Found out that crossfading is the culprit. With crossfading off, none of
the cut offs happened again.

Interesting, thanks for that.  I didn't realise piCorePlayer had all
that built in!  I might go and take another look...

My music files are on a portable 2TB USB HDD connected to the RPi in the
car, if I have lot of files to sync to it, I can either do it over wifi
(slow) or remove the USB drive and bring it indoors.

All setup of piCorePlayer is done using a web browser, I don't speak a
single word of Linux of whatever flavour! :)

2018-09-15 Thread Michael Herger

I can access the settings page via the direct connection from my Mac if
I add a username and password.  Is setting the username and password the
only way to do this?


No. I knew the request would come up at some point, therefore the 
feature can be disabled using a pref in server.prefs. But I haven't 
exposed that pref to the UI. You'd have to set it manually in 
server.prefs while LMS is down. Relevant commit is this:

Good luck :-)

Wired systems using CAT5 or CAT6 (twisted pair with an RJ45 plug at
each end) cabling are always star topology. Each end device connects to
a hub at the centre of the star and hubs can be daisy-chained together
to form larger networks. This is the normal way to handle private wired
ethernet and does not introduce noticeable delays.

Your problem is that you've declared your Mac as both the RPi's 
gateway and, since its where your client web browser also runs, LMS
thinks that, because the gateway and browser have the same IP, the
browser belongs to somebody else out on the internet.

The simple solution, if your router has more than one Ethernet port
is to transfer the RPi connection to the router and set the router's IP
address as its gateway. Now LMS can see that the gateway and client
browser IPs differ, so won't need a username/password.

If your router has only a single Ethernet socket, buy a 4-port hub
(readily available for under a tenner from Amazon or Ebuyer) and a
short ethernet cable (another couple of quid). Connect the hub to your
router and both Mac and RPi to the hub and set the router's IP address
as the RPi's gateway IP. Job done.

Martin

It's not really clear to me what you're trying to do :(

I have a RPi in my car, OS is piCorePlayer, it runs in access point
mode.

My phone is connected to the RPi's network to control the player with
Squeeze Control.

I can open a web browser on my phone and open the LMS webgui, and get to
LMS/settings without problem and without password.

Thanks both for the answers.

I can access the settings page via the direct connection from my Mac if
I add a username and password.  Is setting the username and password the
only way to do this?  It's not a huge issue, but as the only way I'll be
able to connect is via a cable or WPA2 secured wi-fi (the Pi will be an
access point for an Android based controller), so the username and
password is a bit redundant.  Particularly as the Pi will be off when
the car's parked up!  Ideally I'd like to turn off the security as the
Pi is never going near the Internet - is there a way to do this please?

Many thanks again :)

Re: [SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] Installing on a NAS

2018-09-15 Thread Mercenary


Running LMS on my Synology DS 718+ (with upgraded RAM) and hosting
33.669 titels on there.
I have not had any issue with this setup so far and would not see any
reason to highly recommend it IF you need NAS functionality for other
things. 
If not a NAS might be a bit of a heavy weight solution.
Friends of mine run a couple of pi systems and are happy with it too.




3 * Boom, 1 * Radio, 1 * Touch, 1 SB Classic, 2 SB Duet, Server and
music on Synology DS718+
