ESP32-S3 16bit parallel support soon?

[HaenZ33]

Hello everyone, and greetings Bodmer,

I'm reaching out to seek assistance for my setup involving the ESP32-S3 board,
specifically the Adafruit Qualia https://learn.adafruit.com/adafruit-qualia-esp32-s3-for-rgb666-displays
and a 720x720 display with the ST7701S driver https://www.adafruit.com/product/5793.

Adafruit has provided a demo sketch utilizing the Arduino_GFX_library, which functions well with static images. However, it encounters significant issues with moving parts, and unfortunately, no one seems to have a solution for this.

Given my positive experiences with the tft_eSPI library on other displays and setups, and my appreciation for the work you are doing, I am curious if there is a possibility of incorporating 16-bit interface support in the near future?

I appreciate any response. Thanks,
HaenZ

That worked! TY

The above works great. However, I am trying to "pushImage" a large full screen sprite from an associated .h graphics file as part of a gauge. Is gfx->draw16bitBeRGBBitmap the only option? "pushImage" does not seem to work.

Hi all.
I am trying to use TFT_ESPI.h on: matouch_esp32_s3_round GC9A01 to show JPG, not succeeded yet, any help?

Hi all.
I am using matouch_esp32_s3_round which used ESP32S3+GC9A01, looking for solution for it to show JPG by TFT_eSPI.h? any help?
Thanks.
