Vláďa Smitka @smitka.bsky.social · 12/08/2026A New Life for Obsolete Hardware!! I reverse-engineered an old HDMI capture box and, using AI, created new firmware for it, added new features, and unlocked capabilities that the manufacturer had blocked for some mysterious reason (such as 640x480 resolution). chiptron.eu/reviving-old...chiptron.euReviving Old Unsupported Devices with AI - AVerMedia Game Capture HD III opened the AVerMedia Game Capture HD II like a small Linux box: firmware reverse engineering, a root shell and custom software built with AI – RTSP, 640×480 and 60 fps. 111

Picogame is a 2D game engine for CircuitPython - native C core, game logic in Python, browser simulator. 000
Vláďa Smitka @smitka.bsky.social · 27/07/2026The font is internal Terminus from terminalio (again for save some resources). The PicoPad 320x240 version is here github.com/MakerClassCZ... 010
Vláďa Smitka @smitka.bsky.social · 27/07/2026I had to halve the resolution - the display is only 320x240, and thanks to the lower assets resolution, the RP2040 can handle it. Source code will be available soon 😉 110
Vláďa Smitka @smitka.bsky.social · 24/07/2026I've published a #picogame version of Moon Miner. The source code is commented so it should be clear where and why it differs from the original. You'll need my CircuitPython build with the engine. github.com/MakerClassCZ...github.comGitHub - MakerClassCZ/MoonMiner-picogame: Moon Miner by Dan Cogliano ported to the picogame engine (Adafruit Fruit Jam, 640x480) - annotated as a worked engine exampleMoon Miner by Dan Cogliano ported to the picogame engine (Adafruit Fruit Jam, 640x480) - annotated as a worked engine example - MakerClassCZ/MoonMiner-picogame 130
Vláďa Smitka @smitka.bsky.social · 24/07/2026I'm developing a new game engine #picogame for CircuitPython, and I've ported your game to it. As a bonus, the code is about 40% smaller because it takes advantage of the native engine's features 🙂 I will share the code soon. picogame.makerclass.czpicogame.makerclass.czpicogameMake little games for MCUs in Python. Try them in your browser or on your PC, then play on PicoPad and other boards running picogame firmware. 121
Vláďa Smitka @smitka.bsky.social · 24/07/2026Hey @cogliano.bsky.social, I tweaked your Moon Miner for @circuitpython.org a bit, and now it runs at 95 FPS on FruitJam and even plays on the @raspberrypi.com RP2040 🙂. Really nice game! #picogame 232
Vláďa Smitka @smitka.bsky.social · 07/09/2025Synology jsou dobrá volba, je nové modely myslím vyžadují originální Synology disky. Není to zásadní problém, ale trochu to snižuje flexibilitu. Z toho důvodu bych volil starší model DS224+. 110
