LVGL Memory Allocation Issues on ESP32 with esp_lcd

anyone worked with LVGL in ESP IDF?

  1. te0#0000

    i am using the “esp_lcd“ component, which works, but the MCU raises errors at the “ lv_display_t* myDisplay = lv_display_create(320,240);“

  2. te0#0000

    i lowered down the LVGL memory to 10 KB

  3. te0#0000

    “`40811850: 0x0000000a 0x000000f0 0x4080e084 0x4200aff6 0x00000008 0x00000000 0x4080e084 0x4200bb86

    Have you checked that you have enough memory to allocate that? Perhaps check usage with something like ` heap_caps_get_free_size` to see how much is used. You can also consider enabling `LV_USE_ASSERT_MEM` in your lv_conf so you can discover what is actually happening with the memory

  5. te0#0000

    i have 400 KB available

  6. Camila_99$$#0000

    @te08363 LVGL might be running into trouble with the 10KB limit you’ve set. You could try giving it a bit more memory to work with or optimize the buffer settings.

  7. ZacckOsiemo#0000

    ok thats odd would you be able to do the LVGl configuration to see what ces up?

  8. te0#0000

    im such a bastard, i forgot to do “lv_init()“ in the beginning
