Re: PWM Audio Guide

^^ It's not really a mistake. You have to pick which side you want outputted as the mono channel. Either the left or the right side sent to the GPIO driver which is either 2 or 4. Both will work.

Re: Rushing things is the best way to break things. WAS: Powerboost issues

No way, seriously? Check to see if it's the SD card first. I've corrupted two now. And the first initial feeling was that I did something to the the Pi itself. Yes, sadly it is the Pi. I though the same first, but put the SD Card into another RPi0 and it worked. I also tried another SD Card in the ...

Re: BW 3.5" Composite Display - Variant 2

It must be triggered by different resistance per each button or else how can you register three to four different buttons on 2 wires?

PS: I had (and have ordered another of) this exact board so if you figure it out, let us know! :)

Re: Want to build the GB Zero - where to get parts in germany?

I bought two broken gameboys on Klein angezeigen for 10€. Exp-tech.de and flikto.de and conrad.de have many of the components available. For the screen, Amazon is your best bet. Also check the buy, sell, trade forum as many people have spare parts for sale. Myself included.

Re: Powerboost issues

How did you determine that it's the screen doing it? I have jp2 connectors for the power on each device (pi, usb hub, screen, audio amp). So I unplugged each one, one by one until it stopped doing that weird failure to boot. When I unplug the screen and boot up, it boots up normally. When the scree...

Re: Powerboost issues

So, it seems like it's the driver board of the screen. When I screw the two halves together, it shorts. I'm using Kapton tape all around so nothing is physically touching it to short.
