  1. Hello! For those people with a Xenium modchip, I have made an open source recreation of a legacy adaptor that allowed you to use extremely common and cheap HD44780 compliant character LCD displays with the Xenium modchip SPI interface. The legacy adaptor was called 'SPI2PAR' and has long since been out of production and extremely hard to come by. The old website actually still works for now (http://cheaplpc.com/xenlcd/) if you want to see what it was all about. This design and info is all on my github page https://github.com/Ryzee119/spi2par2019 It does everything the old one does I believe (although I never had one), but it also can read the Xbox SMBus directly with a couple extra wires to the LPC header for temperatures from the ADM1032 onboard temperature chip and fan speed which are displayed and updated on the LCD mid-game. It can also read the Conexant and Focus video chips to work out was resolution your game is running at which is displayed on the LCD aswell. (This doesnt work on a 1.6 though due to the Xcalibur chip) XBMC can already display these, but these extra SMBus features will only apply when you're in a game or program that doesn't normally support LCD. Works best on a 20x4 character display.

  2. I dont think that these values are able to be pulled from the SMBUS

  3. I remember doing that some time ago, had to edit the file for a 16x2 LCD support. Everything was cut half before the edits, because code was sending data for a 4 row lcd, but mine was 2 only.

  4. XBMC can actually display temperatures by modifying the /system/UserData/LCD.xml There is parameters called lcd.cputemperature, lcd.gputemperature, lcd.hddtemperature and lcd.fanspeed But these are not displayed outside of XBMC. The advantage of this board is that it can read these from the Xbox SMBus so can update it always regardless of the program running.

  5. I will probably just create a basic LCD interface kinda like the Xaddons LCD-mod board. As an educational experience i'll just design something from scratch @eustachy1973 yes! that's what I was looking for. I needed that register map to hook LPC data through my CPLD. I was using the XblastOS source code before, but this is nicer.
