Hi there,

I got it work with the latest on my synology DS920+ with correct display
of Chinese. However, when I tried it on Readynas RN314, it appears to
running, but the server can not be found on the network, unless I add a
state directory:

-v :/srv/squeezebox \


This is command I ran, which did not work: 

docker run -it \
--net=host \
--restart=always \
--name lms2 \
-v "/data/Docker/state":"/config":rw \
-v "/data/Music":"/music":ro \
-v "/data/Music/playlist":"/playlist":rw \
-v "/etc/localtime":"/etc/localtime":ro \
-v "/etc/timezone":"/etc/timezone":ro \
-p 9000:9000/tcp \
-p 9090:9090/tcp \
-p 3483:3483/tcp \
-p 3483:3483/udp \
lmscommunity/logitechmediaserver

If I add a local state directory it is fine. It also displays Chinese
correctly.

I use logitech transporter as the player. I don't have other clients. so
far, I can only see the Chinese characters properly displayed on the
transporter screen with "larsks' image" based images. This is what I
meant by "support. 

Right now, there are only two such images available: 

Apnar/ligitech-media-server
joschi/lms

Both of these are based on larsks original image. I am using the same
host - DS920+. It appears to me this is image-dependent. I have tried
about 10 other images including the official one, none would dispaly
Chinese properly on the transporter. 

Thanks

Hi there!

hope all is well!

I have a few questions and thought you might be able to answer. I am
using the transport. 

1. not all docker images are the same. 
I have played around quite a number of different images. The size of
these images varies greatly from image to images. the official LMS
community build is only 200 some Mbs. some others are as big as 900's
mbs. What causes this differences in size?

2. Most of the images do not support asian characters, including the
official LMS build. Some showed scrambled characters, some showed
phonetic form, while very few can display these asian characters
correctly. There are two available images that support asian characters.
They both are built based on the image originally created by larsks.
Larsks original image is no longer available. Can the official images be
built to include these supports?

3. Do you have any idea whether picore player LMS supports asian
characters or not?

Thanks for your support.

I managed to revert back to previous version of the Perl. Unfortunately,
the lms packages were already removed. Does anyone have a copy of the
latest top share? I have DS918+ and believe it is x86-64 version. Thanks
in advance!!

Thanks paul for Jumping in. I will try to buy a pi and experiment. My
ideal intention was consolidate into one MACHINE. 

Can the piCoreplayer run on PC so I can test it out first?

thanks

Thank you, Michael. 

I will try to give the raspberry Pi a try. It would be nice this can be
supported across all platforms in the future.  I used to have a synology
and it has full support for the Chinese Chars, including the community
built version. I have decided to change the NAS. Knowing QNAP supports
LMS, I bought one. Unfortunately, just realized it was not officially
supported any more. There was a community version and it does not
support unicode either. 

So far, i have tried: 

Vortexbox - no support for uni code
Daphile - no unicode support
Windows - perfect support
Mac OSX - perfect support
Synology - perfect support
QNAP - no unicode support
ReadyNAS - no unicode support

PiCoreplayer will be my next attempt. 

Again thanks, Michael

[SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] Can someone confirm the LMS that came with piCoreplayer can display unicode chars

2020-02-14 Thread tigs


Hi there, 

I am deciding to switch to the LMS that comes with the picoreplayer and
rpi. I am currently using the readynas. The version with readynas does
not display unicode chars like Chinese. 

I would like to have someone confirm the picoreplayer can do that before
purchase. 

Thanks

Re: [SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] LogitechMediaServer for Qnap x86_64 with qts 4.2 or higher

2020-01-05 Thread tigs


Thanks, @digimaster for creating this simple package for QNAP users. I
am a new QNAP user, switched from synology. There has never been an
issue with synology NAS running LMS. It has not been easy with QNAP,
which is odd. This package fills that gap. However, I have been unable
to display unicode on my transporter. The LMS runs on a TVS-471-i3 with
16GB of RAM. I had no such problem with LMS running on a Synology NAS.

Here is the thread where users reported exactly the problem and
solution;

https://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?103014-Unicode-chars-not-displayed-on-the-Transporter-with-the-latest-LMS-7-9/page2

I can not by myself to solve this, as it is too techinical. Would you be
able to release a fixed version?

Basically the problem is the Transport displays Pinyin, an English
translation of Chinese character. It is scrambled codes. 

thanks
