I'm working on a virtual pinball machine and want to have a separate screen to display rules for each game.
I dug my old N416 Kobo out of the box of assorted electronics and realize it's still on v1.0 of the software (haven't been able to upgrade it).
What I want to do is push either a text or image file to the screen via USB. It looks like newer e-readers can install a VNC client that would do the job but not the ancient beast I've got here.
I've found a thread where someone appears to have hacked it but it goes a little over my head. https://gist.github.com/RandomInsano/6a2de40f71c8580b79621f4699d3595e
What I'd like to have is a command that I could send with a variable (the file to display) to update the screen on demand (no more often than once every 30 seconds at most).
The source machine I'm running is on Windows 10. Any help I could get would be greatly appreciated.
