SlowPlayer

A slow movie player on the Waveshare e-paper screen for Rasperry Pi. Inspired by How to Build a Very Slow Movie Player for £120 in 2020 by @TomWhitwell

Requirements

You'd have to install ffmpeg and imagemagick to make it work.

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install imagemagick ffmpeg

To compile the IT8951 code you'd have also to install the bcm2835 library.

wget http://www.airspayce.com/mikem/bcm2835/bcm2835-1.68.tar.gz                       
tar xvfz bcm2835-1.68.tar.gz
cd bcm2835-1.68
./configure
make
sudo make install

After that you can compile IT8951

cd slowplayer/IT8951/
make

Install cron job

crontab < crontab
