The rPi acts as file server for the ESP32 and as interface for the eStreamPlayer32 through the chromium web browser that comes preinstalled with Raspbian.
The output from the browser goes to the 3.5″ TFT touchscreen that is attached.
This post is about the web-interface on the rPi.
Working from memory here. Probably forgot some step.
- Install Raspbian with desktop on the rPi.
- Open
raspi-config
and:
OpenBoot options
and setWait for Network at Boot
to<Yes>
.
(Not enabling this will make NFS mounts fail at boot)
OpenInterfacing Options
and enable bothSSH
andSPI
.
Closeraspi-config
. - Install Pi-Hole on the rPi. Remember to set a static ip. Let Pi-Hole reboot the rPi.
- Edit
/etc/fstab
to mount192.168.0.100:/tmp/mnt/sda1/music
on/mnt/muziek
. - Make a symlink in
/var/www/html
namedmuziek
that points to/mnt/muziek
. - Edit
/etc/lighttpd/lighttpd.conf
and add the handler".mp3" => "audio/mpeg",
tomimetype.assign
.
The MP3 decoder will not recognize audio files if this header is absent and fails to play the file without any error.
(TODO: raise an issue about this at the ESP32-audioI2S repo) - Install LCD-show and start the LCD with the
LCD35-show
script.
The script will reboot the rPi to display the desktop on the LCD. - Rotate the rPi display to 270 degrees. See here how to.
- Invert the touchscreen coordinates. See here how to.
- Set the screensaver to never activate. See here how to.
- Open chromium on the rPI and browse to the ESP32 ip address.
- Set the browser to full screen.
