MexSpa Team contribution for FT81xMania
Library for STM32F1x, STM32F4x, STM32F7x and Teensy 3.5/6 AND 4.0 based on library Gameduino 3/3X Playback videos .avi with sound, from a microSD reader for FTDI; FT810, FT811 and FT813 screens and BT81x series, Teensy 3.5/6 and 4.0
We are an enthusiastic team of screens based on FTDI chip. We like programming and share our advances. We have reached this goal, our only interest is to give the opportunity to operate this library to multiple platforms of MCU's in the market. Wait for you to enjoy the codes, of our, your time. Two friends, in Mexico and another in Spain, the water or the puddle does not scare us ... Last month of May, a member of the Team, we left. We move on. Without any interest, we publish this library altruistically.
- Library based on James Bowman
- Library based on lightcalamar GD23STM32_F103x > programmed and modified by @TFTLCDCyg
- Library based on STM32_GD2 user @nopnop2002 this link
Library with function special playback videos on MCU's STM32F103x, STM32F407x, Nucleo-STM32F767ZI and Teensy 3.5/6. This library is compatible with the STM32 families described above. For any other MCU's you can use Unified Library GD23Z. All commands are equal to library genuine from James Bowman Gameduino 2/3 last release.

It is not yet possible to play videos. To be working very hard and we hope to give the big surprise with this MCU. At the moment only work very fine with library Unified Library GD23Z.
Today test 700x400 pixels, work very well. Demo file
1.June 8, 2018 increase in 790 x 470 pixels videos work very fine. 2.June 12, 2018 maximum resolution of videos is 790 x 470 pixels.
Donmload and install the Core STM32_Core Oficial by STM32Duino
- Add boards STM32duino via IDE Arduino
- Same Linux instalation
See wiki. Information
- To calibrate the FT81x screens in STM32Fx we need an external EEPROM. You can download the AT24C32 library from this link
- Library SdFat for STM32F be included in core STMGENERIC. This be edited to work in STM32. DO NOT USE the official library. It will not work in STM32 architecture.
- These screens have a problem, being the length of the SPI BUS cables. The purpose is to be very short, between 7 and 10 mm. Also a tip is to use on this same SPI BUS some pull-up resistors. Be a solution of a forum user by @raufjay
- Matrix Orbital EVE 2, 3 and 4 series.
- New Haven Display Location in the USA, Boston, great finish quality.
- HotMCU Good prices and good design with frame included. Only produce 5 and 4.3 inches, models FT800, FT810 and FT11. Origin; Singapore
- Riverdi Display Quality and variety of screens, their origin; Poland.
- Gameduino 3 Original Gameduino3 by James Bowman, release in December 2017, 4.3-inch screen and FT810, UK online store.

- A book by James Bowman
- Service Manual by @lightcalamar for Arduino, models; UNO r3 and MEGA (Spanish language)
- Utility for transformation of images and assets on repository
- Designer Editor Maybe the best version for FTDI screen design. This version exports the code used to the Gameduino library. Note: this version is out of date, however very useful for your projects. It will greatly reduce the time used in your programming. It is capable of exporting images, to PROGMEM code and many more functions. Discover it!
Donwload files.avi for test library
Using this conversion tool is very simple. Read topic, this link attached file software you can convert any video to play.
