The pi is connected to a 640&#215;480 tft display.<\/p><p>The Pi is running Jessie Lite. The episodes were all compressed specifically for the screen and loaded onto the SD card. When the pi is powered up, through the USB port on the back of the tv, it starts playing episodes at random. When on episode ends the next is randomly selected. The top button is wired up to GPIO and turns the screen on and off while also muting the volume. The bottom is a POT that is connected to the speaker inside.<\/p><p>I designed the TV and parts in Fusion 360 and printed on an ender 3 pro.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>Check out the video below to see the purple Simpsons TV in action.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"A Tiny Simpsons TV That Plays Real Simpsons Episodes and Switches Channels\" width=\"840\" height=\"473\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/aI-UpdMu3zs?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Where can I buy the Tiny Simpsons TV?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Since the Reddit post blew up and got a lot of coverage <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/2021\/8\/23\/22637549\/diy-simpsons-tv-raspberry-pi-3d-printing\">on the web<\/a>, user <strong>buba447<\/strong> is reportedly going to make a guide so that you can build the tiny Simpsons TV yourself.
