Besides wifi, I am interested in the built-in short range BT
capability.
Do you know if there are projects out there that use a mobile phone
(with BT) as user identification mean, and then say, open the local wifi
AP, or sync some user directory or preferences local to the Pi?

In short, something where BT would be used for profiling the systems
behaviour.

Completely agree, The WiFi behaves oddly as well, mine dosent see my
access points (Dual band x 2 SSID's, havent worked out why yet) but does
see's SSID of people across the road (in a plastic case) in a metal case
sees none.

You can attach a external aerial but you have to solder on an SMT U.fl
connector (They're really really small !) to do this really.

The cost of the Pi3 is maybe the only reason to get it, I got mine for
the same price as a Pi2 otherwise I wouldn't have bothered TBH

Re: [slim] raspberry pi 3b

2016-03-14 Thread DJanGo

After my RPi3 is delivered i am pretty sure, its too oversized for a
simple Player.

Cause the WIFI Antenna is now on the Board and not sticking outside on a
USB "nice" Cases out of Aluminium arent the best choice if the router is
far away. In fact same case same place rpi2 no prob, rpi 3 no connection
(in the case)

TbH: Its much oversized as a simple Audio player i dont think there is a
market for this right now.
As a Server it might be a better starting point as the Rpi2.

Please dont missunderstood me, but using a oversized Rpi with an
undersized PSU keeping in mind of "runs good if it never will be
stressed out "seems a bit strange to me.
A copyjob and a apt-get upgrade at the same time and hopefully the
system if working again after that - is that kind of russian rulette
that most of the typical "users" never wanna try or solve this without
shouting agains rpi, lms, squeezelite.

Hi Treble,

Yeah I fired up the hotstick and soldered some header pins to the DAC+

These are two different things - I am for example using squeezelite

1) on a Mac / OS X
2) on a pi using Rasplex (http://www.rasplex.com/)
3) sometimes (and hopefully more soon) on a PiCorePlayer

PiCorePlayer topics help me on the Mac / OS X and on Rasplex, but for
PiCorePlayer, more specific approaches are required (configuration via
web interface).

If two are used, I can easily scan both, or just one if I am only
interested in PiCorePlayer.

Cheers,

Rainer

Re: [slim] Windows Users: Run a full library scan following time changes

2016-03-14 Thread Michael Herger

It looks like a New & Changed scan did NOT see any music files as
changed following the time change. But, it did see all of the covers as
having changed and resized and re-cached all of them.


Hmm... did I investigate this before? I'll check again. Thanks!

Some clarification needed:

If you mean e.g. starting all Squeezelite posts with [squeezelite] and
as part of the topic of the question, I think it is a really good
idea. (e.g "[squeezelite] not starting on ...").


If you mean, all question in one thread: I don't like that idea at all
as these huge threads are *horrible* when you search the answer for a
specific question. Huge threads duplicate questions as it is often
nearly impossible to find the answer.


Cheers,

Rainer

Or Max2Play and others. I would rather suggest a 3party plugin Header.
Get all the BBC and UPnP plugins in there and get more overview in the
current 3party software.
