Re: [SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] Logitech Media Server on Ubuntu 20.04
1) Since Upstart and Systemd are used in Debian/Ubuntu, LMS by default is started before the network is up, which causes issues with thinks like online radio stations, Spotify etc. My /etc/rc.local workaround is fine, but not very nice. A structural solution would be better. Anybody willing and able to come up with a solution?... 2) Full library rescan doesn't work since Ubuntu 18.04, it results in a hanging scan process. Incremental scans works fine, even with an empty database. For both issues several threads can be found on this forum without a proper solution. I totally am not aware of any scan issues related to that Ubuntu version.

Re: [SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] LMS 7.9.3 on MacOS 10.11.6 does not play some ALAC files
Yes for both of those commands. One thing I have noticed: when I try to play one of those ALAC files the server spins up an instance of faad. If I try to play another problem file the server will spin up an additional instance of faad. I got up to four instances of faad running this morning before moving on. Each instance wants to split up the total available CPU% almost evenly and this maxes out the computer's available CPU load making it very slow. The sox instance drops to 0%. 31835 Playing an ALAC file it "likes" will create an faad instance that uses less than 2% available CPU and a sox instance that uses about the same amount. 31836 +---+ |Filename: Screen Shot 2020-10-13 at 8.48.33 AM.png | |Download: http://forums.slimdevices.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=31836| +---+ roryking's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=70758 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=113049 ___ Squeezecenter mailing list Squeezecenter@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezecenter

Or some other solution. As a follow-up: I was worried enough about some of the reports here to pause my planned upgrade of my main server from Ubuntu 18.04.5 to 20.04.1 while I tested a fresh install of Ubuntu (server version) on an IntelNUC I had available. On the IntelNUC machine: 1) after OS install, I installed nfs-common and mounted the music files residing on my main server over NFS and made sure it was working ok. Nothing else was installed. 2) I downloaded LMS (logitechmediaserver_8.0.0~1602486506_amd64.deb) using wget 3) installed with "sudo -i ", but that failed with unresolved dependency for libio-socket-ssl-perl 4) "apt install libio-socket-ssl-perl" also failed because of unresolved dependencies, but "apt --fix-broken install" was recommended. 5) running "apt --fix-broken install" resolved all issues; a handful of other packages were downloaded and installed in addition to libio-socket-ssl-perl, but unfortunately I didn't make a note of them :-( After this LMS started nicely using "systemctl start logitechmediaserver". No problem with start-stop-daemon, it was there - installed as part of the OS-package (package lsb-base). (I suspect alex.h's problems arose from a failed OS update?) I then ran LMS on the IntelNUC for 2-3 days to make sure there were no other sissues, but none appeared. I then upgraded my main server to Ubuntu 20.04.1, and much to my relief the upgrade went fine and LMS worked as before. (My main server is very old, cirka 2007 I believe. I installed Ubuntu 12.04 LTS in 2013 and since I have upgraded to 14.04 -> 16.04 -> 18.04, so it has most likely picked up a lot of entropy in terms of old and unsupported packages etc. OS upgrades don't remove packages that are installed outside the package manager.) If there is any interest in what extra packages were installed when running "apt --fix-broken install", I'd be happy to retrace my steps and massage the IntelNUC with a new fresh install. 2 Touch, 2 Picoreplayer v6.1.0 on RaspBerry 3B LMS 8.0.0 on Ubuntu 20.04.1 on Intel Core2 Duo E4500 @ 2.20GHz, 2GB.

A "proper" solution for systemd might be to re-examine and rewrite the logic of the Debian init scripts into a systemd unit file. In the process addressing/eliminating the quirky squeezeboxserver_safe script. As a hack to try out one could install a modified version of the existing auto-generated service unit, and add a 'network-online' dependency to it. It could look something like: Code: [Unit] SourcePath=/etc/init.d/logitechmediaserver Description=LSB: Startup script for the Logitech Media Server Before=multi-user.target Before=graphical.target After=all.target After=network-online.target Wants=network-online.target [Service] Type=forking Restart=no TimeoutSec=5min IgnoreSIGPIPE=no KillMode=process GuessMainPID=no RemainAfterExit=yes SuccessExitStatus=5 6 ExecStart=/etc/init.d/logitechmediaserver start ExecStop=/etc/init.d/logitechmediaserver stop This is based on the auto-generated file -/run/systemd/generator.late/logitechmediaserver.service-, but I have added the two 'network-online.target' lines with the intention of preventing LMS from starting before the network. The revised unit file should be saved as -/etc/systemd/system/logitechmediaserver.service-, and the system restarted. It works on my Debian system, but I have not tested that it actually solves the network problem that it seeks to address, simply because I don't have the problem. mrw's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=38299 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=112185 ___ Squeezecenter mailing list Squeezecenter@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezecenter

As upstart is not used anymore in Ubuntu in favor of systemd, the effort in solving this should indeed be put into a systemd unit file. As I am not a coder or scripter I was never able to solve it properly myself, so hopefully somebody can come up with something which can be incorporated in the official LMS packages. *Living Room:* HifiBerry DAC+ Pro & piCorePlayer *Attic:* HifiBerry DAC+ RCA & piCorePlayer *Kitchen:* SB Radio *Other rooms:* 4x SB Radio zordaz's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=61726 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=112185 ___ Squeezecenter mailing list Squeezecenter@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezecenter

I also run a custom perl. This is the best way to avoid OS updates from breaking things. Anyway. It looks like there are 2 issues in this thread. 1) Install broken on some systems. 2) LMS starts before the internet is reachable. #2 is a problem we run into on pCP, as network routers are very slow to startup, and pCP is booting in 15-30 seconds. We deal with that by waiting for the time to get set to start LMS. The concern here is there is not a site that is "reachable from everywhere" We use google with pCP, and that fails quite a bit from some parts of the world. So how would we "choose" a common site for a standard install script? As for fixing #1 would there be a reason to not convert everything to normal systemd? piCorePlayer a small player for the Raspberry Pi in RAM.
