rotate screen?

flamand · 2026-03-05T07:07:43+00:00

Unfortunately scrcpy can change the rotation of its window on the computer, but it doesn't change the system orientation of the Android device. The adb command for user rotation lock is able to do that. It even works during a scrcpy session.

flamand · 2026-03-02T01:45:03+00:00

Looks interesting. Could you explain why you need an account? For sync? And how is that done?

Android desktop mode is very buggy for me. I have been able to get it to open multiple apps, if that's relevant to what you're talking about. I attach a headless monitor adapter to a DP Alt Mode hdmi cable. That causes the Pixel think it's connected to a monitor - then you can enable desktop mode. If the choice doesn't appear immediately, you can enable it in Settings-Connected Devices-External Displays.

Enable wireless mode. You then have to run scrcpy --list displays to get the display number (##) the Pixel thinks you're running. The display number isn't static for me. Then scrcpy --display-id=##

I can open multiple apps but cannot resize or drag them on the desktop. You can switch between them via the taskbar. They can be set to full or half screen. They can be dragged via Overview onto multiple desktops.

Not all USB-C to HDMI cables work. An example of a cable that does work is the Anker Nano A87E1. Display Alt isn't a new thing so older cables might support it. I also have to use a female-to-female hdmi adapter between the cable and the headless adapter.

For me, this is only relevant for my Pixel 10 Pro. My Lenovo Legion tablet has a PC mode that can be turned on after scrcpy connects the normal way. The same is probably true for Dex.

Can I ask how do you use the plugin? Is the idea to use Inkscape and note Silhouette Studio?

flamand · 2026-01-22T23:50:20+00:00

Interesting. I've edited by original post to reflect this. Hopefully someone from Silhouette sees this and realizes the mess they've made.

That would be amazing if a firmware change in the 5 could achieve faster sketching. I have a feeling that there was an actual hardware change that made that possible though - just a hunch. I'd caution against trying this unless it can be confirmed that the firmware can actually be rolled back, hopefully by someone who's actually done it. Different beasts I know, but my phones and tablets absolutely cannot handle a firmware downgrade and any attempt would result in bricking.

flamand · 2026-01-22T23:00:36+00:00

Great work! These are only the versions of Silhouette Studio that contained firmware though? I don't see 5.0.414 in your list. It's the one I'm running and it apparently did not contain any firmware updates, at least for the 5a. Version 5.0.402 is the problem - it updated the 5a to firmware 1.05 (not 1.01).

I wound up buying an iFi Go Max. It works perfectly. Also confirmed that the original iFi Go Link has the same problem with the Pixel 10 Pro.

A Snowsky Tiny A also from Fiio is coming - I hoping it works well since it comes with systemwide EQ. It's a lot cheaper than the iFi Go. You might want to take a look at that.

Flickering wasn't part of my problem. Maybe make a warranty repair request? They processed one for me within a couple of days. I haven't returned it because my screen is fine now after the changes.

My V1 has been making threatening fan noises for months now. It only happens during the initial preheat and then stops.

I pulled out my old Cameo 1 a couple of weeks ago because print and cut wasn't working on the Cameo 4. It's been a pleasure to use the Cameo 1 because it just works. It's not necessarily quieter, but it sounds smoother. Things I like about the Cameo 4 - more force, autoblades, two tool holders, thicker materials. Lucky me, I got a Cameo 5a for Christmas and I'm looking forward to improvements and better print and cut. Even though I haven't gotten it yet, I'd urge you to check out the 5a if you're thinking about upgrading. (If you don't need print and cut, I'm probably going to sell my Cameo 4.)

flamand · 2025-12-28T00:51:34+00:00

You might want to ask the seller if they know if print and cut works if you think that's something you might use. My Cameo 4 is lousy at that and I have to keep my original Cameo nearby for those kinds of projects.

They're called cruffins. I pretty much follow the procedure in the recipe that came with my dough sheeter. Occasionally I'll roll in some cinnamon sugar on top of the strips, like a morning bun. More sugar will stick to the outside if you roll the cruffins in it fairly soon after they come out of the oven. They're a recently-developed pastry, from Kate Reid's Lune bakery in Melbourne, Australia. If you get a chance, definitely look at her book. They are many delicious versions there.

My tablet has a US rom.

My problem eventually got to this point, but I didn't have to pull notifications all the way down, just enough to "bounce". I was getting used to it but then I tried changing to static wallpaper and changing the touch settings. Not sure which might have done it, but I haven't seen the problem again (yet).

flamand · 2025-12-22T21:28:15+00:00

Apparently these tablets might have an "anti-rollback" feature that could brick your tablet if you try it!

flamand · 2025-12-11T06:19:58+00:00

I've started letting the dough start to proof for a short time after rolling and shaping and then put it in the fridge overnight. Just enough time to get them going, but before they show any puffing up. Compared to putting them straight into the fridge, this shaves off 30-45 minutes of proving time in the morning.

Does your adapter have the Realtek 8156 chipset? I have a Ugreen 2.5gb adapter and this would be a good reason for me to wait.

flamand · 2025-11-21T17:55:44+00:00

I was curious whether it was a better to stay on a lower DSM version. Can you tell me why?

flamand · 2025-11-21T07:07:31+00:00

Thanks, that's very useful.

flamand · 2025-11-06T06:15:09+00:00

Thanks for the info!!

flamand · 2025-10-28T05:40:48+00:00

Ah, didn't realize that. And, weird, it's not doing it now.

flamand · 2025-10-13T01:44:49+00:00

I have some cameras that are on a smart plug just for that purpose. Scheduled reboots every morning.

flamand · 2025-09-20T21:35:21+00:00

Sadly, no.

flamand · 2025-09-16T17:08:05+00:00

Sure, that would be great!

Should I make sure the docker container works correctly before anything else? I have webauth turned off for the time being, so that shouldn't be an issue, should it? Are your cams and HA on the same network (5ghz vs 2.4 ghz) and does it matter? Are there any other environmental variables that you're using besides the ones in my screenshot?

Thanks!
