Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Setting up a linux squeezebox server - any advice?
I got it installed very easily using an external CD-drive via usb. Overall my fear that vortexbox would be complicated was put to shame. My only difficulties was 1) That the ethernet connection apparently does not work if you use a broken ethernet cable (doh!) 2) The auto-ripper by default rips to FLAC, while I would prefer 320kbps MP3. Its not very well documented how to achieve this, however, it was actually quite easy once you find the ripper config file (/etc/ripit/config). So far I am super happy about the set up. Vortexbox is very cool and easy to use. I love the simple web-interface and the auto-ripper. The downside is that the Aspire Revo is slightly more noisy than I had hoped. I guess I will have to find a closet somewhere to stick it in :).

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] piCoPlayer = Squeezelite on Microcore linux. .An embedded OS in RAM with Squeezelite
Maybe the answer to my last post about locking the volume will address this, but thought I'd go ahead and post some findings. I've spent the afternoon comparing my totally stock SqueezeBox Touch to my new piCorePlayer, using the M2Tech HiFace II USBSPDIF. Both players using ethernet connection playing from the same server. Downstream gear: Rega DAC, Plinius 9200 integrated, KEF R700 speakers, various Nordost cables. To power the piCore I tried two different configurations: 1) Samsung tablet 2 amp power supply directly into the RPi with the HiFace plugged directly into the RPi, and 2) with the tablet power supply running the RPi only, and a separate low noise linear power supply running the HiFace (using a USB power injector). I heard no differences between the two power configurations. I had really high hopes for the piCore+HiFace combination - figured the low-jitter SPDIF adapter would trump the output on the Touch, but I'm pretty disappointed. Using various high-bitrate tracks, the difference in sound quality hit you like a ton of bricks. The PiCore combo sounded relatively flat - reduced soundstage and clarity. Lot less air in the sound, almost like there is a roll-off at the highest frequencies. Not what I would call bad, but when compared to the Touch, just no contest. My wife has better ears then me and when I gave her a blind A/B test she had a pretty visceral no comparison reaction. My goal was to use the RPi as the heart of a 2nd bedroom system, but if I cannot get this sounding better I'll be finding another Touch somewhere. Has anyone else done any critical comparisons of a piCorePlayer relative to other digital transports? Maybe the HiFace is not as good as the various web reviews say? Maybe there is some setting or tweak in piCorePlayer. What else could I be missing? -djm ctownj30's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=62343 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
