VS1053 and ESP8266 : sofware solution vs pin 33/34 bridge

Other Hardware Audio
1

Hi all,

For a webradio streaming project, I've used the Adafruit_VS1053 library with the Wemos D1 mini (ESP8266) connected to a VS1053 board (like this one : https://www.banggood.com/VS1053-MP3-Module-Development-Board-On-Board-Recording-Function-p-1244003.htm).

I have used the code found on this page : Streaming Internet Radio | AdaBox 004 | Adafruit Learning System

I first had no sound and I've found the solution with a bridge between pins 33 & 34 on the VS1053 board.

It works perfectly now but I was wondering if there was any 'software' way to avoid this difficult soldering solution ?

There is clue there (LCsoft VS1053 MP3 module - Bajdi electronics) but I am not able to adapt it on the adafruit code.

Any idea ? If it appears not possible is there any other VS1053 board without this issue that can be used ?

Thanks !
