Kindle
A jailbroken Kindle with USBNetwork or KUAL can run Still from a shell script: fetch
image.png, hand it straight to eips (the Kindle's framebuffer tool, which can draw a
PNG directly), sleep for however long the server says, repeat.
#!/bin/sh
URL="https://still.example.com/d/YOUR-TOKEN/image.png"
IMG=/mnt/us/still/image.png
HEADERS=/mnt/us/still/headers.txt
ETAG=""
while true; do
if [ -n "$ETAG" ]; then
STATUS=$(curl -s -o "$IMG" -D "$HEADERS" -w "%{http_code}" -H "If-None-Match: $ETAG" "$URL")
else
STATUS=$(curl -s -o "$IMG" -D "$HEADERS" -w "%{http_code}" "$URL")
fi
if [ "$STATUS" = "200" ]; then
eips -g "$IMG"
ETAG=$(grep -i '^ETag:' "$HEADERS" | sed 's/^[Ee][Tt]ag: *//; s/\r$//')
fi
SLEEP=$(grep -i '^X-Still-Sleep:' "$HEADERS" | sed 's/^[Xx]-[Ss]till-[Ss]leep: *//; s/\r$//')
case "$SLEEP" in
''|*[!0-9]*) SLEEP=60 ;;
esac
sleep "$SLEEP"
done
Replace YOUR-TOKEN with your screen's token from its device URL, put the script
somewhere under /mnt/us, and run it from KUAL or an init script. It never draws on a
304 or a network error, matching the device contract: the
Kindle keeps showing whatever it already had.
