Ah, OK, I have always used dpkg and didn't realise that apt could be
used to install a local file...  Hopefully I'll remember when it comes
to 8.4

In case it helps others, upgrading from an older 8.2.1 nightly on arm
Debian buster, I had to install an additional dependency: 
libcrypt-openssl-rsa-perl

What benefit do you think a "hi end" streamer will give you if you're
not going to make any use of the streamer's own software ecosystem ?  

If you say you're committed to continue with LMS, then you won't do any
better than a Pi4 based streamer with a high performing external DAC
(which doesn't have to be expensive, as you know from the Khadas...)

Re: [SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] LMS into DLNA/UPNP end point: Real world experiences

2021-12-24 Thread tw99


I use the uPNP/DLNA bridge with a couple of different endpoints.  It
works pretty well (including artwork display, native player controls and
LMS controls), but it is perhaps slightly flakier than using a native
player. There are a lot of settings to play with which might improve
matters, but any issues are still rare enough that I haven't bothered.  
ReplayGain doesn't work though, if that's important to you.

Does that option apply to Random Mix?  I'd have thought it was for
shuffling within an existing tracklist, where Random Mix is about
creating the tracklist itself.

Thanks for the supported release Michael.  The streaming library
integration makes a huge difference.  

I've just upgraded from an early 8.0 nightly that I'd been running for
months, to the latest 8.0.1 nightly, and the deezer scanning bug
mentioned earlier does seem to be fixed.

Tried letting it play all the way through the first 3 tracks and didn't
see the problem. Not doubting you're seeing it, but maybe it needs
Michael to look at the logs to see if he can suggest something.

I just had a try a couple of times, and can't reproduce it. LMS 8 dated
sometime in May, builtin Random Mix.  Start a "Song" playlist, first
track from my local library starts playing. I then select a Spotify
track as "Play Next". I didn't see the problem, although admittedly I
didn't let the songs play all the way through, but ffwd'd to near the
end.

Re: [SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] LMS on Raspberry Pi4

2020-05-13 Thread tw99


I'm running LMS and some other server applications on a PI4 in a
standard case, just with a simple heatsink on the processor.

pi@helix:~ $ vcgencmd measure_temp
temp=58.0'C

So on that basis I don't think there's an issue.  Remember that the
firmware has had a lot of changes in the last year to improve
temperature control.

Using skipwizard seems to resolve it. I'm using  Chrome on Windows:

Re: [SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] Logitech Media Server 7.9.2 released

I've just installed this on a Raspberry PI (latest debian buster), and
I'm having some problems with it.  The management interface of the
server comes up OK and I can make configuration changes there.

However the player interface doesn't come up, and just hangs at the
"Loading Logitech Media Server" spinner at the URL
http://servername:9000/settings/server/wizard.html.   I think this is
because of the following JS error: 

wizard.html:203 Uncaught ReferenceError: strings is not defined

Many thanks for posting this workaround - this issue had been anchoring
me to an ancient RPi setup because I could never get anything newer to
cope with the USB DAC disappearing/appearing. Changing this option has
resolved it.  I would never have thought about trying it myself...

Thanks for the info, but wouldn't that docker environment be 32bit if
it's running on a 32bit Raspbian kernel ?

Also thanks to Michael and bpa for the replies, I'll give it a try in
