Re: [SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] LMS needs to be restarted to play Radio Paradise FLAC.
This one has me scratching my head a bit... Can you tell me, restart is required for which of these, or all? - FLAC, FLAC Interactive, 320kbps, and all of the flavors (main, rock, mellow...) I am the guy that had issues with power failures. My symptoms were this: Flac Interactive would not play Flac would play, but with no artwork, song info, just a RP logo and banner 320kbps would play fine On my touch, the clock screen saver would be black. This turned out to be the smoking gun, come home, no clock, "we had a power failure!" btw, the latest RP plugin is 3.1.1.

I rebooted pCP (and thus LMS) and everything was fine again. In the situation I'm referring to there was no power failure and *both* FLAC streams didn't play until I restarted LMS. This happened to me 3 times last week, but not always. It looks like I have to do some more testing (different stream types etc) to see what's really happening. radekker's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=63557 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=116161 ___ Squeezecenter mailing list Squeezecenter@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezecenter

I have only LMS running on the Pi, no player so Squeezelite is disabled on Tweaks page. I'm using 2 payers, a Squeezebox Touch and the network player in my Hegel amplifier (via UPnP/DLNA bridge plugin). Both players didn't play the FLAC streams. radekker's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=63557 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=116161 ___ Squeezecenter mailing list Squeezecenter@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezecenter

No hard drive or USB drive connected to the Pi, only a network share to the NAS which works fine with all file types. The issue happened to me a few times last week, before that everything worked fine for months. I will test different RP stream types and save the pCP and LMS boot logs. Please tell me how I can add "waiting for network". radekker's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=63557 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=116161 ___ Squeezecenter mailing list Squeezecenter@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezecenter

"network waiting" :- under Wifi Settings 37565 Or try these; A hard reset, with no player being used, pull the power plug of the LMS raspberry pi at the wall socket, wait a minute, and then power on. Check that the LMS still has the same IP Address Wipe the SD card, download a fresh image of pCP and install a new LMS, reconfigure the server. This may change the IP Address ronnie +---+ |Filename: network.png | |Download: http://forums.slimdevices.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=37565| +---+ Man in a van's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=43627 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=116161 ___ Squeezecenter mailing list Squeezecenter@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezecenter

Thanks for the clarification. I don't have an answer for you, maybe Ronnie does, he's a wizard :) But, as a test, since the regular flac streams are affected, why not create favorites to play the streams directly (from the link I gave you). This will at least tell you if it's related to the plugin, or RP's interface to the plugin (if that is different) I do realize how frustrating "occasionally for no reason" issues can be...:) Jim PS - as a bonus, since you like RP, check out "Jukebox Radio 2" out of Toronto, Ont. Similar mix (I like it better), no commercials, no talk, FLAC. You can stream it directly, but I use Paul Webster's "Radio Now Playing" plugin that adds the song info and album art to the FLAC streams. When I say that I like it better, its allot more like what RP used to be before they migrated to being heavy in allot of newer and world artists (I don't dislike, just prefer the older).
