[BUG] screen_refresh with waveshare_2 break display #555
Comments
that is why the plugin has been moved in a separate repo that says use them at your own risk. |
(also there's no real need of full screen refreshes on v2) |
not according to specs : https://www.waveshare.com/wiki/2.13inch_e-Paper_HAT
|
not according to months of testing and our customized codebase, which is different than their examples and sdk |
i get the same severe ghosting and black dotted background after prolonged uptime, maybe it is worth a look into |
Describe the bug
The screen start showing garbage, or even completely crash, when using the screen_refresh plugin on the waveshare v2
To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
Expected behavior
The screen should do a full refresh, and continue to work afterward.
Environment (please complete the following information):
Additional context
Waveshare v2 use partial refresh all the time.
According to Waveshare specs, you should do a full refresh once in a while when using partial mode to avoid ghosting and burn in issue.
Additionally, in my case, I sometimes get quite severe ghosting + black dots in the background, and using the screen_refresh plugin seems to help.
PR about this will follow.
