Re: [SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] "Pending Restart" plugins not listed on plugins page

2020-06-09 Thread Michael Herger

It looks like as if there -should- be something:


That's some not so perfect JS magic happening on that page: the "please 
resart" message would be shown there at the top. The default skin's JS 
would pick that up to show a popup instead of a message at the top. But 
it seems to not remove all unnecessary elements causing that little gap.

I just did a fresh installation to a brand new Win10 and it works to me
with only one sample rate.

What do you mean with "the plugin still remains disabled"? 

Could you please post your settings and the last executed command?

Running LMS in a docker is not mainstream. You will be hard pushed to
find anyone here who runs one on OMV5 and may be better off posting your
question to their forum as well as contacting the docker author if you
can.

Re Q2. Likely means LMS has no route to the internet, can’t find any DNS
server suggesting that networking may also be the route cause of Q1.

Have you ever run LMS in a more traditional way? If not it may be
sensible to do so to find out how it works before trying a docker
install.

If you would write that in a Mac forum the first thing you will here is:

It makes no sense to clean the cache folders etc. because the Mac has to
build them again, so you will never get really more space, only for very

Likely, yes. The point is you'll have to _manually_ export the XML file

believe the export command can be found in the File menu. Ask your

I'm now the proud owner of a Raspberry Pi 4, with one microSD card
booting to the Raspberry Pi OS (no good reason for this) and one to
piCorePlayer. So far everything seems to work. I think I'm finally
succeeding in using it with my newly acquired AudioPro C5A (via the
UPnP/DLNA bridge--thanks to Philipe), which is what I've been trying to
use as a Boom replacement. And an unexpected bonus: pCP actually
installed LMS 8.0.0, despite what the online documentation had led me to
believe.

The only problems that took trial and error to resolve: figuring out how
to mount my NAS as a source of files for piCorePlayer ("vers=1.0" was a
necessary option); and (my bad) realizing that I had to tell the LMS
"Basic Settings" screen to look at the right folder on the mounted drive
(doh). LMS on the pCP needed two tries to scan the full music folder,
but everything shows up. 

Thanks greatly for your help. Just wait until I decide that for my next
project I want to throw a DAC and touch screen into a new pCP/Raspberry
Pi to end up with a Touch replacement. How could I possibly go wrong?

Hi Marco,

Thanks for the update. I have tried enabling one single output sample
rate for the player but the plugin still remains disabled with the same
error in the log during startup and the player will not play
anything...

Are you sure this is related with the player sample rate because I get
the same error during server startup even when there is no player
connected to the server at all...? so this seems to be independent of
any player settings...

In the meantime I've been running the plugin with the hack described
above and it's been running perfectly fine for me, I haven't encountered
any issues even if the exe test is overridden

Hello and thanks to you all, i'm fine, just being too busy becouse the
COVID emergency, no time left for hobbies. Hope is going to better now.

BTW "Unable to run C-3PO transcoder see server log." as someone of you
have already pointe don't is caused by either Audio/Scan.pm o r the
executable it uses bein g not where C-3PO is looking for it.

I already faced this problem with newer versions of PERL user by some
Linux distros, I'll check it out.

in the meanwhile, the workaround Is to enable ONE and ONLY ONE output
sample rate, this way:

30659

Other messages:

StdIn (es. Qobuz) enabled, will resample at the max allowed sample
rate.
Player is not Squeezelite, assuming is compliant. 

are just warnings, the first is because a 'feature' (to me is a bug,
but...) in transcodingHelper in LMS that prevent 'navigate' the stream
when coming from STDIN, the other is because your client is not
recognized as being Squeezelite-R2, so you have to check -W is enabled
in command line (if using Ralphy version) or whatever else in other
versions (nothing is necessary using Daphile, it already enables R2
mods). 

I'll have a look at the plugin ASAP, please forgive me if it will not be
in hours.

IN C-3PO you have gain, that is linear like the one in squeezelite and
Loudness.


Loudness is not linear, it applies the Isophonic curve:

30657


The rationale is:

1. select the SPL where you 'perceive'  your speakers as 'linear' (i.e.
60phon).
2. apply a gain variation i.e. -20db

the resulting level is not a 'plain' reduction of 20db at all the
frequencies,  but some frequencies are reduced more than other,
resulting in loudness, that is meant to 'preserve' the same perception
(or EQ)  you have when listening at 60db.

In that example, at 60phon 200Hz are at 60db as 1000Hz are, but at
40phon (resulting from the attenuation of 20phon) they are 'louder',
more or less 42db. The opposite for 500Hz, that is a bit 'louder' at
60phon than at 40.

Posing the reference at 60, 40 or 80phon is arbitrary, you could select
any of them, the result will change a little, being the differences form
100 and 80 different from the ones between 60 and 40, but, usually, an
attenuation is resulting in more 'loud' where a positive gain will
result in a flatter line.

SOX has a caveat with loudness: the 'balance' of the two channels it
often changes a bit, so you'll have to compensate using per channel
volume controls.

Loudness is not my 'preferred' way to EQ, the one I prefer is 'shelving
EQ' (Treble and Bass command) that works like the good old' tone
controls' in amplifiers, just remember to always use attenuation.

I.e.

Treble -3 160 results in a moderate boost of bass.

Treble -2 160 Treble -2 630 Treble +2 1 is a very little loudness 

Please note that the +2 is after two consecutive -2, so the resulting
absolute correction at 10.000Hz and over is -2.

Never be able to understand if the gain value is expressed in db or
what. To me is smaller than db, but never measured. 

here some details: http://sox.sourceforge.net/sox.html
about isophonic curves:

Hi sorry to not being responsive in those days,  but too bad I miss time

BTW

the exe file is the same as the executable C-3PO.PL in linux. Is
involved when you select more than one possible output sample rate
depending on input.

Obviously is supposed to work..., if not, my fault. I'll have a look.
