I think the issue is that you have 'Transparent' set to 1 in the print statements - where the value is fixed this doesn't cause an issue - but where it changes you'll get a gradual build up to a 'splodge'.

If it's programming AOK from the Arduino IDE - it's worth setting that to show 'verbose' output during upload (File->Preferences) then have a look at the command line used for avrdude by the IDE - compare this with the output from Flowcode during compilation / upload. The old bootloader for the Nano...

I tried the TinyUSB component too - but couldn't get it to compile (5.5 or 5.4)

Seemed to be an issue with downloading it - will have a look at the examples too.

Hi Stefan, Can you try this - run idf.py menuconfig component config - esp system settings - channel for console output -> Set this to USBSerial/JTAG Controller NB - target must be set as an esp32s3 (idf.py set-target esp32s3) Check if usual debug is then sent to USB (using PuTTY for exanple) Then t...

I'll have a look- it should be possible using the OTG USB interface...

NB - it has captions....

Hi Sadik, I've attempted a video (my hat is off to anyone who can work video editing (or indeed any graphics editing) software... So - not very polished - I've clipped a few bits (download took ~20mins and install ~5mins). Uploading the video takes a wee while! I actually chose the wrong target - es...

Recording it wasn't as easy as the tutorial videos make it look.....

Still - upgrade to v5.5 worked AOK - download - install - run install.bat - point FC at new toolchain - compile.

Note that I don't use the MatrixTSL scheme - I use my own batch file (as mentioned). So proceed carefully (if you have a working system then VERY carefully - backups are good) I use the espressif installer (from https://dl.espressif.com/dl/esp-idf/?idf=4.4VScode) and I install the frameworks to thei...

It looks like the PICKit3 should be compatible - see section 39 in the datasheet. Is your PICKit firmware up to date - and how do you have it wired to the MCU? Also it might be worth trying PICKitPlus software (see PICKitPlus.co.uk) - again the specific chip you have is listed in their documentation...
