posted a question 2 days ago in another sub-forum of this site and have not yet got a reply?

also noticed lots of others not getting replies for a few months now - is this forum dead?

there is no answer to my particular query in any documentation or FAQ provided by tiny circuits

not a good product experience so far, I may have to return my purchases to the retailer

hi guys - new member here not wanting to hijack this post, but I have the same question as the OP for a different project if that's ok?

i'm UK based and about to pull the trigger on a tinyscreen+ kit and proto board from mouser, it seems to be the THE perfect setup for my needs but I need to make sure first before committing to spending the money

my project needs a small screen video player - tinyscreen+ kit, check!
I need to move the control buttons away from the side of the screen - proto board, check!

i've read and re-read the instructions on the tinycircuits store page dozens of times concerning changing the settings screen etc. Unfortunatley my 53 year old brain just can't get round the coding necessary to acheive what I want, I last wrote code 40 years ago on a TI99-4A and things were very different back then

basically, I want to be able to have a screen on the display with custom text that lists my converted videos, then press a push-to-make button to trigger the playback of the corresponding video? or am I asking too much? something like this:

1:VIDEO 1      2:VIDEO 2
3:VIDEO3       4:VIDEO 4

i've installed arduino IDE and downloaded the screen menu code and the scrolling display code, and viewed them in the arduino software. I simply cannot make head nor tail of it unfortunately - I don't need the "military time" or the other titles displayed and I won't be using the tiny remote?

hope i'm not asking too much - thanks in advance
