Hello all, I'm one of those cord-cutters whose only internet connection is a mobile hot-spot. When t-mo is open full-throttle (up till 10gb), it can clock up to 30mbps or even higher and everything's beautiful. But when 10gb allotment runs out, the speed goes down to 600kbps and that's when odd behaviors appear. It is not an impossible situation but I'm hoping for some explanations.
Here's my setup: RaspberryPi 3B+ runs squeezlite/jivelite. It has a Allo DigiOne which feeds into external DAC. When it works, the sound is absolutely great and I can't imagine it getting better. Intel NUCi7 runs LMS 7.9.1 and that's all it runs with local music stored in SSD. All devices are on LAN where the local router is hard-wired to a WAP which connects to the hotspot. Odd behavior: 1) with Spotty audio set at Extreme (320kbps), gap between songs is av. 50 seconds. when set at High (160kbps), gap is "normal" anywhere from 1 to 5 seconds. 2) with either setting, if I disrupt the bandwidth by surfing the net for other activities, music stops playing at the end of the current song and does not continue. The Connect device is gone. Only remedy at this point is to restart LMS; I've made a button for that purpose. When LMS comes up, Spotty device appears again, and I activate it to begin the playback. Here's some relevant server log: ===================>>> [19-03-13 14:53:32.0050] Slim::Player::StreamingController::_eventAction (273) b8:27:eb:fd:ab:5a: StatusHeartbeat in PLAYING-TRACKWAIT -> Slim::Player::StreamingController::_CheckSync [19-03-13 14:53:33.0062] Slim::Player::StreamingController::_eventAction (273) b8:27:eb:fd:ab:5a: StatusHeartbeat in PLAYING-TRACKWAIT -> Slim::Player::StreamingController::_CheckSync [19-03-13 14:53:34.0069] Slim::Player::StreamingController::playerStopped (2157) b8:27:eb:fd:ab:5a [19-03-13 14:53:34.0073] Slim::Player::StreamingController::_eventAction (273) b8:27:eb:fd:ab:5a: Stopped in PLAYING-TRACKWAIT -> Slim::Player::StreamingController::_PlayIfReady [19-03-13 14:53:34.0075] Slim::Player::StreamingController::_setPlayingState (2357) new playing state STOPPED [19-03-13 14:53:34.0078] Slim::Player::StreamingController::_eventAction (303) b8:27:eb:fd:ab:5a: Stopped - new state STOPPED-TRACKWAIT [19-03-13 14:53:35.0039] Slim::Player::StreamingController::_eventAction (273) b8:27:eb:fd:ab:5a: StatusHeartbeat in STOPPED-TRACKWAIT -> Slim::Player::StreamingController::_NoOp ==================>>>> bunch of same log entries here [19-03-13 14:58:17.0068] Slim::Player::StreamingController::_eventAction (273) b8:27:eb:fd:ab:5a: StatusHeartbeat in STOPPED-TRACKWAIT -> Slim::Player::StreamingController::_NoOp [19-03-13 14:58:22.0053] Slim::Player::StreamingController::_eventAction (273) b8:27:eb:fd:ab:5a: StatusHeartbeat in STOPPED-TRACKWAIT -> Slim::Player::StreamingController::_NoOp [19-03-13 14:58:26.0068] Slim::Player::StreamingController::_eventAction (273) b8:27:eb:fd:ab:5a: StatusHeartbeat in STOPPED-TRACKWAIT -> Slim::Player::StreamingController::_NoOp 2019-03-13 14:58:27 squeezeboxserver_safe stopped. <<<<<<<<================ this is when I restarted LMS manually 2019-03-13 14:58:27 squeezeboxserver_safe started.
