Propeller Demo Board "do-all" demo program?

WBA Consulting

Is there any reason why you can't have a program loaded into the Propeller Demo board that will utilize everything on the demo board at the same time? In other words, have graphics like the Parallax demo run in the upper right of the display data, keyboard input in the upper left, mouse activity in the lower left, audio playing on the audio output, and both the TV and VGA outputs live? I would also like to have a simple plug in board with 8 LEDs for the usable I/O header that would do simple chasing or POV display.

Actually there is a program that does exactly that pre-loaded on the
Demo Board when it ships......

See the attached archive below.....it is a slightly different one from the
pre-loaded one....I tried to find the·pre-loaded one but nobody had it.

However,·I was given one that did almost the same....I then modified it to
do the same .....I think·....as the preloaded program.

I have downloaded the demo program from somewhere in the forums once before, but it doesn't use the keyboard, nor does it have audio. My main question is whether or not the propeller demo board can do everything at the same time. I believe it can with the right program, but wanted confirmation before I start spending time on writing a program just to use as an all inclusive demo.

It does indeed do audio..........it uses the Microphone using the Sigma-Delta ADC and outputs the
input from the Mic to the Headphones.
·
As far as the keyboard...I am not sure....but adding the keyboard is not hard at all I may try to do that.
·
BUT...it definitely does Audio Input and Output.· Connect a headphones to the headphones output
and speak into the microphone or make some noise into it.
·
I changed the one that was given on the forum it to play the LEDs for a bit before it goes into VGA
mode which will cause the LEDs to light up since they are tied to the same pins as the VGA port pins.
·
So other than the Keyboard....it does EVERYTHING else....Audio In/Out, VGA, TV, Mouse, LEDs.
These by no means use all the cogs so there is space for the keyboard too with ease.

Interesting, I'll try the one you attached. The one I had from before must have been tweaked because there was no audio. This answers my question though, so thanks! I'll have to play around with the keyboard object and reconfiguring the display.
