Display drivers get no database handle, so they had no way to reach the artwork Core already scrapes, resizes and caches for its other clients. Add readers.ArtworkSource, the optional readers.ArtworkConsumer interface and readers.MediaArtwork, implemented by pkg/service/artwork on top of the existing media.image handler. Media is addressed by system ID and path because ActiveMedia carries no media ID in process. The source is injected through state.SetArtworkSource during startup and handed to a reader in SetReader, which is the single choke point both the configured and auto-detected connect paths funnel through. SetReader also pushes the currently playing media to a display that connects part way through a session, which otherwise sits on an idle screen until the next media change. Its constructor takes the platform, config and database rather than the service context, so pkg/service can import it without a cycle. media.image reports "media has no image" as a quiet client error and everything else as a plain client error. Both render a coverless scene rather than failing, but the latter is logged so a malformed request from this package is visible instead of silently dropping every cover. Export MediaImageDeliveryInline and MediaImageDeliveryLocalPath so an in-process caller builds a request from the same constants the handler validates against. Wire values are unchanged.
A USB-connected 320x960 panel that shows what is playing. Unlike tty2oled, which renders system logos from downloaded picture packs, this sources the title, system name and cover art from Core's own stored metadata, so it works for any scraped media without shipping per-system artwork. Display only: it declares CapabilityDisplay, never produces a scan and rejects writes. OnMediaChange records the newest state and wakes a worker rather than touching the port, because it runs on the media publish path while state locks are held and a cover upload takes on the order of a second. Renders are guarded by panic recovery: the path decodes PNG, JPEG and WebP from scraped files, and a malformed one would otherwise take the daemon down rather than one display. A panic drops the link so the service reconnects through a fresh handshake instead of continuing against a desynced stream. Detection is narrowed before anything is opened. The board uses the ESP32-S3 native USB peripheral, so it enumerates with Espressif's stock vendor ID and no product string: the handshake is the only positive identification, but the vendor ID rules out the 3D printers and Arduino-class boards that share /dev/ttyACM*. An unreadable vendor still probes, or the display would be undetectable where udevadm is absent. Ports that answer wrongly are remembered for a minute, keyed by the device node's mtime so a replug clears the entry. The retry matters because the display can fail its own probe: its USB peripheral enumerates from the ROM bootloader, so the node exists before the firmware answers. Enabled by default on MiSTer, MiSTeX, Batocera and ReplayOS, where the panel is a first-party accessory; opt-in elsewhere, since detection has to write to a serial port. Add helpers.GetUSBCDCDeviceList for native-USB devices. GetSerialDeviceList matches only tty.usbserial on macOS, which is a USB-to-UART bridge and never this board. Factor SerialDeviceVIDPID out of ignoreSerialDevice, and fold the two /dev walks into one prefix-driven lister. Count scan-capable readers for the "nothing connected" diagnostic, so a display does not silence it for a user who has no way to scan a token. MockSerialPort gains Write and records what was written, so a driver test can assert on the exact bytes sent.
A library organised as one folder per Zaparoo system ID indexed almost nothing unless a launcher happened to declare that exact folder name. Of 154 system folders on a test share, 43 were scannable; Genesis and Gameboy indexed zero media despite holding tens of thousands of files. System IDs are already the names used in the API, in the scraper's custom gamelist bundles and in published metadata packs, so treat a folder named after one as scannable. MiSTer's launchers hand-list these names already; doing it in the launcher cache gives every platform the same behaviour. It belongs on the launcher rather than in path discovery because the folder has to be equally visible to LauncherMatcher, which decides which launcher owns a scanned file. A path discovered but owned by nobody indexes nothing. Only launchers that already scan a root-relative folder are extended. One with no folders matches by other means, such as a Test function or an absolute path, and giving it a folder would widen what it claims rather than adding somewhere to look. A folder another system already scans by name stays with that system, which today affects only msx1 and msx2.

Normalize folder paths before ownership and deduplication checks.
If a launcher declares Genesis/ or ./Genesis, wantsSystemIDFolder does not match Genesis, and declared uses a different raw key. The cache can append Genesis. The media scanner then performs duplicate path-resolution work because helpers.Contains uses direct equality and final deduplication occurs only after resolution.
Use one canonical relative-folder key in declared and wantsSystemIDFolder. Add regression tests for trailing slashes and ./ prefixes.

Propagate a late artwork source to registered readers.
SetArtworkSource only updates s.artworkSource. If a display reader registers before this call, it never receives the source and cannot render cover art. Snapshot current readers.ArtworkConsumer instances under the lock, then call SetArtworkSource after unlock.

Both display drivers could already rotate and neither had a way in. tty2oled's rotation sequence sat behind DefaultRotation, a compile-time false const, so no user could reach it. The zapdisplay firmware has SET rotation and the driver never sent it. Add rotation to DriverConfig, in degrees clockwise rather than as a flip flag, so quarter turns do not need a new field later. Each driver reads it at connect and applies it in its own init sequence: tty2oled where CMDSORG and its settle belong, zapdisplay before the first frame so a rotated panel never shows one the wrong way up and then flips. Core is the authority and the device stores a copy. tty2oled keeps no settings and has to be told every connect; zapdisplay persists in NVS so it comes up right with no host attached. Sending on every connect serves both, and zero is sent rather than skipped so a panel is not left holding a rotation the user has since turned off. Which angles are possible is a property of the panel, so the config accepts 0, 90, 180 and 270 and the driver refuses what it cannot do. Neither current display manages a quarter turn: both have a single landscape layout, and turning one needs a UI built for the other aspect rather than a transform. An impossible angle is logged and the panel left unrotated, so a config mistake does not stop a display connecting. Config only for now, with no settings API surface.

Send CMDROT,0 when rotation is disabled.
When rotationEnabled() returns false, this branch skips CMDROT entirely. The driver cannot actively clear a prior 180-degree state. Always send CMDROT with 0 or 1. Keep CMDSORG and its delay conditional on the enabled state.

Adds a reader driver for the Zaparoo display accessory: a USB-connected
320x960 panel that shows the title, system and cover art of whatever is
playing.
Unlike tty2oled, which renders system logos from downloaded picture packs,
this sources everything from Core's own stored metadata through the existing
media.imagepipeline, so it works for any scraped media without shippingper-system artwork.
Artwork for display readers
Display drivers get no database handle, so there was no way for one to reach
artwork Core already scrapes, resizes and caches.
readers.ArtworkSourceis implemented by a newpkg/service/artworkpackageon top of the
media.imagehandler, and handed to a driver through theoptional
readers.ArtworkConsumerinterface.Readeritself is unchanged:adding a method there would touch all eleven drivers plus the mock, and
ArtworkConsumerfollows the pattern already used for late injection.Injection happens in
State.SetReader, the single choke point both theconfigured and auto-detected connect paths funnel through.
SetReaderalsopushes the currently playing media to a display that connects part way
through a session, which otherwise sat on an idle screen while a game ran.
Media is addressed by system ID and path because
ActiveMediacarries nomedia ID in process.
The driver
Display only:
CapabilityDisplay, never produces a scan, rejects writes.OnMediaChangerecords the newest state and wakes a worker rather thantouching the port. It runs on the media publish path while state locks are
held, and a cover upload takes on the order of a second.
Renders are guarded by panic recovery. The path decodes PNG, JPEG and WebP
from scraped files, and a malformed one would otherwise take the daemon down
rather than one display. A panic drops the link so the service reconnects
through a fresh handshake, rather than carrying on against a stream that may
have a command written and its response unread.
Detection
The board uses the ESP32-S3 native USB peripheral, so it enumerates with
Espressif's stock vendor ID and no product string. The handshake is the only
positive identification, but the vendor ID rules out the 3D printers and
Arduino-class boards that also appear on
/dev/ttyACM*, before anything isopened. A port whose vendor cannot be read is still probed, or the display
would be undetectable where udevadm is absent.
Ports that answer wrongly are remembered for a minute, keyed by the device
node's mtime so a replug clears the entry. The retry window matters because
the display can fail its own probe: its USB peripheral enumerates from the
ROM bootloader, so the node exists before the firmware is answering.
helpers.GetSerialDeviceListmatches onlytty.usbserialon macOS, which isa USB-to-UART bridge and never this board, so native-USB devices get their
own listing.
SerialDeviceVIDPIDis factored out ofignoreSerialDevice,and the two
/devwalks fold into one prefix-driven lister.Defaults
Enabled by default on MiSTer, MiSTeX, Batocera and ReplayOS, where the panel
is a first-party accessory. Opt-in everywhere else, since detection has to
open a serial port and write to it.
This is a behaviour change for existing users on those four platforms: the
driver goes from dormant to probing Espressif serial devices. It is bounded
by the vendor filter and the per-plug probe cache.
Display rotation
Both drivers could already rotate and neither had a way in. tty2oled's
sequence sat behind
DefaultRotation, a compile-timefalseconst, so nouser could reach it; the zapdisplay firmware has
SET rotationthat thedriver never sent.
Degrees rather than a flip flag, so quarter turns do not need a new field
later. Each driver reads it at connect and applies it in its own init
sequence — tty2oled where
CMDSORGand its settle belong, zapdisplay beforethe first frame so a rotated panel never shows one the wrong way up and then
flips.
Core is the authority and the device stores a copy. tty2oled keeps no
settings and has to be told on every connect; zapdisplay persists in NVS so
it comes up right with no host attached. Zero is sent rather than skipped, so
a panel is not left holding a rotation the user has since turned off.
Which angles are possible is a property of the panel, so config accepts 0,
90, 180 and 270 and the driver refuses what it cannot do. Neither current
display manages a quarter turn — both have one landscape layout, and turning
one needs a UI built for the other aspect rather than a transform. An
impossible angle is logged and the panel left unrotated, so a config mistake
does not stop a display connecting.
Config only, no settings API surface.
System ID folders
Unrelated to the display, and separable if you would rather it landed on its
own.
A library organised as one folder per Zaparoo system ID indexed almost
nothing unless a launcher happened to declare that exact folder name. On a
test share, 43 of 154 system folders were scannable; Genesis and Gameboy
indexed zero media despite holding tens of thousands of files. After the
change the same share went from 199,884 to 256,379 indexed media, with
Genesis at 25,407 and Gameboy at 13,492.
System IDs are already the names used in the API, in the scraper's custom
gamelist bundles and in published metadata packs. This treats a folder named
after one as scannable, in the launcher cache so it is equally visible to
LauncherMatcher— a path discovered but owned by no launcher indexesnothing.
Only launchers that already scan a root-relative folder are extended, and a
folder another system already scans by name stays with that system.
Notes for review
pkg/readers/testutils.SerialPortgainsWrite, andMockSerialPortrecords what was written so driver tests can assert on exact bytes.
a display does not silence it for a user who has no way to scan a token.
ignoreSerialDevicelogs a udevadm failure at debug rather than error. Itis now called speculatively across every candidate port, where a node with
no udev record is an ordinary answer.
