Which board are you using? I have one of these kicking around, I can try it on my S905X.

Ok, I don’t have a lot of experience with SPI, but I’ll give it a try. I’m working a lot of overtime right now, so it might be a bit.

Instead of the Raspberry Pi SPI instructions, you can enable SPI on Le Potato like this: [image] How to Enable SPI on AML-S905X-CC Le Potato Hardware Le Potato supports hardware SPI on the 40-pin GPIO header with the same pinout as Raspberry Pi 2/3/4 Model B/B+ boards. …

I think something still needs to replace that RPi.GPIO library to handle that one lonely reset pin. I have a rough idea how do do it, just need the time. If I’m not too exhausted after work, I’ll give it a crack tonight. 70 hr. weeks don’t leave a lot of time for tinkering. Also, I had to download …

RPi.GPIO is not a good library. Best to avoid using it in any application. To modify a GPIO, look up the GPIO chip number and line number and use those directly via libgpiod.

Thank you so much for your time! No worries about the speed, take your time.
