[00:01:39] <Navit> [discord] <Archen Von Dreknov> no luck... its dead dead. I did file a request at the aliexpress seller... Waiting for an answer now. My hopes are not super high tho :/ refounds are usually hard on this kind of websites
[00:02:13] <Navit> [discord] <Bizzmark> Oooh, yeah, I almost always buy on ebay and amazon where refunds are almost guaranteed
[00:02:22] <Navit> [discord] <Bizzmark> at least in the US
[00:03:15] <Navit> [discord] <Archen Von Dreknov> yeah... well, the exact same screen on amazon was literally twice the pice
[00:03:21] <Navit> [discord] <Archen Von Dreknov> i took the cheap option
[00:03:46] <Navit> [discord] <Archen Von Dreknov> i paid 41€ on alie, listing is 80.99€ on amazon
[00:04:12] <Navit> [discord] <Bizzmark> Well ... now it looks like it's gonna cost you at least 82, so ..
[00:05:13] <Navit> [discord] <Bizzmark> Could try to do a chargeback if you used a credit card. Most have inherent consumer protection. Again, at least in the US; I don't know about other markets.
[00:07:31] <Navit> [discord] <Archen Von Dreknov> hmm i could look into that yes
[00:08:46] <Navit> [discord] <Archen Von Dreknov> not it they understand that the product essentially arrived broken (i mean, with 4h of uptime at most, i still consider this DOA),im hoping they'll agree to send a replacement

[05:25:21] <Navit> [discord] <jkoan> You can trigger a redraw from a command. The command is redraw ;)
[05:27:36] <Navit> [discord] <jkoan> You can trigger a redraw from a command. The command is refresh ;)
[05:32:15] <Navit> [discord] <jkoan> See https://wiki.navit-project.org/index.php/OSD and https://wiki.navit-project.org/index.php/Command_interface
[08:55:52] <Navit> [discord] <Archen Von Dreknov> Good to know. But i'd need to trigger a redraw when navigation starts and ends, not from an osd item i think 🤔
[08:56:32] <Navit> [discord] <jkoan> But how do you change which osd configuration is active?
[08:58:18] <Navit> [discord] <Archen Von Dreknov> Im using the example from the doc that detects if we are in nav mode or not
[08:59:26] <Navit> [discord] <Archen Von Dreknov> The cmd_interface thing
[09:01:11] <Navit> [discord] <Archen Von Dreknov> Whats weird is, all the guiding elements of the osd that are using the osd_configuration tag are updating as soon as the guidance starts and stops, but the button type doesnt seem to respond untill the next redraw
[11:20:43] <Navit> [discord] <Archen Von Dreknov> update on my music player integration. Its not perfect, but i have something :
[11:20:44] <Navit> [discord] <Archen Von Dreknov> the playerctl package lets you control audio players from terminal, provided it can be seen by the system as a player. Rhythmbox is one of them.
[11:20:46] <Navit> [discord] <Archen Von Dreknov> You can then have 3 buttons that can spawn a playerctl command next, play-pause and previous and have basic controls
[11:21:57] <Navit> [discord] <Archen Von Dreknov> the good thing is that playerctl also provides volume adjustments so you can lower the volume of the music while the system is playing audio instructions using playertcl volume and the get it back up after the audio has played
[11:22:36] <Navit> [discord] <Archen Von Dreknov> downside : i havnt found a clean way of starting rhythmbox from navit yet, nor did i find a way to display the name of the track playing... Yet
[11:35:08] <Navit> [discord] <Archen Von Dreknov> can the content ou a text field be changed based on the output of a spawn command ?
[13:17:44] <Navit> [discord] <Archen Von Dreknov> @Bizzmark Want a joke ? chinese screens seem to be having self healing features. I left it plugged in on my pc for like an hour after taking video evidence of it not working as the seller requested. When i saw i had left it plugged in, i went to unplug it and... realised it was on. Displaying an all
[13:17:44] <Navit> [discord] <Archen Von Dreknov> wtf
[13:17:59] <Navit> [discord] <Archen Von Dreknov> it might die again soon tho xD
[14:16:55] <Navit> [discord] <Archen Von Dreknov> these dont seem to be up to date anymore : for example setting command="gui.locale()" or gui.abort_navigation() lead to error "invalid command ignored : locale (or abort_navigation)"
[14:46:13] <Navit> [discord] <Archen Von Dreknov> OK so quick summuary of where im at, cuz my progress is kind of a mess :
[14:46:13] <Navit> [discord] <Archen Von Dreknov>     - Im still having trouble having a button that starts and stops navigation depending on if we already are navigating or not. By starting navigation, i mean opening the adress finder thing, equivalent to ctrl + d. Using navigation.abort() as a command for the button doesnt work as it considers the command as invalid. I also cant seem to be getting the osd_configuration flag for transitionning between the two buttons
[14:46:15] <Navit> [discord] <Archen Von Dreknov>    - as for audio controls, im trying to get a text item that changes dynamically to be able to display the currently played soundtrack. I can gather this info through a spawn command that asks playerctl to print metadata, but idk if a text labe can call a spawn command and use its output. I tried with no success. 
[14:46:16] <Navit> [discord] <Archen Von Dreknov> 
[14:46:17] <Navit> [discord] <Archen Von Dreknov> Apart from that, my navit is, i think, ready for service ! @jkoan

[16:42:17] <Navit> [discord] <Bizzmark> In my experience, electronics rarely have the decency to die and stay dead. They'll start working, stop working, start working, work a little bit, stop working intermittently. Ex.: everyone's had a WiFi router that they have to power cycle once a month, then once a week, then once a day to get things to stay connected to it.
[16:42:55] <Navit> [discord] <Archen Von Dreknov> hmm yeah thats true
[16:45:21] <Navit> [discord] <Archen Von Dreknov> the worst part is, when it was dead it still had touch control working, and was detected by my computer
[16:45:30] <Navit> [discord] <Archen Von Dreknov> it just did want to output anything
[17:08:30] *** Joins: Celelibi (celelibi@freenode/user/Celelibi)
[17:14:38] <Navit> [discord] <jkoan> The playerctl is interesting, probably we could integrate if as a navit audio plugin as well
[17:40:06] <Navit> [discord] <Archen Von Dreknov> yeah i think it would work well, assuming we can get it the "now playing" thing working
[17:40:10] <Navit> [discord] <Archen Von Dreknov> any idea ?
[17:40:50] <Navit> [discord] <Archen Von Dreknov> the only thing left to figure out is this tbh, if we can do a dynamically set text label, its already working
[18:17:54] <Navit> [discord] <jkoan> I was talking about integration with the audio framework as a plugin so no other configuration would be required
[18:40:17] <Navit> [discord] <Archen Von Dreknov> Hmm i found traces of it on the old wiki and couldn't get it working
[18:40:56] <Navit> [discord] <Archen Von Dreknov> Probably for the same reason I couldn't get the abort_navigation() commands working
