Pisound on Youyeetoo X1

[GianfrixMG]

Hi everyone! I was watching a Youyeetoo X1 review and noticed it has GPIO, SPI and I2C connectors and I was wondering if it would it be in any way possible to use these pins to connect a PiSound. Of course I guess that would also require some trickery to adapt the drivers to X86 at least for Linux, but hardware wise I don’t really know.

These are the things that would have to be ported:

Pisound and Asus Tinker

The important source files are: pisound-overlay.dts pisound.c The first one adds customizations to RPi’s base dts file (also follow the #includes mentioning bcm), so it may need significant changes for the Tinkerboard. It defines some CPU peripheral and gpio pin configurations for Pisound. The 2nd one is the kernel module, it’s fairly generic and based on ALSA’s SOC subsystem, the stuff in ‘pisnd_dai’ may have to be reconfigured for Tinkerboard, as it is referring to some BCM names, the rest…

Nice, so the Asus Tinker works and it has a RK3588. I see the Youyeetoo R1 has a RK3588S and a 30pin GPIO header, so it may work there too. I don’t know if the X1 has enough pins to physically connect a PiSound even with some kind of adapter cable.
