Peppy player

Sorry your code does not work:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "peppy.py", line 72, in <module>
    from ui.screen.network import NetworkScreen
  File "/home/haegarthehorrible/opt/Peppy/ui/screen/network.py", line 29, in <module>

    inet_addr = None
                   ^
IndentationError: unindent does not match any outer indentation level

But I don't want to bother you any longer with that network stuff. Its your player and your work. I know how much work that is and as long as it works for you and other people i need to figure it out myself.

I don't have problems doing things in the CMD. But I always struggle with Python.

That's copy/paste issue again. You know that Python is indentation based language. There were missing white spaces in several lines. Try this one. If you will see similar errors just add/remove space where error occurs.

    def get_linux_network(self):
        """ Get Linux network info using 'ip' utility.
             If there many entries of the same type (eth or wlan) the function returns the last one.

        :return: network info
        """
        result = {}
        n = subprocess.check_output(["ip", "-j", "a"])
        js = json.loads(n)

        for e in js:
            try:
                e["addr_info"]    
            except:
                continue # if no addr_info
            inet_addr = None
            try:
                for a in e["addr_info"]:
                    if a["family"] == "inet":
                        inet_addr = a["local"]
                        break
            except:
                pass

            if e["ifname"].startswith("e") and inet_addr:
                result[ETHERNET_IP] = inet_addr
            elif e["ifname"].startswith("w") and inet_addr:

        info = self.get_linux_networks()
        try:
            result[WIFI_NETWORK] = info["profile"]

            pass

        return result

New version (Constable Edition) of the Peppy Player was just released.
The disk images with new release are available here:
https://github.com/project-owner/PeppyP ... isk-Images

New features:

• Added the following functionality to the File Menu: alignment, sorting, wrapping and layout.

File Menu * project-owner/Peppy.doc Wiki * GitHub

• Implemented a graceful poweroff.

Power OnOff * project-owner/Peppy.doc Wiki * GitHub

• Patched the bug in the ALSA library. That allowed to enable VU Meter and Spectrum Analyzer screensavers.

• Added support for images embedded into mp4 and m4a audio files.
• Fixed the AirPlay mode issues.
• Upgraded to the latest version of the Tornado web server.
• To fix CD player issues replaced the nonfunctional API endpoint freedb.org by gnudb.org.
• Refactored the Wi-Fi configuration framework.
• Fixed multi-touch driver

Here is the new picoPeppy player.
This is the smallest player in the Peppy family.
It's using the Headless Peppy Player Disk Image.
The player can connect to the Internet via Wi-Fi and to the speaker via Bluetooth.
A Web Browser running on any device in the home network can be used to control the player.
The player can be used to listen to Web Radio, Podcasts and Audiobooks.

CAUTION! This project is only for experienced DIYers as it assumes the work with the high voltage main power. If you are the beginner just connect a regular +5V power supply to the Raspberry Pi Zero W board.

Here is the new addition to the Peppy Player Gallery - BoomBox by Zippo (Germany)

This is very interesting project in the original vintage enclosure. The base of the project is the ghetto blaster which is about 25 years old. It was available for a low price as the cassette player didn't work. Zippo preserved the radio functionality and replaced the cassette player by the Raspberry Pi and display. He connected the audio output of the Raspberry Pi to the magnetic reading head through the low-pass RC filter. That allowed to re-use the original amplifier and speakers. The original volume control can be used as well. The mp3 files can be placed on a separate partition of the USB drive which is automatically mounted via the fstab during booting process.

Here are the components used for the project:
- Raspberry Pi 3B bootable from USB flash drive. The connection to the Ethernet and USB drive is available in the battery compartment
- Display is a waveshare clone where you have to invert the contrasts
- Stop, backward, forward and play buttons connected to the Raspberry Pi GPIO connector
- 5V 3A power supply

good day!
installed by Constable-Walshscher. 3.5. Doesn't see wi-fi. connect only by cable. how to connect via wi-fi? Question 2: there is a USB stick with music. how to play from the player menu?

Hi lazybyby,

Have you tried to follow the steps for connecting Wi-Fi?
Network * project-owner/Peppy.doc Wiki * GitHub
Which Raspberry Pi model do you use?

The player doesn't mount disks (hard or flash drives) for you. You need to do that yourself. After that you can just use the mounted folder from UI as any other folder. I'm planning to add auto-mounting in some of the future releases.

Best regards.

Model PI3B +
I do not show any network when scanning. "Loading" - it burns forever. Is it possible to configure via terminal or web

Did you follow these steps?
