After five hours of coding I finally got the volume knob to work! This was definitely the biggest hurdle for this project, at least I hope so. Thank you to those who run the AI over at https://www.blackbox.ai/ that assisted me in learning and writing Python code....
The coding part isn’t the most fun, but whenever I can get it working it will pay off! I’ve spent at least 4 HOURS trying to get one volume knob to work and it hasn’t yet. Though, tonight I did get one step closer. Eventually it will work! Between...
I didn’t have the exact connectors but was too excited to care! So, I hooked these up and got a lot of static. Took me a few minutes before I realized the green and blue wire are supposed to go into the single blue housing and not split up as in the photo. Once...
We got power and access! Though, I didn’t have a power cable to power the AMP. So, temporarily I had to remove the AMP for I could plug power into the rPi. I wanted to get a head start on what I’m getting into software-wise while waiting for the correct...
I received the AMP in the mail yesterday and got to install it tonight. The AMP for the audio is a separate piece called a HAT (hardware attached on top). On the above image you can see it attached to the top of the Raspberry Pi (rPi) Pictured below is the rPi without...
The speaker was tacked welded into that “C” piece which was then tacked to the 3 posts piece. I used a air hand grinder to break all the weld points to separate everything. I wanted to keep those three posts for I could somehow affix the new speaker to...
