Soundfonts error
Closed this issue · 28 comments
i have gotten the soundfonts onto the sd card i have and yet it dosen't work with homebrew lightsaber i hear a blaster sound for boot up and it dosen't use the correct hum sounds instead i hear a r2d2 over and over and over anyone know why this happends
i tried to follow your instructions i reformatted the card i extracted the files without copying them and it still dose the same
i tried again and it is still doing the same i reformated moved the files without copying yet it is still giving me a bad time keep in mind im doing the homebrew side :P
Everything was done as it should, but the last sound is still repeated all the time...
Which sound exactly?
for me all of them
it keeps mixing up the sound fonts and it won't go into boot mode and a lot more
sry about that i acidentaly hit the wrong button
The first sounds boot sound as it should be, then I turn on the saber, all other sounds work as it should, except for clash sound (dont know why), and when I turn off the saber, the last sound begins to repeat itself infinitely and all subsequent sounds in the config mode/
The ic device mounted in your Dplayer module is not the original one. It’s the cause of this wrong behaviour
Any ways to fix it? Or buy the original df player?
In theory your module uses a red led. that’s right?
The good ones are mounting blue LEDs and also there are differences in the pcb silkscreen.
This is good one. You can see white squares around SMDs

You are right, the LED was red, and there was no white squares, I looked in the warehouse and found one such as you described, with a blue LED and squares. I moved them around, but the result was the same.
EDIT:
I was wrong, the sound now corrected, but there was a problem that I can not adjust the sound. he is very loud
except for clash sound (dont know why),
We've added a second clash method that uses the interrupt on the MPU6050 to D2 (interupt method) the old method is polling. You can change this in the config.
i just looked through the messages and my led is also red iv ordered a blue dfplayer led with the white outline i hope it workes for me like it did for you beskor
I think this issue is going to be quite common...
@jbkuma, maybe is good idea to add a comment in the Readme.
There is already a comment in the config files, we should probably change the default method to polling since it is the traditional method.
/*
* CLASH DETECTION METHOD
* Clash can be detected by programming the mpu to trigger an interupt
* on motion. If a motion interrupt is triggered, it can either be
* detected by connecting the MPU's INT signal to D2 of the AVR (-> CLASH_DET_MPU_INT)
* or by polling the INT_STATUS register via I2C and determining the value (-> CLASH_DET_MPU_POLL)
* of bit 6
*/
#define CLASH_DET_MPU_INT
//#define CLASH_DET_MPU_POLL
I thought all the while that the issue with the repeating retraction sound is a fault of fake DFPlayers, until recently I had this issue myself too. It happened exactly 3 times over a period of almost 3 years and a lot of boards I tested, but funnily if I look into the code I must conclude that it should happen in fact all the time (and probably we would have eliminated this bug a long time ago). I will look into this and solve it, should not be very complicated.
i hope so cause i really would love it to work and start mounting leds on it and work on the chassis
k i just installed the new df player its still mixing up the sounds
Hello,
I was having problems like above also. Clash was not being detected and poweroff loops.
Change to #define CLASH_DET_MPU_POLL and clash is working now. Thank you.
The poweroff is still an issue. When I hold the main button down the poweroff sound goes into a loop. a quick press of the main button makes makes the poweron sound followed by hum.
The dfplayer I have has the Blue LED. It does not matter which of the Sound Font banks I choose, the results are always the same, powering off the saber causes the poweroff sound loop indefinitely.
Hi guys. I have the same problem. When the saber is switched on, the sound p2d2 is played. Previously, everything worked perfectly .. can anyone have an old version of the firmware? or somehow you can fix this?
Would it be possible to send a "stand-by" command to the player immediately after playing the poweroff sound? Or is this already being done?
For what it's worth, I've been able to verify what AirmakZ and Protonerd suggested about the MP3 module. I've tried 2 different sellers, both times the module had the blue LED and white squares around the components, but I still ran across looping issue. On a previous post, Protonerd mentioned that the MP3 module that has the YX5200 MP3 chip is the original DFPlayer. On the website, http://www.flyrontech.com/eabout/3.html they claim to be the original manufacturers of the YX5200 chip. I also saw the YX6300 chip which is what is in the Stardust V3 board. So I decided to give them a shot, bought a DFPlayer from one of their partnered distributor http://www.flyrontech.com/eabout/3.html The DFPlayer or FN-M16P as marked from the US distributor, also has the blue LED and the white squares around the components. TLDR: the MP3 module from that seller/manufacturer resolved the looping issue for me. Hope this helps everyone =)
Hi JagdNutCrkr,
In fact silk marks and led color we’re just tricks maybe not valid actually with chinese suppliers current stock.
The best way to confirm if module is good or not is confirm IC serigraphy (XYxxxx) but unfortunately sellers are not giving this information an pictures are not reliables.
Just in case, if you want to recover your bad modules you can order by AliExpress XY IC’s and replace them in your modules. I done it.
You're absolutely right, AirmakZ, the sellers do not advertise which IC they are using. I actually bought one that showed the correct IC on the store page but received a module without the right IC. I bought two more modules from the seller I mentioned, I'll let you know if those are good too.
I also thought about replacing the IC on the bad modules since flyrontech do sell them, but my soldering skills aren't there yet =)
Happy to report the additional MP3 modules I ordered are also good =). Seller is a keeper!
just as a side note: I pushed a new version yesterday, it should fix the repetitive rettaction sounds even for fake DFPlayers (if not, those are not fit for this application).
