Hi all! Tidbyt looks really cool, especially with all the community support surrounding it.
I already own a Raspberry Pi + Adafruit RGB LED Matrix. Is there any way to get the Tidbyt software running on a Raspberry Pi so I could use this awesome ecosystem on the hardware I already own?
If not, what would need to be done to get this working? A challenge like this sounds like fun.
Thanks!
I gave up on this idea and actually bought a Tidbyt, however, I would still love to do this since I have a raspberry pi and LED matrix and adafruit hat. Is anyone successfully done this and how? I would love to have a second tidbyt!
You won’t be able to use Tidbyt phone app. However you can display Tidbyt Starlark app on the matrix through a custom firmware on ESP32 and use Raspberry as a server. Alternatively you can also write a custom code on a raspberry to display image directly to the matrix
