Even though you hear it on analogue/rca ?

Long shot - disconnect Ethernet & try WiFi, to rule out very unlikely
ground loop through Ethernet. (I don’t have a Touch, so I don’t know if
it would be possible with a shielded Ethernet cable).

Good idea.

Would a Raspberry Pi3 B+ suit the OP's application ? I believe it has
1GB ram, rather than the 2GB/4GB/8GB of the Pi4. But perhaps easier on
the purse, and if it works well enough...

I don't know why your wi-fi option is not showing, but I think I know
why you are in an endless loop. You may need to connect to your router
via an ethernet cable to be able to proceed.

Here is one user's solution to the problem:

Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] Can't connect with SSH

If you haven't discovered the ssh config file, you could bake the
options into that. Refer to the manpage *man ssh_config*.

Here's a snippet from mine, stored in file *~/.ssh/config*. My devices
are named -blackradio-, -whiteradio-, and -squeezeboxcontro-.


Code:


  # These older SSH servers do not support modern key
  # exchange stuff or modern ciphers.
  Host blackradio* whiteradio* squeezeboxcontro*
  CheckHostIP no
  KexAlgorithms +diffie-hellman-group1-sha1
  Ciphers +aes128-cbc,3des-cbc,aes256-cbc
  



So now I just log in as, e.g., *ssh root@blackradio*

Because the key/ciphers implemented on the Touch are old, and modern ssh
clients won't, by default, use them. But you should be able to "force"
use of the the older methods. I routinely use this on my macOS box:

Code:

ssh -o KexAlgorithms=diffie-hellman-group1-sha1 -o 
Ciphers=aes128-cbc,3des-cbc,aes256-cbc root@myradio

Search the forum for "Vonets". There have been a number of posts
describing one or more such gizmos under this brand that have apparently
been successfully used.

Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] Touch and port 23

2020-07-10 Thread mrw


If the Touch the same as the Radio, then the following would equally
apply.

I guess it's a "mistake" in the firmware which I suppose might be of no
great consequence.

Port 23 is the -telnet- port, and there is no telnet daemon installed on
the Radio that will respond to it:

Code:


  telnet blackradio
  Trying xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx...
  Connected to blackradio.home.
  Escape character is '^]'.
  Connection closed by foreign host.
  



If I log in to my Radio (using ssh) I would see:

Code:


  # tail /var/log/messages
  Jul 10 15:17:01 inetd[947]: can't execute '/usr/sbin/telnetd': No such file 
or directory
  



The offending line is in -/etc/inetd.conf-:

Code:


  telnetstream  tcp nowait  root/usr/sbin/telnetd   telnetd
  


It could be commented out:

Code:


  #telnet   stream  tcp nowait  root/usr/sbin/telnetd   telnetd

There were seven changes that impacted networking set up. I have not
been following the thread, so I don't know which might be a likely
candidate. Here's a list of the changes, should someone wish to review.
The last one looks intriguing, it seems that it might disable ethernet
unless connectivity to mySB.com can also be established.

Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] Analogue/digital VU

2012-05-23 Thread mrw

I've recently been messing with the VUMeter 'Now Playing' view to see if
an accurate meter calibration could be incorporated into it. The answer
appears to be 'Yes', and the attached file, a 'drop in' replacement
VUMeter.lua script, is the result.

It might amuse some. Whether it is worthwhile is another matter. So I
make this post on the small chance that someone other than me might be
interested.

It has been working as intended on the desktop Squeezeplay, and no
adverse side effects have become apparent to me. I don't own a Touch, so
I haven't been able to test it on a real Touch device.

Anyway, for anyone who may be interested in this experiment:

Either:
A) replace (after backing up) the existing VUMeter.lua, (in
share/jive/jive/audio) or
B) create directory userpath/jive/audio and install in there. 

The file should be named 'VUMeter.lua' - the existing 'txt' suffix
should be removed.

Restart.

Option (B) may be preferable, as it can be easily removed. I find that,
with the desktop Squeezeplay,  a script in the userpath hierarchy will
be loaded in preference to the regular script.


A number of calibration points are provided. A swift double tap on the
screen will cycle through them (two taps within 375ms). A single tap
will just cycle through the regular Now Playing screens. A label will
appear at the top of the screen indicating the current calibration, or
no label if the existing (default) settings are in force. 


Use of this script is at your own risk. I can't see any problem with it,
but I can't guarantee that there is no problem. There are other members
of this forum who would have the competence to make that judgement.
