Hello

Please help 🙏

idk hardware stuff but this looks interesting

Try printing what comes in the ser

line = ser.readline().decode('utf-8', errors='ignore').strip()
print(line)

[split shell]

I will try

Nothing happened

[green goblet]

move those code at line 56 and 57 to before line 55. Make sure its indented the same as the if condition

[split shell]

Is that correct?

[green goblet]

you messed up

[split shell]

Yeah i know😐

[green goblet]

Replace your while True loop with this:

            while True:
                line = ser.readline().decode('utf-8').strip()
                print(line)
                if ser.in_waiting > 0:
                    if line.startswith("LAUNCH:"):
                        handle_launch(line.split(":")[1])
                    elif line.startswith("VOLUME:"):
                        value = int(line.split(":")[1])
                        volume = int((value / 65535) * 100)
                        print(f"Volume: {volume}%")

[green goblet]

it looks like there's nothing coming through on the serial port

Is your computer Windows?

[split shell]

Yeah

[green goblet]

Do you have Putty installed?

[split shell]

So the problem is in this Pico file.

Please react with ✅ to upload your file(s) to our paste bin, which is more accessible for some users.

[green goblet]

idk about the pico file. All of that machine library is foreign to me.

[split shell]

So you have no experience with Pico?

[green goblet]

What library did you install? machine?

[green goblet]

No I have no experience. I mentioned it earlier #1402607253605056584 message

[green goblet]

Try opening Putty and connect on Serial COM Port 6 with speed band 9600

If putty also shows no data, then its very likely the pico file is problematic

[split shell]

I think pico code is problem

[green goblet]

yea

[split shell]

So you can't fix Pico's code, right?

[green goblet]

In the pico code, add print statements in places where you see uart.write()

Then test run and check your putty

[split shell]

Replace or add?

[green goblet]

add

[green goblet]

Try your main.py script next

Seems like print works, than uart.write()

interesting

[split shell]

When I press the button, the Apps turn on but the volume up and down buttons don't work.

[green goblet]

How do you access the files stored on Pico? ssh?

Can you run commands on your Pico?

[split shell]

With thonny

[split shell]

I dont really know

[green goblet]

Can you show me how you access files stored on Pico?

[green goblet]

I see. That's very interesting. Well you can see that there are files on the left.

But yeah still no clue about the audio output out of the pico board

[split shell]

ssd1306.py is the screen software

[split shell]

I think this is the fault of the computer code because we get the sound centeredness from the Pico but the sound is not being transmitted to the computer.

[green goblet]

Sorry I googled and have no idea. Where'd you learn how to do this?

[split shell]

from chatgpt🤣

i have raspbi pi 5 and i dont know what to do with that

i will ask someone else

thank you for help
