Teensy 2.0 With VS1053

Hi there. (btw sorry for my english)

Trust me when I said that I've tried alot of libraries, tweaks and readings before posting here. I really like to find my problem on my own, but I think I've exhausted all forum/git/demo/etc that exists.

I am trying to play mp3 files from an SD card with a VS1003/VS1053 board (see attached picture of the exact board)

After alot of trial and error, the closest I've come is: No error, all Serial output trace look ok, weird wub coming out of the speaker that seems to follow the spi transfer of every mp3 block send to buffer.

My last try was with the adafruit_vs1053 revised by Paul to add teensy 2 and 3 support.
(https://github.com/PaulStoffregen/Adafruit_VS1053_Library)

And ued the play file example. (Modified to my need)

I've defined the spi pins (hardware)
#define CLK 1 // SPI Clock, shared with SD card
#define MISO 3 // Input data, from VS1053/SD card
#define MOSI 2 // Output data, to VS1053/SD card

And define all the chip select/reset/dreq as such
#define RESET 9 // VS1053 reset pin (output)
#define CS 10 // VS1053 chip select pin (output)
#define DCS 8 // VS1053 Data/command select pin (output)
#define CARDCS 4 // Card chip select pin
#define DREQ 6 // VS1053 Data request, ideally an Interrupt pin
(For DREQ, I have try 5 also since it's suppose to be Interrupt 0 (and 6 = int1)

I have also try to change: #define VS1053_FILEPLAYER_PIN_INT 5
from 5 to 6 and vice versa. Trying to fit DREQ

I have commented the timer line and uncommented the dreq int
// musicPlayer.useInterrupt(VS1053_FILEPLAYER_TIMER0_INT); // timer int
musicPlayer.useInterrupt(VS1053_FILEPLAYER_PIN_INT); // DREQ int

Tried with only playFullFile and then only startPlayingFile

All those tests basically give me the same behavior: no error, everything fine, but weird noise wub in speaker while buffering/playing

then it stop wubbing as soon as we arrive at

currentTrack.close()

Then nothing else seems to happen. the file.close works, then I suppose it return to the
while (playingMusic) {
feedBuffer();
}

But never go past here.

In resumé, I feel like everything should works but maybe something really obvious is wrong and I need another pair of eyes.

I don't want to clutter the thread with my example code (think the most important bits are there) but if needed I can post one of my latest variant.

Thanks you alot for any small hint/help/encouragement :p

Just to be sure. I have no problem communicating via SPI to the vs1053, I can change and read the mode/status or any addresss.

Also I can read/write file on the SD without any problem (pretty sure the code block with a !Sd.begin somewhere if it can't read the sd)

And there is the dumpReq

Using Hardware SPI
Mode = 0x4890
Stat = 0x840
ClkF = 0x6000
Vol. = 0x2828

Sorry i should mention that, from ebay, I though it was the same chip with a different breakboard. I ve attached the datasheets that came with it. thanks very much!

Here's the other thread where this library was mentioned. So far, there's no verification if my changes actually work.

Looking at the Adafruit board and this one, they are clearly NOT the same. Adafruit's has a SD card, but this one does not.

Can you post a photo of what you have actually connected? Are you use the SD adaptor from PJRC? If you want help, you really must post much better detail about what you have actually connected. The complete modified code would be good too.
 
Hi again, you can ask for any info, I just didn't want to scare any one with a 20 page long thread :D

So I made a schema, I hope it would be less chaotic, hope it completes the photos of the circuit.

On one of the photo, I hold the same SD module but "face-front" just to show

The "schema.png" is a simplification. You can assume all the gnd/5v are connected properly

and the top yellow rectangle, is the left side of a teensy 2.0 (pin 0 to 10)

<code>
#include <SPI.h>
#include <Adafruit_VS1053.h>
#include <SD.h>

// define the pins used
#define CLK 1 // SPI Clock, shared with SD card
#define MISO 3 // Input data, from VS1053/SD card
#define MOSI 2 // Output data, to VS1053/SD card
// Connect CLK, MISO and MOSI to hardware SPI pins.
// See http://arduino.cc/en/Reference/SPI "Connections"

// These can be any pins:
#define RESET 9 // VS1053 reset pin (output)
#define CS 10 // VS1053 chip select pin (output)
#define DCS 8 // VS1053 Data/command select pin (output)
#define CARDCS 4 // Card chip select pin
#define DREQ 6 // VS1053 Data request, ideally an Interrupt pin

Adafruit_VS1053_FilePlayer musicPlayer = Adafruit_VS1053_FilePlayer(RESET, CS, DCS, DREQ, CARDCS);

void setup() {
Serial.begin(9600);
Serial.println("Adafruit VS1053 Simple Test");

musicPlayer.begin(); // initialise the music player
SD.begin(CARDCS); // initialise the SD card

musicPlayer.dumpRegs();

// Set volume for left, right channels. lower numbers == louder volume!
musicPlayer.setVolume(20,20);

// musicPlayer.useInterrupt(VS1053_FILEPLAYER_TIMER0_INT); // timer int
musicPlayer.useInterrupt(VS1053_FILEPLAYER_PIN_INT); // DREQ int

Serial.println("Calling playFullFile");
// Play one file, don't return until complete
musicPlayer.playFullFile("track001.mp3");

Serial.println("setup done");
// Play another file in the background, REQUIRES interrupts!
// musicPlayer.startPlayingFile("track002.mp3");
}

void loop() {
// File is playing in the background
if (! musicPlayer.playingMusic)
Serial.println("Done playing music");

delay(1000);
}
</code>

yes (sorry took me couple minutes to setup the pins)

Initializing SD card...initialization done.

TRACK001.MP3 1766142
TRACK002.MP3 7110656
TRACK003.MP3 9666560
done!

(same circuit used)
 
That's a good sign. :)

I'm afraid I can't help much with these VS1053 boards. On the other thread, Brandonlynne reported Adafruit's library does work with Teensy 2.0, at least with Adafruit's VS1053 module. Maybe this other VS1053 module is different somehow?

I do not have either of those VS1053 modules, so there's not much more I can do to help.
 
Thanks alot anyways. :D If it wasn't that expensive to ship from my island i would send you a copy of the board Im using. I will continue to try to figure it out.

If I do, are you interested in the info?

Have a nice day!
 
Found a working solution.

Hi,

I bought the same board recently and found a solution to your problem. (I originally came to this page to see if anyone can solve my same problem.)

Basically, I modified a source linked from Sparkfun. I had to modify it because the code is from April 2011 and I am using Arduino 1.0*.

Not sure if it matters in your case, but I used a UNO board where SPI pins (MOSI/MISO/SCK) are defaulted to (PIN 11/12/13).
For simplicity, I didn't change that.
Also, the MP3 board I bought does't have the jumper on LINE in. It looks identical to yours otherwise.
This probably does't make a difference.

For reference, on UNO board, Pin 10 must be set to OUTPUT even if you reassign MOSI/MISO/SCK pins to non-default values. Otherwise, SPI won't work.

One more point regarding this chip/board is that they have 2 chip select pins (CS/DCS).
This means only 1 CS pin should be set to LOW at all times.
The realization of this made me drop another sample code I was using, where mp3 clip is played directly from a small defined array values.
In that particular sample, they are not taking care of the CS pins for other SPI devices (SD/TFT, etc).

Source code is below.

It is probably starting in MIDI mode. A lot of clone boards have this issue (they skipped a trace and resistor). Bridge pins 33 and 34 together to put it into MP3 mode.
