Add support for more than 1 custom light show on the USB drive

Open jsevedge opened this issue 3 years ago • 9 comments

I was able to build a custom light show in a few hours using the directions provided in this repo, thanks much team!

Feature Request: It would be great if the Tesla car logic for light show discovery was enhanced to support multiple custom light shows, either using a config driven format such as a JSON/YAML config file with some metadata about the location of each light show on the usb drive OR even simpler each top level folder (if not named LightShow) could contain a custom light show and the name of the folder would show up in a picker on the screen.

Feels like this feature is on its way looking at the new UI 20221226_090217 Any update?

+1 this is like a must-have feature now with the new UI!

If we could simply just name all of the files differently inside the LightShow folder, I think that would be more than enough. On the system side, just search for all files that are .fseq inside the folder, and check to make sure a matching song (same name) is present when you tap it.

@simon2022 are you saying the holiday uodate adds support for multiple light show files? Are you able to please post a photo of the screen showing this?

I have not received the update yet, so I cannot confirm

Yes, it was mantioned in the details. However it is not clear how to get this working... It says all show must be put in the LightShow folder, but how to do this if it needs to be named the same? Tried subfolders or rename in the lightshow folder, but does not seem to work...

Oh I totally missed that! Awesome, try put them in folders like show1, show2 etc. I will have to wait till I get the update for my car

Ok I just got the update and confirm this now works. In order for it to work your shows need to be in the /LightShow folder and both the .fseq and .wav/.mp3 file need to have the same same. This is what mine looks like: image

And then in the car you will see them all show up, such as this: image
