ESP32 Boards Manager 3 - Upgrade your Older Code

Whenever I see your video, the first thing I do is to hit on like button

Merry Christmas everyone!

Happy Christmas DroneBot WorkShop

Thanks! I very much like your content

Well now I'm excited. LOL

I like the changes shown here and I especially want to go through all the
ESP NOW stuff.

Thanks for this.

I did see something in there about remotes.

Does that mean that it will be easier to build things like universal remotes to control our TVs and sound systems?

Will it be easier to "read" a remote's codes for buttons and record them?

Just wondering, because when I'm done 2.5 projects I have on the go, I urgently need to design a universal remote to replace the Logitech Harmony remotes with bad pads.

So I'm hoping this new manager will have some better tools to help in that.

Request to you audio take add hindi language add please requests ❤❤🎉

Grateful for multilingual audio tracks

Great to see Bill back on form with a new video. Thanks, Santa.

Always a GREAT video packed with useful and in my case, very timely and very needed information. Happy New Year everyone! Thank You, Bill!

Thank you for the Heads-up for the new ESP32 boards manager 3. I wish you have a wonderful Seasons Holliday and a health and wealth 2025. God Bless you and your family.

I have trouble finding a RC servo library that is compatible with esp32 version 3. Do you have a library you know is compatible?

❤

Good to hear your Dad jokes back up to standard Bill. Happy New Year to you and all your fans.

Very informative, thanks!

Nice see you back, hope you are doing well.

I ran into this problem with your Mecanum wheel robot when I absent mindedly agreed to update the board manager when the IDE opened. I got the code updated so it would compile, but only one of the wheels would turn. I confirmed that everything was working as it should up to a library call, and that's when I aborted the mission and went back to v2.

Very nice, thank you very much.

You read my mind

Just as always: Amazing, informative & on the spot. Thanks a lot!

Board meeting 😂 Witty !

Hmm this didn't pop up in notifications. I just caught it.

Sweet as! All in arduino cc right? Would that be the same case as with esp32 espressif in eclipse?

Great vid Bill. I've been putting off going to V3 as a lot of my projects use timers and I see that this has changed quite a bit. Maybe time to have a read through the Espressif docs and see what I need to do to update.
Hope that you had a great Christmas and all the best for 2025.
Cheers

I did my upgrade on Christmas to 3.0.7. I had tried earlier with the 3-alpha and 3-rc versions along with some of the earlier 3.0.x releases, but they all broken either FPSI or tft-epsi on ESP32-S3s. But 3.0.7 finally worked and seems to be working well.

One of the biggest reasons for me to upgrade was to get 64-bit time_t. With the year 2038 only 13 years away, I was worried that I'd build code that would last more than a decade only to have it die in 2038. This is no longer a problem with the v3 boards manager. Thanks, Espressif

Recently I had some problems that I couldn't compile and install programs to the target which worked properly before.
With this video I could find that the ESP32 ver.3 board manager affects them.
Thank you!

What exactly is the boards manager?
Is it a set of "libraries" that interface between any of the available peripherals on a specific board?
(Like a traffic director... Once you specify the board, you will get directed to the correct interface code for the peripheral on that board?)

Please! NO MORE GermanTranslation at KI!!!! I will see the Video in original-spoken Language! Please! Please! Switch off this nasty Option, Thanx!
