It was great then, it was great now. 

I guess you could claim plausible deniability on the Touch being
vintage, however the server is not even close!

Re: [slim] text editor in piCore

The only caveat to WinSCP and a windows based editor.  Even if you use
Notepad++ or another editor that understands Unix Line endings, WinSCP
can do text file Line ending conversions on the fly, and if not
configured properly can leave you with quite a mess.  WinSCP should
automatically detect the linux server and automatically configure line
endings...but make sure to double check

Re: [slim] NAS + Squeezebox + Plex

2022-11-28 Thread yeomanspc

Plex and LMS run on pretty much everything, so it comes down to how much
time you have to build.  I run a QNAP for plex and LMS with 90TB of
‘stuff’.  The QLMS package runs 8.3 fine.  

You suggest you want off-site listening - whatever your NAS, do not
expose ports to web, or you will one day find it all encrypted - use a
private VPN for remote access.  Sorry if that’s obvious but a lot get
caught out by leaving UPNP active.

I probably should have added that if you are already familiar with vi,
it is merely annoying and counter-productive.

Of course, there are some who love it. There was a time when I used
edlin in DOS, so I understand how vi could be seen as a vast
improvement. But it boggles my mind that anyone could prefer it.

All of this is entirely off-topic for the OP's question, but I hope by
now he has settled on WinSCP, as recommended by Jim, or installed nano,
if he's already familiar with that.

Re: [slim] New modified SqueezeAMP batch?

2022-11-28 Thread MrC


If you have an extra, I would be interested in one.  I'd like to have a
modern unit to eventually replace a Touch, should one of my 2 devices
succumb to old age.  I'd like to get a head start coming up to speed on
the requirements for such a unit.

I'm not concerned about the cost.  I'd need simultaneous optical and RCA
out, Ethernet, but don't care about WiFi.  I almost never look at the
display since it lives in my server cabinet with the whole house audio
amps and other equipment.  Any reasonable case would be fine.  I run LMS
on my Mac.

I'm not a hardware guy, and although competent enough to do assembly,
I'd prefer to avoid breaking out in cold sweats trying to do anything
more than snapping parts together and basic wiring.

I've read through this thread, and the others, but still feel uncertain
enough that I need to ask - would this unit meet these needs, and what
would you recommend?

Re: [slim] NAS + Squeezebox + Plex

2022-11-28 Thread Michael Herger

Can someone suggest a build including OS or something pre-built that
would literally serve my 3 purposes: NAS + Squeezebox server + Plex
server.


My personal opinion: assuming you don't have Pis sitting around idle, 
I'd go with a relatively beefy NAS which can run Docker. The latter 
allows you to run many services in a matter which (currently) is well 
supported by many projects. If you go with a relatively mainstream 
product like QNAP or Synology chances are you already have support for 
Plex apps built-in. Otherwise you run it in Docker.


When I bought my NAS Docker was still a bit suspicious to me. It took me 
a while to understand it. But right now I'm running five to six 
containers continuously. And I like the simplicity with which I can 
test-run an application in a container and easily throw everything away 
if I'm not happy with it.


Just my 2c.

(but I still run LMS on a Pi, as it's easier in _my_ case to run off of 
git directly, and to deal with patches applied manually etc.)

Which dongle did you get? It's a good idea (I installed the patch, but
that causes the Radio to occasionally interrupt music play when synched
to the rest of my players), but I want to make sure it's not a dongle

Re: [slim] NAS + Squeezebox + Plex

2022-11-28 Thread d6jg


For many years I have had my music files on a 4 disk QNAP 419P NAS but I
stopped running LMS on it some time ago as it's an Arm processor and
only has 512mb RAM. It couldn't cope with lots of transcoding and the
last Qnap approved version of LMS was 7.7.6. It is however great at
doing its principal job which is file sharing.
So I now have the QNAP which holds all the files and two separate
production machines - one for LMS and one for Plex - that connect over
NFS to the NAS. I have rebuilt the LMS machine a number of times but by
always using the same mount point strategy I have always made existing
playlists work.
I also have numerous "dev" devices, Pi's etc which also connect to the
NAS via NFS when required and a second offsite QNAP which syncs files on
an overnight basis. There is a Pi based LMS at the same site with an NFS
mount to the QNAP so when I visit I can play everything that I have in
my main (home) office.
I have considered Dockers but rejected the idea on the basis that it
meant unnecessary expense on a new more powerful NAS when the one I have
does what I ask it to.

For a non Linux person by far the easiiest method to edit a file is by
using WinSCP. 

WinSCP connects exactly like an ssh client but gives you a graphical
Windows like interface. Find the file you want to edit and right click
on it and do Edit. For those that do this regularly add Notepad++ as the
default Editor.

Nano can be installed. Check "Extensions" from the pCP main page.

I think the vi editor is pre-installed. It's a good editor to know, but
if you have never used it before, it is frustrating and
counter-intuitive. Fortunately, plenty of guides to vi are available
online.

Also, there is a text file viewer -- not an editor -- called less. I
think it is pre-installed on pCP. And it's much more intuitive than vi!

Hello, I suppose you found the answer since your post, but just for the
next readers: the answer is you have to set the volume in the player
application, not on your phone, otherwise it will go back to the
