Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] PiCorePlayer - As a LMS server (See how-to here - work in progress)???

2021-08-17 Thread stuarth


Yes, that was the trick. Open the case, pull out the SDCard running
Volumio, and drop in a new card with PcP 8.0.0

Within minutes I had music playing again via Squeezelite. Yes, I can now
see the player in LMS again. Huzzah! So nice having a GUI to configure
Squeezelite settings rather than using ssh commands.

Selected *HiFiBerry Digi+ Pro* from the drop-down list of output
devices and sweet sounds come out the speakers (i2S out into Metrum Onyx
DAC).

Thanks to the authors of this software and also for the help from forum
members : ) Stuart

@THEMICKSA

Pi Hut are pretty good

They have replaced a couple or so rpi 4b for me.

They have even replaced replacements that have failed :rolleyes:

I'm pretty sure I used the correct string in the Output Settings but
managed to copy and paste the wrong one in my msg. For the last
successful effort I was using -front:CARD=E30,DEV=0- as suggested by
@Man in a van.  

All a bit beside the point now as the Pi appears to be dead. After a
good few hours last night of playing, the music just stopped and I've
not been able to boot it at all. On restart I was getting a red light
followed by three maybe four green flashes. I tried reformatting and
re-flashing the card with the PCP OS and now I'm getting eight green
flashes followed by nothing--I gather that's serious. I've asked PiHut
about exchanging the Pi. All being well I'll be able give it another go
then. Thanks for all the support.

Thank you again ronnie, your pointers worked, finger trouble and lack of

found DAC=A96 and that was my DAC it is working great

I have no idea if there is a linux driver as the manual only mentions
Windows and Mac OS (but no driver required for the latter)

So this is what I would try if it were mine. 

Your welcome to try at your own risk :)

Plug it into the a pCP rpi usb 2 socket

Reboot the rpi, go to the Squeezelite Settings select USB as Audio
output, save and follow the instructions.

If you have no output to select that looks like the device, just reboot

Open a Terminal  (user tc, password piCore) and type 


Code:

lsmod



You are looking for a line with usb_snd_audio.

This is an example of an Apple USB headphone plugged into a pi running
pCP



Code:

Sorry folks I was confused with the mass of setups I have been using,
the convertor I had in was only capable of 16/48. I do have another
question and I think the answer is no. I have a personous audiobox 96
that has a reasonable DAC that runs 20/96, however it seems not to work
with standard USB Audio or at least I have not found an option that
works, has anyone attempted to connect this device?

IIRC Daphile does not have an SSH server running unless you are on the
Beta (developers) version. The vanilla install is entirely Web GUI based
and is a wrapper around LMS with some other stuff added e.g. CD ripping
- a bit like Vortexbox.

Well LMS will discover any squeezelite running on the network.

At your own risk disclaimer, as I have no knowledge of Daphile :)


Try this:(I have just run it on my rpi 4b which has a Squeezelite
instance installed)

Start Daphile and play a radio station through it.

While it is playing SSH into Daphile and run


Code:

sudo systemctl stop squeezelite.service 
  


if the music stops, then run 


Code:

sudo systemctl start squeezelite.service 



the music should start playing again

then run 


Code:

sudo systemctl disable squeezelite.service 



on my raspberry pi I get this message


Code:

pi@BusterDesktop:~ $ sudo systemctl disable squeezelite.service
  squeezelite.service is not a native service, redirecting to 
systemd-sysv-install.
  Executing: /lib/systemd/systemd-sysv-install disable squeezelite



I did sudo reboot.

Restart LMS and the Daphile player should be gone

Thats's too complex with my terminal skills,
The second player is obviously the player in Daphile. I must have
installed the original pCP when Daphile was on and was connected to the
network.
I have then saved so pCP looks for it on boot, it searches for up to 40
secs for the network before booting.
I will try new installation, make sure Daphile is off and load pCP 8.
I may be back
