@espdorian, I do confirm that I am running the JTAG debugger within VSC both with and without the serial monitor. I did start the testing using ESP-Prog. In that configuration, I had the serial monitor connected either through the target system USB connector or through the ESP-Prog serial interface....

I have been a long time developer on STM32F1/F4/F7/H7 platforms and used several IDEs for that, Now I am learning the ESP32 development principles with ESP IDF. I did experimentation with Arduino, Platformio, Eclipse, and VS Code . For the best debugging experience, I have selected VSC as my ESP32 I...

I did check my versioning procedure with IDF 4.1/0.6.1 This is an example of the project version management based on the hello_world template 1. Prepare for ESP Projects - Create a folder for your ESP Projects, such as C:\Users\name\Documents\ESP_Projects - Create a folder for hello_world project, s...

Perhaps, I didn't describe the use case clearly. It can be assumed that all new projects start from an existing IDF example project. The core question is how to keep multiple versions of the project without github or similar version management tool. In the other IDE tools that I have used, the inter...

I have not touched lounch,json { // Use IntelliSense to learn about possible attributes. // Hover to view descriptions of existing attributes. // For more information, visit: https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=830387 "version": "0.2.0", "configurations": [ { "type": "espidf", "name": "Launch", ...

The system constant MAX_DMA_BUFFER (1024) is the maximum value for i2s_config.dma_buf_len. It cannot be increased. My application allocates buffers and DMA for 256 LEDs, but in the debugging tests I did use only 3 LEDs. In the background, there are no major interrupts. If I cannot solve this, I need...

Thanks for Espressif IDF 0.6.1, this problem in 0.6.0 is now fixed.

I am using an oscilloscope to investigate the problems I have when driving a 16x16 WS2812B LED array with ESP32 Pico D4 using I2S interface. Occasionally I am seeing a gap in the beginning and end of the color bit stream. All the bits are there, but it seems that the I2S DMA goes to sleep for 4..6 u...

There can be several reasons for this error message. In my setup, I am seeing this error message quite often. In all those cases it is related to the JTAG debugger. After I have disconnect and reconnect the debugger USB cable, the problem goes away. I have not been able to determine why and when the...

I do agree that it is not a good practice to introduce vendor specific terminology, when there are already common practices. Here the key is that SPID = MOSI SPIQ = MISO I do recommend that you use VSPI in PICO pins 18, 19, and 23 because the HSPI pins 11, 12, 13, and 14 do collide with the JTAG pin...
