<summary>Outdated Installation Steps left for reference</summary>
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
----- OLD STEPS (left for manual review, you don't need to run these if you run the First Time Install Script) -----
4. Install dependencies:
```bash
sudo pip3 install --break-system-packages -r requirements.txt
```
--break-system-packages allows us to install without a virtual environment
5. Install rpi-rgb-led-matrix dependencies:
```bash
cd rpi-rgb-led-matrix-master
```
```bash
sudo make build-python PYTHON=$(which python3)
```
```bash
cd bindings/python
sudo python3 setup.py install
```
Test it with:
```bash
python3 -c 'from rgbmatrix import RGBMatrix, RGBMatrixOptions; print("Success!")'
```
## Important: Sound Module Configuration
1. Remove unnecessary services that might interfere with the LED matrix:
```bash
sudo apt-get remove bluez bluez-firmware pi-bluetooth triggerhappy pigpio
```
2. Blacklist the sound module:
```bash
cat <<EOF | sudo tee /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-rgb-matrix.conf
blacklist snd_bcm2835
EOF
```
then execute
```bash
sudo update-initramfs -u
```
3. Reboot:
```bash
sudo reboot
```
## Performance Optimization
To reduce flickering and improve display quality:
1. Edit `/boot/firmware/cmdline.txt`:
```bash
sudo nano /boot/firmware/cmdline.txt
```
2. Add `isolcpus=3` at the end of the line
3. Ctrl + X to exit, Y to save, Enter to Confirm
4. Edit /boot/firmware/config.txt with
```bash
sudo nano /boot/firmware/config.txt
```
6. Edit the `dtparam=audio=on` section to `dtparam=audio=off`
7. Ctrl + X to exit, Y to save, Enter to Confirm
8. Save and reboot:
```bash
sudo reboot
```
## Configuration
### Initial Setup
1. **First-time setup**: (First Time Script should do this for you) Copy the template to create your config:
```bash
cp config/config.template.json config/config.json
```
