But I > understand one has to work quite hard to create a memory leak in perl! I managed to upgrade LMS to 8.2 today and test the plugin. I can confirm that after 2 hours of testing both 2 grouped players and a single player, all streaming Radio 2 Live from the plugin ==> no mem leak! I saw some 2-3Mb fluctuations, but it generally held steady at the usual 130 or so Mb virt.

I had wondered about it being an LMS issue and testing an upgrade - I think that would be easier for me as I could clone the USB3 Sata disk Im using for the rpi4 to backup, then try latest v8 LMS.

Yeah - I checked grouped players, sync only players and a single player. The problem (rate of leak) is worse with grouped than with single player. For group of 2 picoreplayers it was 25mb per 10mins and for single player it was around 12mb per 10mins ... maybe thats a correlation, not sure .. I checked over a 30min period. I am only playing live radio through plugin atm. vlgindeed's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=70202 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=113045 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce : BBC Sounds Plugin
Firstly - thank you to all those who give of their time to help support us continuing to use this product stack. IÂm new to using this plugin and typically have been using 1 picorePlayer v6.00 with LMS 7.9.3 on rpi4 1Gb, to listen to live Radio 2 successfully - usually for a couple of hours at a time. Plugin version is 2.23.2. Yesterday I used 2 picoreplayers in a group using the group player plugin, again for live radio 2. This time - after 4.5 hours playing, the stream stopped and I was unable to bring material up in a browser - connection refused. Checking the rpi4, squeeze box server process was not running. I checked dmesg and found that the oom_reaper had killed squeezeboxserver pid - around 675mb usage. There was little to go on in the server log but I did not have any log settings above defaults. I then restarted squeezeboxserver and watched memory usage in top whilst I re-listened to radio 2 live via the plugin. Memory footprint increases around 2.5mb per minute - which ties in with the 4.5 hours usage and 675mb max before oom_reaper steps in. I compared with other radio streams using aac and mp3 and memory footprint remains static. Same for streaming local flac and mp3 files. IÂd appreciate any insights/thoughts - this plugin is great, but with the apparent mem leak, scuppered.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] [Announce] Squeezelite-X
Hi - hoping I get some help with latest download from Windows Store. I had been running an old version (2.1.9) and wanted to upgrade. I did so via Windows Store, but Squeezelite-X failed to start. I did some searching on portaudio_x64.dll but could not find much. I tried downloading the manual installer for various versions going back to 2.5.9 (both 32bit and 64 bit), but all fail with similar crash in same portaudio dll (32bit and 64bit). I am running windows 10.0.18362 and LMS 7.9.2 on rpi4. My previous 2.1.9 install was working (all be it very slow to start, which prompted upgrade). Event Viewer shows following crash info: Faulting application name: SqueezeliteX.exe, version: 2.6.19.0, time stamp: 0x5eb59bb1 Faulting module name: portaudio_x64.dll, version: 0.0.0.0, time stamp: 0x6f81f060 Exception code: 0x4015 Fault offset: 0x0002d3e2 Faulting process id: 0xadc Faulting application start time: 0x01d62b6959a7b198 Faulting application path: C:\Program Files\WindowsApps\16237RGregDawson.Squeezelite-X_2.6.19.0_x64__qhedj8x0bjmhg\SqueezeliteX.exe Faulting module path: C:\Program Files\WindowsApps\16237RGregDawson.Squeezelite-X_2.6.19.0_x64__qhedj8x0bjmhg\portaudio_x64.dll Report Id: be40f3d5-9ce5-43d6-9d33-125e9d10074e Faulting package full name: 16237RGregDawson.Squeezelite-X_2.6.19.0_x64__qhedj8x0bjmhg Faulting package-relative application ID: SqueezeliteX Any help appreciated. vlgindeed's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=70202 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=108550 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
