[oliboss]

Version

3.5.3

Branch

future3/main

OS

Raspbian Bookworm 12 - 32 bit

Pi model

Raspberry Pi 4

Hardware

• RFID reader RC533
• HiFi AMP HAT TAS5713 Amplifier Audio Module

What happened?

Current behavior:

• Jukebox is working in terms of playback, library, etc.
• After using break-system-packages on pip installs the RFID reader could be selected and the install script installed all python dependencies
• RFID reader is connected according to the schema on the website
• This simple python script shows the ids from different cards / tokens

#!/usr/bin/env python3
import RPi.GPIO as GPIO
from mfrc522 import SimpleMFRC522
reader = SimpleMFRC522()

try:
        id, text = reader.read()
        print(id)
        print(text)
finally:
        GPIO.cleanup()

• When going in the web interface, select "add a card" and presenting a card nothing happens

Expected behavior:

• Card should be recognized

Have you read through this issue thread for bookworm related issues? There are known issus with gpio.

As of now, you do have to pip swap rpi-gpio with rpi-lgpio.

Thanks a lot for the quick reply.

I got it to work with the lpio replacement but it stopped working soon after - which most likely is due to some other issue.
