I'm not really an expert on sudo stuff, but do know that it isn't good practice to run in sudo mode unless it's really necessary, as you want to limit the permissions that apps can run with as much as possible, so they don't run amok and trash everything if they don't behave themselves. Is there an easy fix for that as well, or should I go back to running without sudo and try to change the USB permissions? It worked for me as well, but now running with sudo seems to have switched the audio back to HDMI. The reason I wasn't starting with sudo before is I read somewhere in this forum that someone was having trouble getting audio to the 3.5mm jack, and running without sudo fixed that. bashrc to run fruitbox as sudo, and you're right, the permissions changed, and the system can now create the fruitbox.db. I'm not 100% certain, but you may be able to do this by typing something like sudo chmod -R ugo+w /mnt/usb You can do one of two n v1.16 in sudo mode (by prefixing the fruitbox command with sudo), or changing the music path of the usb drive to have write permissions for non super users. V1.12 required sudo to run but v1.16 doesn't, so maybe it is a permissions thing as you suggested. If I change directory to/mnt/usb I can see the music folder, and the mp3s inside it. I'm sure I have my MusicPath and Database paths correct in my fruitbox.cfg, and the USB is mounted. But, for whatever reason, the 1.16 machine is unable to create the fruitbox.db file on the USB stick. I think it's a permissions thing maybe? If I stick the same USB stick into my 1.12 machine, it will create the database and play the mp3s, and if I then stick it back into my 1.16. If I create a new music USB stick, the fruitbox 1.16 machine is unable to create a new fruitbox.db on the flash drive. I've got most everything working thanks to helpful posts here, but have run into an issue I can't find a solution for. #Serial number sd jukebox v2 400 install#I've just built a fresh install of Fruitbox 1.16 and through thorough reading in this forum have solved most of the problems I encounterd with my touchscreen and audio issues. #Serial number sd jukebox v2 400 skin#The playing next (coming up) area is just a status object in the skin file, so you can change its physical size and also what's displayed in it via its Contents file. You can edit the skin to your hearts content to change anything you like. I suggest to read the user guide section on status objects, or ask for advice on this forum - some others have used the status Output feature to control scrolling displays, etc. you can create an Output file in a object in the skin file which can output text when a GPIO is pressed, and then write an external script file which constantly reads this text file for keywords which can be used to control LEDs, etc. volume normalisation needs to be done before fruitbox. #Serial number sd jukebox v2 400 code#It may appear sometime in the future, but it's not a trivial code change because it requires two instances of the mp3 decoder to be running simultaneously, and then there's all sorts of complications such as will cross fading be supported for video and streaming too? The closest thing we've got is a new feature in v2 which provides fading in and out of songs in attract mode. Crossfading between tracks.not supported. ![]() v2 will be out in a couple of months fingers crossed. ELO touchscreens are now working, but the fix isn't available until v2. I'm loving the retro look of the software, and if I can get these illuminated buttons working the way I have it in my head it should look great.įirst of all, congratulations on your upcoming wedding! To answer your questions. #Serial number sd jukebox v2 400 full#can you increase the size of the playing next window so that anyone selecting songs can see the full list, or do I need to choose a different skin other then WallJuke? #Serial number sd jukebox v2 400 serial#My alternative though on this is to use a keyboard encoder for the button presses in Fruitbox, and wire them in parallel to the gpio on the pi running a script for the serial control. can I use the gpi triggers for button presses and also run a script alongside that can trigger serial messages to be sent, or can I modify the gpio script inside Fruitbox to add serial outputs? I have an Arduino I intend on using via USB serial commands to control the LEDs in the buttons for attract modes and flashing LEDs when buttons are pressed. does any volume normalisation take place, or is that something I'll need to batch process once I have chosen the songs we will be loading up? ![]() ![]() are there any options for crossfading between tracks? did anyone get the ELO touchscreen working in the end? Not a major issue, but it happens to be what I have as a monitor. I've been playing about with Fruitbox for a few days and it's going to become our jukebox after the live band at our wedding later this year. ![]()
