Hello!
I am using a rpi model b with LE 8.1.1. I have attached a HD44780 20x4 to the GPIO Pins of the RPI and installed the LCDProc addon from the LE repo and the LCDProc addon from the normal repo. In the LE addon i selected HD44780 as Driver.
My lcdd.conf Looks like this:
Code
1.[server]
2.DriverPath=/storage/.kodi/addons/service.lcdd/lib/lcdproc/
3.Driver=hd44780
4.Bind=127.0.0.1
5.Port=13666
6.User=nobody
7.Foreground=no
8.Hello="Welcome to"
9.Hello="LibreELEC"
10.GoodBye="Thanks for using"
11.GoodBye="LibreELEC"
12.WaitTime=5
13.ServerScreen=blank
14.Backlight=open
15.Heartbeat=open
16.TitleSpeed=4
17.[hd44780]
18.ConnectionType=raspberrypi
19.#pin_D4=25
20.#pin_D5=24
21.#pin_D6=23
22.#pin_D7=18
23.#pin_EN=8
24.#pin_RS=7
25.Speed=0
26.Keypad=no
27.Backlight=no
28.OutputPort=no
29.Size=20x4
30.CharMap=hd44780_default
31.DelayBus=trueI also tried ConnectionType=rpi, but the LCDD didnt start. Trying to start the LCDD manualy with ConnectionType=rpi caused this error:
Code
LCDd 0.5dev, LCDproc Protocol 0.3
