Adafruit Matrix Bonnet with 64x64

Post by holmesha »

Hi - I am trying to run the Henner Zeller code using the Pi Zero 2 and the matrix bonnet with a 64x64 panel. I've soldered the extra bit to allow for a 64x64 panel, but I can't seem to get the python examples to display properly. There are gaps in the display. However with the C examples I can get it to display correctly. Any ideas on the python code?

Thanks!!

Try this:

Code: Select all

 $ sudo python
Python 2.7.9 (default, Mar  8 2015, 00:52:26) 
[GCC 4.9.2] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> from rgbmatrix import RGBMatrix
>>> matrix = RGBMatrix(32, 4, 1)
>>> print ('width={}, height={}'.format(matrix.width, matrix.height))
width=64, height=64
>>> 
It might be necessary to rebuild the python library if you are not seeing 64x64.

Code: Select all

 make -C lib clean all
   sudo make -C python clean
   make build-python
   sudo make install-python
