TinyTV & Tiny Video Player / Re: Not connecting to PC(s)

Hello,
boxing random
I have a brand new TinyTV but sadly I cannot find the device on either of my PCs. The charging light comes on when I plug in the USB, but it’s sadly not discoverable in Explorer or Device Manager.

USB cable is also brand new so I doubt that’s the issue… any ideas?!

Hello,
You can check your device manager by opening Device Manager and looking for any entries that might indicate an unknown or faulty device (usually marked with a yellow triangle). If you find one, right-click on the device and select “Update Driver” or “Uninstall Device,” then reconnect your TinyTV to see if it installs correctly.

Thumby / Re: Game runs in Emulator, but won't on Thumby.

Issue:
planet clicker
I have a game I'm working on - /Games/NovaNaut/NovaNaut.py that will run in Emulator and Fast Execute, but not on the Thumby.

At some point of development, it was working on the thumby, but as it got more advanced, I noticed it stopped.

What I have tried:
-Formatting
-Updating
-Clearing Browser Cache
-Resetting IDE
-Different Names
-Adding my code to an already working game on the thumby to see if crashes there etc.

I think:
It has to do with some of the coding. Maybe some of the python isn't compatible and causes it to crash.

Would like some feedback, I do see someone else had similar issue but mine didn't resolve. I have two games this started to happen to.

Thumby has limited resources compared to emulators. Check if you are using large images, sounds, or complex algorithms that may take up too much memory. If your game includes images or sound files, try optimizing them for size and performance.

TinyDuino Processors & TinyShields / Accelerometer OpenOCD issue

Hello, hoping to get some help. Super new user here. Trying to upload the pre-made code for the tinyzero. I am getting the following:

Open On-Chip Debugger 0.10.0+dev-gf0767a31 (2018-06-11-13:36)
Licensed under GNU GPL v2
For bug reports, read
http://openocd.org/doc/doxygen/bugs.html

none separate
adapter speed: 400 kHz
cortex_m reset_config sysresetreq
Error: unable to find CMSIS-DAP device

Can anyone point me to the right solution? Please dumb down your response to a newbie level

Thanks

TinyTV & Tiny Video Player / TinyTV2 encoding parameters - Handbrake?

« Last post by NatetheMac on October 11, 2024, 07:58:45 AM »

Just purchased a couple of TinyTV2s as gifts and was disappointed to learn the TinyTVConverter app (neither 1.0.5 nor 1.0.1b) would launch on my 10.14.6 Mac OS.

I've got both Handbrake (and ffmpegX) installed and wanted to do some batch converting (without the terminal, if possible). I also wanted to make the most of the new TinyTV2s increased 216x135 resolution over the original TinyTV (which I have seen shared in a prior forum topic).

Can anyone share the TinyTV2 settings I should use in Handbrake?

Thanks!

Yipee. Its working. I found this in the notes at the bottom: The TinyScreen library can be downloaded through the Arduino IDE menu at Sketch->Include Library->Manage Libraries... "TinyScreen"

Because I am so busy I just need a "hello world" on this display to motivate me to take more time. I am at:
https://learn.tinycircuits.com/Display/TinyScreen_TinyShield_Tutorial/
But it fails with the error: TinyScreen.h: No such file or directory
If I could just get something on the display it would motivate me to go further.
ChatGPT is giving me scripts that don't work for the same reason.
Thanks.

TinyDuino Processors & TinyShields / Re: New user, cannot connect to TinyScreen+ 'No device found on ttyACM0'

« Last post by Lax on October 04, 2024, 10:01:31 PM »

I figured this. I needed to reboot or logout of linux and back in to allow it to see the 'dialout' group changes.

Just for future reference.!

TinyDuino Processors & TinyShields / New user, cannot connect to TinyScreen+ 'No device found on ttyACM0'

« Last post by Lax on October 04, 2024, 08:18:02 PM »

Hello!

I recently purchased a TinyScreen+. I am running Kubuntu 22.04 (LTS). I am following the tutorial here: https://learn.tinycircuits.com/Processors/TinyScreen%2B_Setup_Tutorial/ and am running into an issue. When I try to upload the Blink or TinyScreen example I am always greeted with this error:

Code: [Select]

No device found on ttyACM0

I am a member of the 'dialout' group and did run the following

Code: [Select]

sudo chmod a+rw /dev/ttyACM0. I have correctly selected the correct Board and Port in the Arduino IDE but now I am stuck.

Running both

Code: [Select]

sudo chmod a+rw /dev/ttyACM0 &

Code: [Select]

lsusb I see the TinyScreen+ as connected. But now I am unsure how to troubleshoot?

I'm brand brand new to this so I apologize if my questions are easily answered or newb-ish.
