[slim] Squeezebox Classic /LMS 8.x - Audio stops - Strange phenomenon

2022-11-14 Thread exa


Dear crowd,
my more than 15 year old SB3 (Classic) has worked like a charm, until
lately when all of a sudden it developed some problems. A year after
having upgraded to LMS 8.x it started acting up and randomly stops audio
playback (sometimes it plays for 30 mins, sometimes only for 1 min). I
thought it was dying, but here is the strange thing:

- when I synchronize it with an instance of squeezelite on my Mac ->
everything works like a charm

I am really baffled by that prob and would appreciate any hints.

I can rule out networking probs (wired - 1Gbps LAN - client stays online
and is pingable with a latency of 0.8ms max), I have exchanged the
cables as well for good measure
LMS is running on my Synology NAS (and has before) in a docker
(currently 8.4.0)
The problems do not coincide with an LMS upgrade and are not rectified
by it

Could this be a hardware problem ? (power supply ?)
Could it have something to do with the control traffic ? (since it
contiunes playing when synchronized)
Is the box finally dying ? (capacitors ?)
...

any hint is appreciated

Re: [slim] LMS scan and mp3 tags

2022-11-14 Thread Michael Herger

The best solution is always to fix the tags.

You could also narrow down your music folder to just one or two where 
the problem arises, then enable logging for the scanner, and provide the 
scanner.log.zip for analysis.

Wow... It's really nice to see this kind of video after all these years 
- even if it's refering to the SB world as "Vintage" :-D.


Prominently featuring Material Skin, Bridge plugins, iPeng, Orange 
Squeeze, Raspberry Pi - thanks for keeping this ecosystem somewhat relevant!

[slim] Darko Audio's recent video tribute to the Squeezebox (GOAT)

2022-11-14 Thread dsdreamer


*If this is already posted elsewhere, my apologies*

John Darko has a good appreciation for the merits of Squeezeboxes and
how well they hold up against today's popular offerings. 

Not sure if I can get away with posting a link, but I'll try below:

Re: [slim] Does synchronized playback suck or is it just me?

2022-11-14 Thread dmozell


Maybe icecast shouldn't run on the same machine as LMS. I have icecast
on one raspberry picking up sound from my turntable and CD player.
Another raspberry with picore lms picks up the icecast stream and
transports it to several raspberry squeezebox players in sync.
Occassionally I have to restart the players but 95 % of the time it
works great.

[slim] LMS scan and mp3 tags

2022-11-14 Thread dmozell


There is an lms feature which will use folder and file names to guess
artist/album/song when mp3 tag fields are empty. But when a folder
includes files with tags and other files without tags, that feature does
not work. The album will show the songs that have the tags and the other
song files will be ignored by the scan. All will show up if I click on
folders instead of albums. Is there a way around this short of editing
all the tags with missing fields? Thanks.

[slim] Dead Link on Forum Home Page

2022-11-14 Thread stereoptic


I don't know if anyone ever clicks on the "Logitech Squeezebox" text in
the upper left corner of the main forum page (I just did accidently) 
but it is an old dead link!


https://www.logitech.com/en-us/speakers_audio/wireless_music_systems.html

Not a big deal, just an observation!
