Re: [slim] Raspberry Pi - Do I need SqueezeSlave on PC to manage?
The pCP GUI is really just for the initial setup. After that, LMS on pCP should work pretty much the same as LMS did on your laptop. Use the same tools that you have always used. So on your laptop for example, instead of http://localhost:9000 use http://LMS_IP_address:9000 Greg Erskine's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=7403 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=113580 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

[slim] Raspberry Pi - Do I need SqueezeSlave on PC to manage?
Setting up Raspberry Pi 4 with PiCorePlayer. Reading through instruction on PiCore site I saw one way to view Pi in command mode is SqueezeSlave. But I can't seem to find up to date version. Is there another program I should use? The Pi is replacing my laptop which has been running LMS as server.

A very impressive performance, probably the best New Year Song I have listened to. A big thank you to all the developers who invested countless hours of improving the Squeezebox Ecosystem. Maybe 2021 is the right time to start a new hardware project - the BOOM 2?. Based on current Raspberry + Amps / ESP32 implementations, it shouldn't be too difficult to create a Boom 2. However all the HIFI / engineering knowledge of the community will be required to create a similar audio experience of a BOOM...

Re: [slim] Launch a track with cli or http, without path.
Yes you can
Using wget. I created a variable with the request to make it easier to
see the full command.
Code:
REQUEST={"id":1,"method":"slim.request","params":[ "myPlayer",
["playlist","loadtracks","track.titlesearch=Do%20It%20Again"]]}
wget -T 5 -O- --post-data="$REQUEST" --header 'Content-Type:
application/json' http://:9000/jsonrpc.js
Where you see "myPlayer" in the request line, insert the name of your
player.
Enter the ip address of your lms server
Then where you see the track name, you need to use %20 instead of the
space in the name.

Not sure which, but google should help here. I use a hifiberry DAC+ pro, on an rPi3B+, but it's in a small system that is not meant to be particularly good. It does sound great however. Of course you can also have a digi hat.

Re: [slim] Squeezebox Touch to Transporter - sound quality
I agree with @apesbrain. For feeding same DAC, likelihood of differing sound quality is zero. You may or may not like the DAC in the Transporter vs your current DAC, assuming you use the analog out of the Transporter. I use a Transporter, balanced analog out to my pre-amp (so using the Transporter's built in DAC). I'm very fond of the Transporter, and in fact bought an extra one just to have as a backup in case my first one dies. *Home:* VBA2.5 4TB -or- rPi4B-8GB/pCP7.x/4TB>LMS 8.1.x>Transporter, Touch, Boom, Radio (all ethernet) *Cottage:* rPi4B-4GB/pCP7.x/4TB>LMS 8.1.x>Touch>Benchmark DAC I, Boom, Radio w/Battery (Radio WIFI) *Office:* Win10(64)>foobar2000 *The Wild: *rPi3B+/pCP4.0, hifiberry Dac+Pro, 4TB USB (LMS & Squeezelite) *Controllers:* iPhone11 & iPadAir3 (iPeng), CONTROLLER, Material Skin, or SqueezePlay 7.8 on Win10(64) *Files:* -Ripping-: dbpoweramp > FLAC; -Post-rip-: mp3tag, PerfectTunes, TuneFusion; -Streaming:- Spotify garym's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17325 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=113577 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] Squeezebox Touch to Transporter - sound quality
"Sound quality" is an individual experience; only you can be the judge of this. Both are worthy solutions and, under controlled conditions, I doubt you'd be able to tell one from the other. It's been repeatedly demonstrated, however, that "sound" quality is influenced by more than sound waves hitting the eardrum. If you like the look of the Transporter, or it provides you a certain pride of ownership, it may indeed "sound" better to you. If you're asking is the data somehow different as rendered to the DAC via Touch or Transporter, the answer is no.

[slim] Squeezebox Touch to Transporter - sound quality
Currently my Squeezebox Touch feeds via a digital connection into my Arcam SA10 amp which has the built in Sabre 9018 DAC. If I was to replace the Touch with a 2nd hand Transporter would there be a considerable improvement in sound quality? My speakers are Dali Mentor Menuets.
