Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Community Squeeze OS R3
Additional results for the wandboard QUAD under F19-A1 20130727. Works with both optical and USB out to an Audio GD NFB-2 DAC. Works with USB out to AktiMate Micro powered speakers. Runs the Logitech media server to drive 3 different squeezeboxes at the same time, in addition to squeezelite/jivelite. Impressive stuff guys.

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] piCoPlayer = Squeezelite on Microcore linux. .An embedded OS in RAM with Squeezelite
Hello and thanks för this very neat and esy and good software. Now i´ve set up my raspberry with picore, downloaded latest image, and i´m using it to play through headphone output and everything works superb except one thing. As i have 2 other Squeezeboxes, i have synchronized the Picoreplayer with one of the Squeezeboxes and played from my spotify app in logitechs box. They started play together but the music is not synced all the time. It sounds that the Picore has a hard time catching up to the Logitech´s player and it goes up and down all the time: sound is synced now but after a couple of seconds it is not and then it is synced again and then not etc... The player is using a wired LAN connection. As i´m a noob in both Linux and PiCore maybe i´ve mised some settings?

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Community Squeeze OS R3
So I ran the optical out from the SWAMP board into my AVR and it works. (Boy have I gotten spoiled by the upsampling to 352 into the DAC I'll be using fro CSP, the AVR sounded terrible in comparison) So it works into the AVR, but not the EMU_0404USB. The optical out from the Touch works fine on both. So it has got to be something in the channel status bits that is different between the two. In the next couple days I'll be working on the FPGA SPDIF receiver, I'll grab the bits from both and post them. John S.

I can't speak to your setup exactly, but I've found that my two Raspberry Pis are generally a little slower than my desktop players (SqueezePlay). I had to go into the Logitech Media Server Settings Player Synchronize Player Audio Delay (ms) and change it to about 75 or 80ms. I still get a constant but subtle shift in timing, almost like one player is moving closer to me, then further away, but I no longer have problems with echoing. I hope that helps you! I don't know if this is a problem with LMS or with Squeezelite but I don't remember the synchronizing issues being as bad when I was using Airfoil. hoffsta's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=60824 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=97803 ___ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix

Good news that it is working, though I thought we had the same values set in the channel status as touch. Let us know what you see. It's either this or the frequency is not accurate/stable enough using the audio pll [also hoping this is not the case] Triode's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=98544 ___ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix

Thank you for that- my scratchiness seems to be gone with the HiFiMeDiy Sabre DAC PiCore 1.0.6. I am only playing 16/44 files but they work much better with these settings. For anyone who wants to know the settings suggested by Henke, here they are: I'm using the picoreplayer, it's whats worked best for me so far. And like I said - playing a locally stored file on the Pi works better than using squeezelite but since I'm using Squeezebox, this is the alternative I'd like to pursue. Anyways - the following settings works best for me. I've added a short explanation of the setting atleast what I can understand of it. I could be very wrong. -a 160::16:1 : Sets buffer size to 160, force 16bit and uses memory mapped files (probably a good thing) -o hw:0,0 : I've seen that instead of using what picoreplayer suggests as output device, this seems to let squeezelite player talk more directly to the DAC. If I use what squeezelite identifies as my DAC, sysdefault:CARD=AudioAsynchr, I cannot play 176.4 files. To list these devices, I use aplay -l in the terminal, since hw:0,0 might be something else on your setup -r 192000 : this seems to be necessary for me to be able to play files with higher bitrates than 96000. It just tells squeezelite what the max rate is. Thus, if you'd want to use these setting you would Login to you Raspberry pi type picoreplayer and then hit enter choose option 5 (I'm using version 1.05 so this might be something different for you) type -a 160::16:1 -o hw:0,0 -r 192000 then hit enter choose option 6 to restart squeezelite With a little luck, you now hear music. If not, or if you do, test a few other settings and see what works best for you.
