I know this has been listed in the FAQs, but I would just like to point
out how important it would be for users willing to jump onboard and buy
a wandboard now - that there will be a DIY kit of the Gen 2.


Personally I think DIY is the best option anyway, since it will not
involve too much work on part of the user and should be easier to
accomplish, than setting up a mini factory to build the devices.


So in other words, please give us some sort of security that we will be
able to use our wandboards in the future (as a Gen 2 player).

Yes, the JS DAC Carrier board will be available separately.

The default carrier board that comes with the Wandboard has a value of
less than 10 EURO's. The CPU card is the bulk of the cost. So by buying
a Wandboard now and the JS DAC Carrier board later, you will only be
paying a premium of 10 EURO for the default Carrier board, that you will
not be using once you have the JS DAC Carrier board.

Wouldn't that technically amount to the same thing as plugging in a USB

[SlimDevices: Unix] Shairport on Wandboard CSOS R3

2013-05-03 Thread albertone74

HI,

As I don't intend to clog up the CSOS thread with the following
question, I am starting a new thread here.

After being tempted :) by the user dsdreamer, I have installed shairport
thanks to JackOfAll that moved the shairport rpm package into the repo:


Code:


  sudo yum install shairport
  



This is the output of aplay -l


Code:


   List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices 
  card 0: sgtl5000audio [sgtl5000-audio], device 0: HiFi sgtl5000-0 []
  Subdevices: 1/1
  Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
  card 1: imxspdif [imx-spdif], device 0: IMX SPDIF mxc-spdif-0 []
  Subdevices: 1/1
  Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
  card 2: imxhdmisoc [imx-hdmi-soc], device 0: IMX HDMI TX mxc-hdmi-soc-0 []

  Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
  card 3: Set [C-Media USB Headphone Set], device 0: USB Audio [USB Audio]
  Subdevices: 1/1
  Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
  



so I have edited the options file, /etc/sysconfig/shairport as follows:


Code:


  OPTIONS=-a Shairport -o ao -- -d alsa -o dev=plughw:3,0
  



I have stopped and disabled both Squeezelite and Logitechmediaserver. 

I can't get it to work as whenever I try to pair my iPhone with the
wandboard I get this error message:

Connection Unsuccessful. Make sure Wandboard-0 is turned and in range

Also the output of


Code:


  systemctl status bluetooth.service
  



is:


Code:


  bluetooth.service - Bluetooth service
  Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/bluetooth.service; enabled)
  Active: active (running) since Thu 1970-01-01 01:00:19 BST; 43 years 4 months

I must be missing something here. Where does bluetooth come into it? I
might be ignorant, isn't the way this is supposed to work, is that you
have a PC with iTunes on it somewhere, then from within iTunes you set
the output device to be the shairport instance. So the music is played
over the network, streamed from iTunes to the shairport device. Where do
phones and bluetooth come into this?

Greg, there isn't a starter guide for getting LMS running on the
Wandboard. At the present time, you need to plug a USB drive into the
Wandboard  or access your music libary via network share, nfs (Unix) or
cifs (Windows). Currently, the Web Configuration Interface only has the
ability to enable and start the LMS service. You need to manually edit a
file from a command line, (ssh into the device or using Putty from
Windows), to mount your music share or drive. Chunkywizard has offered
to write a guide, but it is not available yet.

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] LMS on Wandboard with Community Squeeze OS R3 - Looking for starter guide

2013-05-03 Thread Chunkywizard

After you have the share mounted there is really nothing to it. You go
to ipaddress:8080, go to the server tab, and click enable and start.
Then you go to ipaddress:9000 and follow the instructions. You start
by putting in your mysqueezebox details or pressing skip, then you point
at the share you just mounted and then it's done and it's just like the
regular Web GUI. 

The share is another thing. In the future it will be automatic but at
the moment you need to do this manually. If you don't know Linux then
this is pretty tricky but I can help and there's information in the CSOS
thread.

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Announce: Squeezelite - a small headless squeezeplay emulator for linux (alsa only)

2013-05-03 Thread PasTim

I have just started running squeezelite on my Vortexbox with a Meridian
Explorer DAC.  All seems fine, and then it starts stuttering a bit.  It
seems to be random, any quality flac.  As I am listening at this moment
it does not, of course, want to stutter at all.

I have no idea where to start looking for the source of the problem.  On
the Vortexbox the instructions are to include parameters in a
squeezelite file in the sysconfig.  Apart from making it play to my DAC
I have not managed to make the -p parameter do anything that I can see
with TOP (but then I don't really understand the linux priorities).  Or
should I be looking at buffers, or Alsa params or..???

I'm no Linux expert, but I usually manage to make things work
eventually.

@JackOfAll, some text for two of the images I contributed:


Here is a 3-box wireless streaming solution consisting of a Wandboard
running CSOS, connected to a Musical Fidelity V-Link 192 USB-to-SPDIF
converter that drives a Rega DAC over a 75 Ohm coaxial connection.  The
MF V-Link 192 is an asynchronous USB Audio Class 2 device, which I've
found to work reliably at all common sample rates from 192kHz  down to
44.1kHz and handily works around current limitations with the optical
Toslink from the Wandboard. The Rega DAC is known for its unforced,
organic sound quality which suits my musical tastes very well. As long
as I prioritize sound over aesthetic appeal, this system could keep me
satisfied for a long time!

Here is a close-up view of the Wandboard and the Musical Fidelity V-Link
192 showing that I was playing back 88.2kHz sample rate audio at the
time.
