Flickering Display

[nicedevil007]

Describe the bug
I have a Biqu BX and the display starts flickering after I switch to Octodash. On normal Marlin Mode or Touch UI everything seems to be fine.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Install Octodash as described in the Wiki
2. Switch to Octodash
3. Starting flickering

Expected behavior
No flickering at all

General Information:

• Raspberry Pi 4
• OctoPi (latest official built)
• OctoDash Version (latest official built)
• OctoPrint Version (latest official built)

That is the one that can switch the display between Marlin and Raspberry Pi right? Please double-check all connections and make sure that everything is snug. This most likely is a hardware issue.

I don't know why TouchUI Is fine, maybe it has something to do with that way OctoDash is rendering. I don't have any influence to that part of the code though, so if you're sure that your hardware is all good, please try reinstalling as well.

I just setup my Biqu Bx just recently. Signed up to Github to leave this info for you.
I setup OctoDash because of Teaching Techs instructions on Youtube. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bfhhUVJkP_s

You need to follow these instructions to setup the screen properly. I had this exact problem.

• If you are a BX machine model user, you will need to add the following fragment lines to the RaspberryPi boot/config.txt file to display them correctly on screen:

  max_usb_current=1
  hdmi_group=2
  hdmi_mode=87
  hdmi_cvt 1024 600 60
  hdmi_drive=1

Good Luck :)
