LCARS ship status, the Cerritos duty roster from the agenda, a warp core
driven by solar power with Rutherford's advice, and a captain's log under
a viewscreen. Original pixel art in tools/trek_sprites.py.
When the 3D printer (Moonraker current_print_state, `printer`
substitution) is paused or in error, the panel jumps to LCARS Status in
red alert and holds the rotation until it carries on.

Divergence meter (Nixie tubes, world lines and clock), a D-mail sent
through the Phone Microwave using the panel's Message text, the Future
Gadget Lab inventory with live sensors, and a world line chart of today's
solar power. Original pixel art in tools/steins_sprites.py; the sprite
tool is shared between themes and Sprite, sprite(), polar() and arc()
move to el512_pages.h. HomeData gains the message and a 24 h solar
history in 15-minute slots.
The rotation now walks all pages in a random order that is reshuffled
every hour (Still Alive stays out, Now playing is skipped when idle).

Megumin's daily explosion, the Adventurers' Guild quest board (agenda,
weather, solar), Megumin's adventurer card and a party battle against a
giant toad with a live-data battle log. Original 1-bit pixel art lives in
tools/konosuba_sprites.py, which generates konosuba_sprites.h and can
render a preview PNG.
Home data and drawing helpers shared by the themed pages move to
el512_pages.h; the display gains dither_mask() for a dissolve-in intro.

Netrunner HUD, self-solving breach protocol, optics boot-and-scan and a
split HUD with a mini breach matrix, all in the page rotation. The el512
display gains animated_pages / animation_interval (redraw ~15 fps while
shown), page_age_ms() as animation clock, and shift_rows() / invert_rect()
for glitch effects.

- el512_panel.cpp: esp_cpu_get_cycle_count() exists only in ESP-IDF 5;
use cpu_hal_get_cycle_count() on 4.4 (Arduino 2.x), which broke both
PlatformIO environments.
- README: ring-buffer refresh, tear-free status, D1 mini ESP32, new layout
(components/el512, esphome/, home_assistant/), ESPHome setup, Still Alive
paths, and the Wi-Fi blanking findings with wiring advice.
- docs/README: ring, lookup table, double buffer, health counters; tear-free
and memory items done; Wi-Fi blanking and boot blanking as open items.

The source page splits some lines into several spans; a browser renders the
whitespace between them as a space, which the importer dropped ("becausewe").
It now adds that space. Regenerated imported.h.
Add a photo of the demo on the panel to the README.

Commit src/still_alive/imported.h instead of ignoring it. The importer now
writes a source reference (SDSkyKlouD/still-alive-web) and a disclaimer
(Jonathan Coulton / Valve, personal non-commercial use, not affiliated) at
the top of the file; the README carries the same disclaimer.

- src/still_alive: timed console text, typed scrolling credits and ASCII art,
laid out for 512x256 (41x31 console, 41x9 credits, 41x20 picture).
Plays placeholder content unless imported.h exists.
- tools/import_still_alive.py: generates the git-ignored imported.h (text,
timing, art, credits) from SDSkyKlouD/still-alive-web.
- platformio.ini: envs still_alive (default) and esp32dev (test images,
moved to src/test_images).

PCNT measurement showed I2S0 BCK (VCLK) rising once per two bytes in 8-bit
LCD mode, so the panel saw every other byte. Each VCLK is now two identical
bytes at a 10 MHz byte rate (VCLK 5 MHz). The doubled ~142 KB stream is
allocated as 38 per-descriptor chunks.
The test sketch now cycles through 12 labelled test images.

The datasheet numbers columns from 1 (Fig. 3: "row 1", "Last pixel
(512 / 256)") and puts odd columns on TVID, so x = 0 (column 1) now
goes to TVID and x = 1 to VID; the encoder had them swapped.
README wiring now lists the J1/J2 pins and power rails from Table 1,
the 5 V buffer, and a pull-down on ENABLE so the panel stays off while
the ESP32 boots without VCLK. encodeRow() documents its T4/T5 margins.
docs/README.md open items are regrouped into done, hardware checks and
software work. main.cpp counts seconds, not frames.

The datasheet (docs/datasheet, Planar 020-0354-00A) is now stated as the
source of truth. Two-bit mode is PS1 jumper 2 (DCONFIG) removed
(Table 3), not a generic "mode jumper". The README timing table now lists
the Table 5/6 limits beside our values, and the notes add T1-T8, the
8 ns setup/hold from Figure 4 and the input levels from Table 4.

startI2S() sets up I2S0 in 8-bit parallel (LCD) mode at 5 MHz
(PLL_D2 160 MHz / 32, BCK div 1), routes stream bits 0..3 to
VID/TVID/HS/VS via I2S0O_DATA_OUT16+n and BCK to VCLK, and loops
DMA over an 18-descriptor chain of whole lines. stopI2S() stops TX,
returns the pins to GPIO low and frees the chain.
encodeRow() now stores clock c at c ^ 2 to match the 8-bit mode
byte order (bytes 2, 3, 0, 1 per word, as in bitluni's ESP32Lib).
Builds with no warnings; not yet checked on hardware.

PlatformIO skeleton (esp32dev, Arduino, Adafruit GFX) with a local EL512
library: EL512Panel (1 bpp framebuffer, two-bit-mode row encoder, I2S DMA
refresh stub) and EL512_GFX (Adafruit_GFX subclass). Adds a test sketch,
pin map, README with wiring and timing, and moves the datasheet to
docs/datasheet/.
