Content Provider lucky1 Posted November 29, 2018 Author Content Provider Posted November 29, 2018 which version of pinballX ?
Content Provider lucky1 Posted November 29, 2018 Author Content Provider Posted November 29, 2018 I installed the latest pinballX 32bit version and checked the pin2dmd support checkbox during installation. Then I replaced the dmddevice.dll and libusbk.dll with the files from my repo. Could not reproduce your issue with that.

Thanks for your help as always @lucky1 based on what you'd said about the dmddevice.dll I added it and in libusbk.dll to my virtual pinball directory and that fixed the issue. That fixed the problem. As for VP version I'm running 10.4.0 so I guess I've got something pointing to my VP version rather than my VpinMAME directory, but for now problem solved.
Content Provider lucky1 Posted February 6, 2019 Author Content Provider Posted February 6, 2019 v2.62 - added RS232 test to onscreen menu - added option to turnoff Wifi in onscreen menu
Content Provider arngrim Posted February 16, 2019 Content Provider Posted February 16, 2019 @lucky1 I just upgraded from 2.39 to 2.62, my pin2dmd dmdst32 renders now darker, is it possible to make the global rendering brighter? nevermind i found myself, pin2dmd.exe
Content Provider arngrim Posted February 19, 2019 Content Provider Posted February 19, 2019 ok so after some days playing with it after increased the brightness, generally the mid colors are very dark, whether is it 4 or 16 colors, with 16 i like the gradient of the colors but with 4, a lot of scenes are very dark, example i recorded theatre of magic, just the scene when the ball is in the plunger lane to choose the skillshot Another bigger problem, this was my second trial of recording, I skipped the first one and tried again because pin2dmd crashed, at the second try, pin2dmd crashed at the exact same scene , with the handcuffs at the end of the video, it doesn't seem like a coincidence so after the second crash, i stopped a game in pinballx and restarted the same game and this is the message i got: I had to unplug and plug the pin2dmd to make it work again
Content Provider arngrim Posted February 20, 2019 Content Provider Posted February 20, 2019 i tried again today and i have the same crash with my pin2dmd and firmware 2.62, at the handcuff scene like the end of my video, dmd freezes and pinn2dmd crashes, can somebody else confirm my issue?
Content Provider lucky1 Posted February 20, 2019 Author Content Provider Posted February 20, 2019 Which dmddevice.dll did you use ? If you use the latest from github please try this version https://github.com/lucky01/PIN2DMD/tree/b79916fdbeb71316d0c2f36459ca03e35c838456/integration/pinmame BTW the latest stable release is 2.58. You may want to revert back to that release if the above dll noes not help. https://github.com/lucky01/PIN2DMD/releases
Content Provider lucky1 Posted February 21, 2019 Author Content Provider Posted February 21, 2019 For further analysis a dmd dump (both raw and txt) of the scene that crashes would help. Just create a dmddump subfolder in your pinmame installation directory and actvate both external dmd AND dmd window in the game settings.
Content Provider arngrim Posted February 21, 2019 Content Provider Posted February 21, 2019 here's the file @lucky1 &ith the crash thanks tom_14hb.zip
Content Provider lucky1 Posted February 21, 2019 Author Content Provider Posted February 21, 2019 @arngrim could you please try new version v2.63 from github
Content Provider lucky1 Posted February 22, 2019 Author Content Provider Posted February 22, 2019 @arngrim unfortunatelly the last change fixed your problem but caused a new one . I fixed it in v2.64 I just released.
Content Provider arngrim Posted February 23, 2019 Content Provider Posted February 23, 2019 the link https://github.com/lucky01/PIN2DMD/archive/master.zip still points to 2.63, at least that's &hat the dmd says after upgrade
Content Provider arngrim Posted February 23, 2019 Content Provider Posted February 23, 2019 @lucky1, i saw the dfu was still 2.63, so i tried to update via the upd file, first time i try like this 1.3 Updating firmware from microSD card With firmware version 2.50 and higher it is possible to upgrade the firmware of the device by copying a pin2dmd.upd file to the SD card and reboot the device. This file can also be found in the github repository. i put the upd file to the root of the sd card without touching the rest, put it to the dmdst32, switch on, i see the logo with update in red, then it goes off, then i unplug and plug the usb cable again, and the dmd stays dark, not working anymore, what did i do wrong? what can i do to repair my device?
Content Provider lucky1 Posted February 23, 2019 Author Content Provider Posted February 23, 2019 @arngrim I guess you took the wrong upd file. I added the dfu files to the github repo. This file should work with your hardware https://github.com/lucky01/PIN2DMD/blob/master/firmware/latest/V3 STM32F4 DISCOVERY/PIN2DMD.dfu
Content Provider arngrim Posted February 24, 2019 Content Provider Posted February 24, 2019 ok, pin2dmd is working again, with 2,64, and passes the theater of magic scene, it's all good, thanks @lucky1
TimBoch Posted February 28, 2019 Posted February 28, 2019 Every update after 2.57 has had these issues with strange screens. My replacement screens seem fine however. video-1551392750.mp4

The latest official stable release is 2.58 as you can see here https://github.com/lucky01/PIN2DMD/releases After that I started to review almost all code parts to make the code more portable to other hardware platforms (see Teensy 3.6 / DMDMK66 port) and to improve performance and memory usage. This work is not finished yet but we are getting closer to the next stable release. I sent you a PM

Content Provider arngrim Posted March 8, 2019 Content Provider Posted March 8, 2019 @lucky1 the latest upd file has a problem
Content Provider lucky1 Posted March 8, 2019 Author Content Provider Posted March 8, 2019 @arngrim Did you load the upd file or the dfu file? I just checked the dfu and it was loaded in the tool without a problem In the READ.ME is a short description of the different file formats and upgrade methods Copy the .upd file to you micro SD card to upload the firmware to your device with firmware >= 2.50 preinstalled. Use the .bin file with the ST-Link Utility to upload the firmware to your device using the ST-Link interfacehttp://www.st.com/web/en/catalog/tools/PF258168 Use the .dfu file with the DfuSEDemo Utility to upload the firmware to your device using the user USB port in dfu mode.http://www.st.com/en/development-tools/stsw-stm32080.html
Content Provider arngrim Posted March 9, 2019 Content Provider Posted March 9, 2019 dfsudemo only accepts dfu files, i extracted only the dfu file when i tested, after i extracted the whole master package and use the same dfu file and it worked, strange, maybe another file was needed in order to use the dfu
Content Provider lucky1 Posted April 7, 2019 Author Content Provider Posted April 7, 2019 Just uploaded new v2.66 binaries to github and tagged it as the latest stable release.
