It worked great with the Kindle App last night until it started capturing before it would turn the page, but I was about to go to bed anyway.

WOW. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS AWESOME APP!

Thanks jamina1.Good to know that you like it.

you may find interesting here as this is the same epson EPD controller like our Edge?
they released the SDK in the end, while the b*st*rds from Entourage did not bother!

Thanks for the alex SDk vicinc.Sorry I can't get any clue from it for development on PE.

EDIT: after installing 0.1.10 page turn does not work in kindle app.

hi gregounours,thanks for the reply.do you use kindle app in landscape mode or portrait mode?

gregounours · 10-10-2011, 11:02 PM

I tried both and neither work. Wink screen refreshes but the turn page command does not make it to the LCD side.

Anybody else experiencing this?

does it turn the page on lcd?does the app switcher key trigger screen dump?
it works on my pe though.

gregounours · 10-10-2011, 11:13 PM

Dump works but page is not turned. I tried turning the page on LCD and then pressing next page on eink side and the dump is correct.

On a side note on 0.1.9 every other page would be capture Hal turned. Somebody else mentioned this earlier. Is that what you were trying to fix?

yes.I was trying to tune the "turn page" function in 0.1.10. this release rarely gives me a half turned capture.
have you ever completed the "calibration" wizard of lcd2eink?the 0.1.10 uses calibration data produced by that wizard.

gregounours · 10-11-2011, 01:01 AM

I did calibrate and I am able to turn pages forward (not backward) using the pen but not with the button. For the half turned page problem just adding a 1/4 second delay or between page turn signal and capture capture should work. But You are probably working on that already :-)

Hi gregounours,it works fine for my PE so I can't find the real cause for the problem.Anyway I modified some codes which may matter.Could you try the attached revision and let me know the result? Thanks.

Javese,
The moment I saw your original post about lcd2eink 0.1.10 I downloaded it and tried the Kindle app with it and it works well using the page turn buttons. : )
I have not downloaded the 0.10fix1 since the other works well. Does 0.1.10fix1 have anything in it that makes it necessary to install if 0.1.10 is working well already?

gregounours · 10-11-2011, 08:18 PM

It works better overall on eink side of things. There is a weird thing happening on the LCD side on page turn but who cares. Still every once in a while the turn page command does not make it to the LCD side. Hope this help debugging.

Thanks for the info.

Thanks ilovegadgets.If 0.1.10 works well on your pe then it's not necessary to install 0.1.10fix1.I'm still working with gregounours to figure out what's going on with his kindle app.Once done I will make a formal new release.

gregounours · 10-11-2011, 10:39 PM

Are you saying that it works better with an older kindle app? I could downgrade.

No you don't need to downgrade to an older kindle app.I have figured out the root reason for this problem and made a fix.Please try the attached revision and let me know the result. Thanks.
If you have interest,the reason for this problem is that the new kindle app uses more cpu time and handles pen event slower than older.some pen events generated by the turn page function were dropped when busy.
