Screen: Firmware CHANGELOG(v0.23)

test compression and partial drawing. source code is partest.c in v2scrctl.zip.

The main upgrade in the new version v0.23 is LZ4 compression. With this compression and partial drawing, we can greatly increase the FPS, making it stable at 60Hz or even higher for high-resolution screens like 10-inch (1024×600). With VoCore and USBIP (VirtualHere), it is also possible to make the screen wireless via WiFi.

New firmware, upgrade tool and sample code, download at https://vocore.io/misc/v2scrctl.zip

PS: end of this month we will make a demo board with 3.4 inch round screen and wireless function.

vocore.io: the site is temporarily offline

🙁 Very bad, vocore.io is offline. I have no idea what is happening; it just won’t turn on (maybe physical damage). Over the past ten years, the server has been offline many times. Sometimes heavy snow crashes the power supply, sometimes floods get into the server room, and sometimes there is a shortage of power supply.

Double hot backup and automatic switching are very important. After the server recovers, I must find a good way to make it more stable. I cannot rely solely on the server provider.

For now, I need to spend several hours recovering the site backup to another server first.

PS: for new order please directly email to sales@vocore.io, our sales will help you handle it directly.
