    Macintosh Mini - (yet another) Maclock conversion project

    If the gain is too high, you'll likely hear noise. If lowering the gain solves the problem (and sound is still audible) then you should be set. Buttons are configurable, see here in the docs.

    Macintosh Mini - (yet another) Maclock conversion project

    Congrats on getting up and running! 🙂 Re: brightness control, there's an open issue on the github page that I haven't had a chance to experiment with yet. Re audio noise: I (surprisingly) don't mind it, as I mostly use my Macintosh Mini as a tiny little After Dark screensaver box, which is...

    Macintosh Mini - (yet another) Maclock conversion project
