Spectacular, I am speechless. Excellent work

This looks

Code: Select all

uint16_t i;

for(i = 0; i < 1000; i++)
   printf("very ");


good

I am speechless.

I fully agree with that

Can I excpect a pull request this night, or tomorrow morning? I want to try it so hard

Hi Badger,

just awesome! I guess I'll have to get an LCD as well

[Badger]

Thanks for the comments! It looked much better in real life, my camera was doing strange things (It is a canon 50D that is not supposed to support video, but it has been hacked on by Magic Lantern. Normally it works much better than that!)

I hope to tidy it up and have it ready tomorrow night. Hopefully I wont find any new problems

[Tectu]

I have to say again, Badger, It's very awesome work

Thank you very very much for your contribution on the library, I am sure this will make more users using the library (pointing to mabl )

That is badass, I must say

[Tectu]

Thats true

Did you try the library out, mobyfab? Do you have some new drivers for us?

Not yet, I guess I need to pop out some more resistors to get my SSD1963 LCD work via FSMC on my F4 board.

Haven't had much time to work on it honestly, but I will take a look this weekend.
In the end there's not so much left to do as all the primitive shapes and init/setup functions are done since a while.

I'm pretty excited to see FSMC support come up for the F4Discovery . Wondering what would the HW refresh rate be... A wild guess : 350-400fps maybe (Current rate was 234fps via split GPIO) ? Let's see.

I think I'm really missing the action, only because I need Audio playback support, and I don't feel like tampering with my only (and that too an engineering sample) F4D board .

With an SSD1289 GLCD controller connected over 16-bit GPIO on an STM32F103VET I got over 230fps. I have to say here that all the data Pins are on the same PORT of the STM. This might give a little bit more speed improvement.

I don't think that we have speed issues at the moment
