Update:
Been mostly working on the software. It's tedious but it is coming along.
I bought a cheap ($5) 16 gig sd card at walmart. I plan to burn an image to it, hook up the sdcard extension thing a ma jiggy.
Will test it for a few days, if the card doesnt crap out after a while, I may re-implement the extension cable.

I added a opto isolator to control the fan. Now it only comes on when needed.



This OS (Raspian Buster I will get version # later), has a built in function to control the fan.
Pretty neat.


(Sorry didnt know I chopped off left side of pic until I loaded it onto the PC.) Hopefully you can get the gist of it.

Xlobby and Jukeboxes. Been a long time since I played around with that! Awesome that your still at it! Looking good!

Impressive how you are fitting that much hardware into a space that size.

And I could only dream of writing any code in any language!

Highly motivational.
Looking forward to seeing you finish this.

And... is that your Corvette?!

No, but I sure wish it was. There is a Corvette Museum in Bowling Green Ky USA, (Where Corvettes are made), this pic was taken while on a tour of the museum.

Sorry folks I havent been pretty well away from the scene lately. Update on my progress with this project:
I havent done much to it.
I was having a very hard time getting the media player, VLC for python3, to do what I want as far as the play lists from python.
I think I came up with an idea to make it work, but I guess that was about the time I pushed it and my other hobbies aside.
I havent even started on the cabinet yet, was waiting to get the software working like I want it.
I do need to get back on this project, and I also have two other projects gathering dust in my limited space tool shed that I started before this one.
I will try to post some updates soon.
Hope all is well with everyone.
