Each new generation of the Raspberry Pi brings improvements over the last, and the Raspberry Pi 5 was no exception. However, along with the great new features and enhanced performance can also come some incompatibility with the way things were done on prior versions of the hardware. One such incompatibility with the Pi 5 was the ability to drive HUB75 compatible RGB Matrices like the older Pi’s could. The new Adafruit Blinka Raspberry Pi5 PioMatter library brings this capability to the Raspberry Pi 5 by way of the PIO peripherals.

The RGB Matrix Panels With Raspberry Pi 5 Learn Guide contains everything you need to get started displaying onto your matrices. There’s pages for overview, RPi 5 setup, wiring, basic test, multiple matrix panels, animated GIF, scrolling text, mirroring the console, and playing MP4 videos.
