Raspberry Pi - A (very) simple GUI for OMXPlayer

I have created a simple GUI for OMXPlayer on Raspberry Pi

It can be downloaded from here:

https://www.dropbox.com/sh/d5bw7h3j33vmu5t/AAARZeUlm4pvHHJwnqUEn4Jqa?dl=0

The only needed file is omxGUI, but I also uploaded the sources (written, of course, in Pascal)

Indy 10.6 / Lazarus 1.2 / OpenSuSE 13.1

Here are the steps that I followed in order to install Indy 10.6 package on Lazarus. I don't know if all of those steps are required, but it just worked that way.


1) Download the Indy package from here:
        http://indy.fulgan.com/ZIP/
Unzip it somewhere where you can use it.

2) In order for the new Indy not to interfere with the old one, completly remove Lazarus (uninstall, delete the old directory - c:\lazarus on Windows or .lazarus on Linux home)

3) Install Lazarus

4) On Linux the package has a bug (I think): it can't correctly locate the subfolders so it will say that some files are missing. To prevent that just go to the \Lib directory and copy here the content of the following subdirectories: Lib\Core, Lib\Systems, Lib\Protocols

5) Compile the package Lib\indylaz.lpk TWICE (don't ask me why)

6) Install the package

7) Add to your projects the path to \Lib directory (Project >Project Options > Paths > Other unit files

8) Enjoy!
