Well, interesting. I installed the standard Raspberry Pi OS (32-bit) and the touch screen works just fine as a touch screen. But when I launch the RaceCapture app it doesn't respond to any touch commands. It gets stuck at the opening screen and when I try to press Next or Skip there is no response. ...

This Jessite Lite is command line only, without GUI, correct? https://blog.adafruit.com/2015/12/01/new-official-raspbian-jessie-lite-os-image/ Therefore, I think the equivalent current version should be what I'm using, the Raspberry Pi OS Lite (32-bit) with no desktop environment. But it's probably ...

@brentp since "Jessie Lite" is no longer available, which selection in the Pi Imager should we use? I just tried with other -> Raspberry Pi OS Lite (32bit) thinking I don't really need a desktop environment.... But, the screen works, as a display, touch doesn't work. It works as a display,...

It does seem like it should work on Pi4 https://kivy.readthedocs.io/en/master/installation/installation-rpi.html But, it seems like this requires Kivy 1.11. I can't seem to find a file in the racecapture tarball to change these "environmental variables" to the window and GL backend for RPi...

Somehow, I just noticed, that Raspberry Pi 4 is not yet supported . :( I was just about to order a Raspberry Pi 4, because, same price, more memory, more powerful than 3B+ :D @brentp I'm willing to be beta user ;) It would be my first Raspberry Pi, but, I'm pretty good with computers and know enough...

If logging automatically starts when in dashboard mode what would for the LUA script commands stopLogging() and startLogging() to work? It would be nice to have autologging capability instead of using the dashboard display mode to trigger a recording session. I tried...

No need for OBD2 data. It gets GPS speed from the built-in GPS unit. So as standalone it would give acceleration from the built in IMU and speed from the built in GPS.

Sure, happy to contribute and update the Wiki. Meanwhile, here's some more info on the POST command. The Postman program was super helpful to figuring this out. The easy part is simply sending the command via the Postman command line. What was really helpful was using the Postman feature to view the...

Well, this is interesting. After trying all the ports, and still no serial port response, I decided to add an initSer command to the configuration. (Not sure why this didn't work for me before, when I tried simple commands to read the serial port, expecting to see NMEA messages or something like tha...

I tried that, changed the password and SSID to that of my Virb Ultra 30 and no luck. I can't confirm the WiFi connection. The read serial port doesn't return anything. This is similar to what I reported in that the read serial port doesn't seem to be working. :?: https://forum.autosportlabs.com/view...
