ok, I think I got it.
Though python uses True/False for booleans, the value in the config file has to be lower case.

So please use:

config.lcd.flip=true

Yes, I just verified that was the problem (lowercase), before I read your post. I noticed all the other settings in the file were lowercase so I tried that, but... The behavior isn't what one might expect, see attached lcd-shot... ;)

You'll notice beyond the "broken" display, the characters are still right side up, although reversed left to right & swapped top to bottom, i.e the channel is A&E and is usually on top of the display and the time is 14:42, usually on the bottom right ...

In standby it looks like it wants to display correctly, upside down, but the characters are so broken up it's a pretty subjective guess. From across the room it looks like an upside down 14:52, but up close it's so jumbled it's hard to believe I thought it was 14:52 from across the room... ;)

We'll need to bitswap as well.

and now just hope the pixeldata bytes contain horizontal lines, though your picture makes me assume it's worse than that.

Are all the changes contained in enigma, i.e. can I just rebuild enigma to test?

Ps. I have no use for flipped LCD, just had some time and thought I'd help... ;)

Unfortunately it looks the same & I'm pretty sure I made no mistakes. Your last 3 enigma commits were in the logs for 10 min before I built a new image. I went init 2, renamed /usr/bin/emigma2 to /usr/bin/enigma2~ & copied the new enigma from my build environment ( build-dm800/tmp/rootfs/openpli-enigma2-image/usr/bin/enigma2) to the 800's /usr/bin & went back into normal init 3... Unfortunately the screenshot looks basically identical...

Could you try to find out which 'is_oled' value the dm800 uses?

btw, for 8bpp displays (or for 1bit displays which use 8 bits per pixel), the bitswap makes no sense. So that might explain why you see no difference.

Ya, if you tell me where to look... ;)

Anyway, I take it my final attempt didn't work?

@pieterg & @hemispherical1

Thanks for the help; I, of course, have no idea what you are doing/trying but appreciate it anyway.

Sorry, not a coder. I can build other folk's creations, but you lose me at eDebug...

Last attempt looked identical to the previous 2. It's dark here now so I can't take a picture (flash washed out the lcd)...

Do you know whether it's a 128x64 or 132x64 display?

Did a check on all related LCD files in my DM800 and I did not find any reference to size of display. As near as I can tell it is black and white (greyish) and measures 25mm W by 15 mm high.

Sorry I cannot help you out more.
