Re: [SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] radio stream fails to play on some players

2019-11-09 Thread RobbH


Looks like the sample rate is likely to be the problem. That's a 32Khz
stream. I don't know if that's always been the case.



LMS (recent) running on Debian X86_64; 5 Squeezelite players (3 in
PiCorePlayer), 3 players connected via Airplay Bridge
1 Squeezebox Radio (upgraded UE Smart Radio) now mostly retired

It may be possible to access Pandora via VPN but I think I have enough
music to listen to via Spotify, Radio Paradise and my own collection
without bothering to find out what Pandora has to offer.[emoji3]

Yeah I'm pretty sure that I entered my LMS credentials, I will double
check though.
Am disappointed having lost Pandora "usably" on mysqueezebox.com only to
not be able to access it on Max2Play.

So you cant use a VPN to access Pandora?  I use mine to watch stuff on

That sums it up nicely.  It was a multi-step process and quite a
head-scratcher to figure out the various layers and interactions.

The one obvious "debug" aid I had was that it was impossible to browse a
volume or sub-tree if LMS had no permission, so it was just a matter of
trial and error to figure out which executables needed permission.  Not
something many will be able to accomplish.

Maybe there needs to be a single "wrapper" program that is called for
the various services LMS is required to accomplish, and the installer
will need to prompt users to enable the various permissions.  Catalina
may have hardened the OS environment out of the box, but it certainly
has made life much more difficult for developers and end-users.

[SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] radio stream fails to play on some players

2019-11-09 Thread RobbH


I sometimes listen to the HD-2 stream from jazz station WBGO in Newark.
Today was the first time I had tried it in several weeks, maybe months.
It played as expected on most of my players, but two of them produced no
sound, even though the progress bar and counter indicated that it was
playing. I first tried the TuneIn url, which I have bookmarked. When
that didn't work, I tried this url, obtained from the station's web
site, with the same results: http://wbgo.streamguys.net/thejazzstream .

I usually have eight players running, all synchronized using the Group
Players plugin. Three players are Airplay devices, using the Airplay
bridge and connected by wi-fi. Three are PiCorePlayer instances: one
running on a Pi 3B and connected by ethernet, two Pi Zero-W's on wi-fi.
All three are running PCP 5, with Squeezelite version v1.9.2-1158-pCP.
One player is a 32-bit netbook running Debian 8 with Squeezelite
v1.9.0-1119, connected by ethernet. The remaining player is Squeezelite
v1.9.0-1119, running on the same 64-bit Linux machine as LMS, also
running Debian 8.

The two players that will not play the WBGO HD-2 stream are the one
running on the LMS server, and the Pi 3B.

The first three times this happened, there were error messages in the
LMS log that appeared to correspond to the attempts to play the stream:
"Slim::Player::TranscodingHelper::checkBin (275)couldn't find binary
for: wmadec"

Later attempts have not produced error messages,

I tried playing the stream on the Squeezelite instance running on the
LMS server, without any other players synchronized to it, but it still
produced no sound, although it appeared to play.

I have also tried running Squeezelite v1.9.0-1119 on another computer
running 64-bit Linux and connected over ethernet. The stream played
correctly on that machine.

I have also rebooted the LMS server with no change. (LMS version: 7.9.2
- 1572699180 @ Sat Nov 2 14:13:52 CET 2019)

Any suggestions as to what I might try next? Or would it be more
appropriate to assume that this is a Squeezelite problem and move it to
the Linux forum?

Incidentally, the same station's main stream at
http://wbgo.streamguys.net/wbgo128 plays correctly on all players.

is running.

But I can not select piCoreLMS on my players ??? It just is not there as
a Library anymore 

When I put in the ip:9000 in my browser then I get
ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED 

I have tried to restart everything Router, NAS, Pi

Thanks. Elegant in its simplicity. I'd love to do this. In fact the
drive with my music on it is already mounted. But I can't connect to
port 9000 on the Wandboard to open the LMS page and change the settings.
Could that be the result of the LMS installation having been messed up?
The version I have installed is logitechmediaserver 7.9.2.arch2-1.

If I understand correctly your music is on the readynas? You don't need
to run the Samba service on your wandboard but only the samba client (on
other Linux distributions also known as cifs-utils, no clue about Arch).
Given that the readynas also runs some form of Linux, you could also use
NFS (Network File System) for sharing out the music to your LMS on
Wandboard: it's a bit more complicated to set up, but it's also more
robust and has less overhead in traffic.

It says in my Max2play I need a subscription to play Pandora? 

The main reason I went back to Max2Play was that in mysqueezebox.com
Pandora will now only play one song at a time before pausing.

Do you have any idea what is going on, is there a workaround?
