured driving dual displays anyway. There may be tricks around it, but default is 1 display. Vice project by the way. The VU meters look quite good for the limitted resolution. Are the displays SPI or I2C ?

SSD1309 Vu Meter.pdf Hi Volhout Attached code above. The displays can be configured for both but to save pins I converted them to I2C Many thanks for the compliments. |

Hi asknik2022, Looking at the code, I realize you are using the SSD1306 driver in 128x64 size. I am using SSD1306 in 128x64 size using I2C also for my projects using PicoMite. But this is not a SSD1309, but a SSD1306. Or are both compatible and use same screen size. Fact remains that PicoMite defaults to 1 display, and will require all kind of tricks to control 2 displays.
