Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Which Linux varient has "best" support for SBS (will be running as VM instance)
I currently run Vortexbox upstairs in a VM on ax XP Host ... where will all your music be stored ? If it is currently stored on the windows machine, you will need to connect/mount that folder , or simply copy the library. kappclark's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=29572 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=91429 ___ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix

You are in 16 bit mode. Back up one page and look at patap's answer to me asking the same question. Basically you have to tell the card to run in 24_3 when squeezelite starts. I put this command in my /etc/rc.local and then commented everything out in /etc/default/squeezelite squeezelite -n UpSqueeze -o hw:CARD=DAC,DEV=0 -a 20:4:24_3:1 -d all=debug Then I made a file: nano /root/check_services Pasted this in: /usr/bin/pgrep squeezelite || squeezelite -n UpSqueeze -o hw:CARD=DAC,DEV=0 -a 20:4:24_3:1 -d all=debug Then did a chmod 700 /root/check_services Then do crontab -e Add this */5 * * * * /bin/bash /root/check_services That will check every 5 minutes to see if the squeezelite process is up and if it isn't it will restart it. I've found I can keep my headless player up without rebooting like this because sometimes Squeezelite will die. I think it has to do with the Raspberry Pi and USB issues that haven't been resolved. For example I woke up this morning and top revealed squeezelite had only been up 35 minutes.

The output device needs to be opened at squeezelite startup to identify the max sample rate and report this to the server. If you include a -r option in the squeezelite command line then this step is bypassed and the max rate set via this parameter is used. This will allow squeezelite to startup without the dac being present.

I have followed the instructions and have a working system, thanks to all. However the pause and next track buttons are not working in LMS. I suspect it is a bug in the nightly that I have used. Has anyone tried simply removing and then re-installing a new rpm? Does this require the full process to be followed? Any comments would be welcomed!
