That works. The hardware provides two different endpoints on the USB interface. One is for JTAG and the other endpoint is either virtual serial CDC/ADM (I can't recall which it is, but "serial port") or whatever you want it to be. So if you create ESP32 software to be an endpoint for a mass storage ...

Bizarre problems on Windows that are never reproducible to anyone else (obviously "blink" is a well-traveled road) are often the result of AntiVirus malware. Disabling that as a test and reinstalling IDF (in case THAT was eaten by your A/V) would be my starting point. Something is interfering with y...

They ARE const in c++. This is one of many footguns removed in the improved language. C89 and 99 have a goofy exemption to allow interop with K&R that's one of those rare cases - beyond sizeof()- where a char[N] and a char* aren't REALLY the same type. Literals decay to a const char* even in C. GCC ...

> - Added "-mfix-esp32-psram-cache-issue" as I do not have the rev3 chip Stop that. That flag is for a different chip. ESP32 and ESP32-S3 are NOT THE SAME CHIP. Did you ever actually call psram_init()? Did you verify that any of the hundreds of other projects successfully working on S3 boards work o...

1) Before you build, prototype. Dev boards are faster and cheaper than the fastest and cheapest PCB house.

2) Reading datasheets is essential, as already answered, but also see. https://github.com/atomic14/esp32-s3-pinouts

I can respect that. I've run public forums (including multiple phpbb) and defending them against scum is challenging. FWIW it was my experience that the only difference of turning this knob down is the SIZE of the index. It increases because it adds an index of the article number (and, I think, offs...

close() - and other symbols provided by POSIX or ISO c/c++ may be a special case. Somewhere in the later System V days of ELF, the OS (UNIX originally, later newlib and such) would make open, malloc, write, and so on into weak symbols (multiple definitions can be presents; first one found is used) a...

@ESPSprite, while I agree that phpbb should have been left in previous centuries this actually IS something that you (the royal "you" at ESP, not necessarily you personally) can control. Admin->General->Search(down at the bottom) here is a setting for. "Min characters indexed by search". Change this...

Thank you, that resolves that mystery. We're both likely bound by the actual flash speed. Maybe life is better on a device with QIO flash. If you're at 460k on a "real" UART, you probably can get a doubling of speed just going up to 1Mbps or so. If you're on a CDC/ACM device, that speed doesn't matt...
