Hello guys,

I am newbie In AVR and microcontroller Field.

I just went to make this POV which its heart is ATtiny2313 and uses the Parallel port of PC to be programmed:
Download MiniPOV2 - Persistance of Vision Toy with Kit

Anyway I built it on a veroborad. I just did not know how to to use WINAVR/AVRDUDE to program the chip so I went to use PonyProg to do so:


When I programmed the chip by ponyprog and used the original codes given by the original designer:

I faced a problem. When I did so my leds ars blinking and seem the work just right but when I shaked the POv to create the letters I could not see any cleard letter.
I do not know the reason but I want to ask you if thats due to the PONYPROG which I used instead of WINAVR/AVRDUDE? My only guess is that mybe I should do something regarding the clock (the clock time is internal) of the circuit somehow? Pnyprog has nothing to adjust the clocks. I am not sure but maybe they adjust something in WINAVR/AVRDUDE (specially regarding clock pulses) which I am not aware of and so do not affect it on ponyprog so I face the said problem?

Thanks for any help.
