All things me.

Tonight I tried to get the volume control working for the πFi. I followed a guide on how to make it, but I failed miserably. I’m still not sure what it is that isn’t working, and that’s the problem.

I have zero prior experience with using the GPIO’s of the Raspberry Pi, and using them while using the HiFiBerry makes it even more complicated so I need to rethink this.

I’m going to place an order for a proper break-out board for the GPIO and some additional components to be able to breadboard and try things out, and I’ll need to put the physical controls part of the project on hold until that has been delivered.

Time for an experiment. November will NoPodcastvember. I’ve just deleted Overcast, so let’s see if this works.

On a related note, does anyone have any suggestions for great audio books app? Apps for playing back files that is, not subscription services for audiobooks.
