TinyTV & Tiny Video Player / Can't access the settings menu on DIY kit after update

« Last post by OyVey on February 25, 2024, 11:12:54 PM »

Hi!
I just updated the firmware on the DIY kit via the update page and after I did so I can't seem to access the settings menu by pressing the top right button while sliding the power switch on.

Did the way to access it change?

Halp.

thanks

General Discussion / Joystick Tinyshield Alternative -

« Last post by rwelch on February 24, 2024, 06:50:46 PM »

Stated in another post is that the replacement for the JOYSTICK TINYSHIELD
https://tinycircuits.com/products/joystick-tinyshield

Is to use the JOYSTICK WIRELING
https://tinycircuits.com/collections/wireling-input-output/products/joystick-wireling

Is the WIRELING ADAPTER TINYSHIELD required to build out the TINYDUINO ROBOT CONTROLLER joystick using the JOYSTICK WIRELING ?

Thanks in Advance.

Thumby / How To Program Thumby In C?

« Last post by drummyfish on February 23, 2024, 02:21:45 PM »

Hello,

I just got my Thumby (two in fact :]), I would just like to ask if it's possible to program it in plain C, without using the web IDE, just using GNU/Linux command line. I understand the IDE is comfortable and good for beginners, but I am used to programming with my own editor and I have a bunch of games written in C that I have ported to many devices which I would like to port to Thumby too. Anyone having any directions or tutorials about this? Thank you :-)

TinyTV & Tiny Video Player / Re: Max Audio Codec Settings?

« Last post by Jason on February 23, 2024, 11:32:22 AM »

Hey there! I see that the default converter puts the audio at pcm_u8 standard with a 10000hz sample rate. I'm trying to do something that requires a bit more articulation in the audio: playing sped up audio that the user needs to slow down after recording externally. What is the highest quality/bit rate/sample rate I can get into the video?

Cheers,

Ryan

The firmware doesn't support any other sample format or sample rate. It doesn't dynamically change to play audio, it is fixed.

If you're OK with programming, you could give our firmware a look and try to change it but there's probably a good reason why it is what it is: https://github.com/TinyCircuits/TinyCircuits-TinyTVs-Firmware

Hello,
I am looking to implement a step counter feature using TinyZero, and Accelerometer TinyShield. How can I achieve this on Arduino IDE? Would appreciate some pointers here.

General Discussion / FTDI chips

« Last post by plonkarchivist on February 22, 2024, 10:25:03 PM »

After being soldered onto the board, does the small FTDI chip on the TinyUSB board require programming to function? I observed that it features a 6-pin programming header. While I've programmed bootloaders into Atmel microcontrollers using USBtinyISP, I have no prior experience with FTDI chips.

TinyTV & Tiny Video Player / ESP32 with Tiny Circuits

« Last post by dorothycrad on February 22, 2024, 05:04:15 AM »

Hello,
I wonder whether I use ESP32 with Tiny Circuits together or rather communicate via Bluethooth or Wifi. Any  idea?

TinyTV & Tiny Video Player / Tinytv Mini colors inverted

« Last post by bowchicawahwow on February 21, 2024, 12:18:01 AM »

I just received my TinyTv Mini and it works most of the times but sometimes all of the videos colors are inverted. It won’t change until I let the battery die and restart it. Any suggestions?
