set card to sysdefault:CARD=sndrpihifiberry

What is the output of: aplay -l ?

I didn't get sound at first, redid the soldering and now it's fine.

My HiFiBerry DAC arrived today and I waisted no time in connecting it
up.  Issue is that I get no audio output.  What is the recommended way
of setting it up.  I tried scanning for USB devices but it does not
show.  What parameters should I pass or will it just automagically be
found on the Pi ?
Using v1.10 which worked fine under analog out via headphone socket
before I mounted the DAC board.

Thanks,
Bill

Well no luck there. I'm leaning toward the problem with the model A
being network related, for the time being I've replaced it with a
hardwired B while I do some more troubleshooting on it.

OK, just to be certain, you aren't trying to use the Pi with both the
wireless *and* fixed network connections in place at the same time, are
you? You should only use one or the other, not both. Use "sudo
powerdown" to shutdown the Pi, disconnect the fixed network connection
from the Pi, then restart it, wait for the blue light to start flashing
away on the WiFi adaptor and then run your checks. If the blue light
goes out on the adaptor then it looks like the network connection isn't
staying up.

Finally, you can check whether wireless devices can communicate with
each other via the router using the ping command eg, by pinging your
mobile from your Mac. Not sure how you ping on a Mac, but I'm sure a
search will turn up something. Or you could connect your Mac to the
physical network and see if everything works then. I can't tell what the
security setting might be on your router - they tend to use different
terms for the same thing.

I'm off to get some shut-eye now so I'll leave you to it.

I read up about wifi compatibility briefly before ordering so got the
same adaptor: Edimax EW-7811UN. 

The pi definitely has a wireless IP address through looking at the
router; I can see both the wired and wireless ip's. 

The mac is my server and what I am using to access the Pi, and yes it is
wireless...maybe you're onto something! :)

What is this security setting in the router, I tried google but didn't
come up with anything?

I guess I should also ask whether you've got one of the known working

OK... So you can definitely see that the Pi is connected to the router
and has got an IP address by looking at the router?

If yes, normally at this point I would suggest connecting a screen and
keyboard directly to the Pi so that you can test connectivity outbound
onto the network. Eg, you can ping other devices.

But before we consider that, one other question: is the server and/or
the PC/Mac you're using to access the Pi also on the wireless network?
The reason I ask is that sometimes routers have a security setting which
prevents two devices connected by WiFi from seeing each other. They can
only see the fixed network.

Hey Richard,

Thanks for the reply :)

Yeh the IP address changing caught me out at first, but I logged onto my
router and watched the new device pop up so I knew I had the right IP
address. 

The IP address of the Pi is 192.168.0.95 (ethernet) and 192.168.0.96
(wifi), the server is on 192.168.0.5.

With ssh tc@192.168.0.96 I couldn't connect to the Pi - even after the
Pi had just told me that was the wifi IP address.

Thanks,
Ben

I have 3 rpi's running squeezlite my first pi is over a year old too
(All of mine are 512k versions).   There were a couple of networking
bugs in Squeezelite that didn't get worked out until the official
version 1.0 release in February, so before that, the problem could have
been in squeezelite.  But since then I've had a couple of headless
players running without issue.   I run my players on Tinycore based
linux (Same as Steen)

I wish I could help, but I just don't have a problem.   If you can get
logs from the squeezelite client and the Server,  Perhaps that would
help... shed some light.

Firstly, your IP address will change when the Pi connects via wireless.
This is because the Pi's WiFi adaptor has a different MAC address to the
physical connector so your DHCP server will think it's a different
device.

You can find out the new IP address by resetting and saving your
wireless setup using menu option 8, and then look on-screen as it
connects and gets an IP address for wireless.

See then if you can connect to the new IP address. If you can then my
next question would be: what is the IP address of the Pi and what is the
address of your server? The reason for asking is that they may be on
different subnets which is what I've been doing. If they are, you have
to specify the IP address of the server and, as you've probably read
above, there's a bug in setting the IP address.

But take one thing at a time. Try and get a connection via WiFi to your
Pi.

I've had a look at that but it only seems to map to the SSID, the key,
and the network security type (WPA).

What the web article suggests is that there needs to be an additional
parameter scan_ssid=1. Reading between the lines of what you're saying,
you've just taken the code from elsewhere? :) In which case I'm probably
asking the wrong person!

I need to know how to amend the way in which the wpa_supplicant.conf
file is written...

Hi everyone, I'm new to Pi, having purchased one just for picoreplayer!
but I'm having a problem with the wifi...

I downloaded v1.10, installed it to a SD, installed Logitech Server and
had the Pi working perfectly with ethernet connection. I changed the

Then I tried to set the wifi up. I used the 'picoreplayer' menu option
'8' and it seemed to go well. However, once I unplug the ethernet I
can't connect to the Pi via terminal on the imac and logitech server
can't see the player any more. :(

If I plug the ethernet back in, and go back through to the '8 setup
wifi', it says I'm already connected!

Another thing I noticed, is that if I disconnect power, when I reconnect
the wifi has been forgotten.

I guess it would be helpful to post some settings, but might need to be

Actually it is.

I've edited the */usr/local/sbin/config.cfg* file to remove the "_IP"
from the end of SERVER_IP" and done the same in the
*/usr/local/sbin/set_server.sh* file. I've then saved the files back to
the permanent file system using:

SUDO FILETOOL.SH -B

A side benefit is that the server IP now appears in the SqueezeLite
settings menu where it didn't before:


Code:

Change Squeezelite Settings
  
  1)  Change Player name (Current name is: -n piCoreHiFiBerry)
  2)  Change Output setting (Current setting is: -o sysdefault:CARD=ALSA)
  3)  Change ALSA setting (Current setting is: -a 200:4)
  4)  Change MAC adress (Current adress is: )
  5)  Change Max sample rate (Current setting is: )
  
  6)  Change Buffer Size (Current setting is: )
  7)  Change Codec (Current Codec restriction is: )
  8)  Change Server (Current Server is: -s 192.168.x.xxx)
  9)  Change Priority level (Current Priority level is: )
  11) Change Upsample settings (Current Upsample setting is: )
  
  12) Make a backup of your Changes

I'm clutching at straws, but I've got a sneeky feeling that your
problems might be related to the selinux-policy bug that causes package
scriptlets to fail. 'rpm scriptlets are exiting with status 127'
(https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1054350).

Might be worth upgrading selinux-policy

Well I have been working on some REALLY good sounding DSD DAC designs.
These things usually work by putting the two channels on two pins of the
I2S interface (usually SDATA and LRCLK). If the software guys can do
this I could add a separate board that plugs in either to the wandboard
IO connectors or the special connector on the CSP. The only problem is
that it is a separate audio out.

OK, I've spotted the bug in the following file:

/usr/local/etc/init.d/squeezelite_initd

Code:


  case "$1" in
  start)
  echo "Starting Squeezelite"
  start-stop-daemon --start --quiet -b -m -p/var/run/squeezelitehf.pid --exec 
/mnt/mmcblk0p2/tce/squeezelite-armv6hf -- $OUTPUT $N
  AME $ALSA_PARAMS $MAC_ADDRESS $MAX_RATE $BUFFER_SIZE $CODEC *$SERVER* 
$PRIORITY $LOGLEVEL $LOGFILE



The parameter used to invoke the server in the SqueezeLite command
(SERVER) isn't the same as the parameter that has been set in the
config.cfg file (SERVER_IP), so it's not being picked up:

config.cfg

Code:

NAME="-n piCoreHiFiBerry"
  OUTPUT="-o sysdefault:CARD=ALSA"
  ALSA_PARAMS="-a 200:4"
  BUFFER_SIZE=
  CODEC=
  PRIORITY=
  MAX_RATE=
  UPSAMPLE=
  MAC_ADDRESS=
  SERVER_IP=\"-S 192.168.X.XXX\"
  LOGLEVEL=
  LOGFILE=
  


Fairly easy to fix, hopefully?

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] piCoPlayer = Squeezelite on Microcore linux. .An embedded OS in RAM with Squeezelite

2014-01-16 Thread Reeshar

Hi guys

I've been playing with piCorePlayer 1.10 for the first time and it is
very nice!

I do have a couple of questions about the setting-up of parameters, the
first to permit access to a hidden wireless network, the second about
nominating a Squeezebox server.

1). ACCESS TO A HIDDEN WIRELESS NETWORK

To allow piCorePlayer to access a hidden wireless network I believe I
need to be able to set an additional parameter in the
wpa_supplicant.conf file:

scan_ssid=1

(this from
http://databoyz.wordpress.com/tag/how-to-setup-network-and-wpa_supplicant-conf-file-on-raspberry-pi/)

So I need to set up a file like this:


Code:


  network={
  ssid="SSID_Name"
  scan_ssid=1
  #psk="password"
  psk=abcde...
  }



I can't see how to do this in a way that the file is saved across a
reboot and there isn't any option to set this parameter using the
picoreplayer setup command.

Any suggestions on how to make such a change stick?


2). NOMINATING A SQUEEZEBOX SERVER

To connect to a Squeezebox server on a different subnet I need to
nominate the server explicitly.

However, if I set a server IP using the picoreplayer setup command (and
save the settings) the server name doesn't appear in the command shown
by ps:

/MNT/MMCBLK0P2/TCE/SQUEEZELITE-ARMV6HF -O SYSDEFAULT:CARD=ALSA -N
PICOREHIFIBERRY -A 200 4

and SqueezeLite can't connect to the server. This also occurs if I issue
the command with the server address at the end of the line without the
-s option switch.

But if I issue the command manually using -s before the server IP
address, SqueezeLite *does* appear in the command in ps and the player
*is* able to access the server across two subnets:

/MNT/MMCBLK0P2/TCE/SQUEEZELITE-ARMV6HF -Z -O SYSDEFAULT:CARD=ALSA -N
PICOREHIFIBERRY -A 200 4 -S 192.168.1.201

This suggests that piCorePlayer isn't using the -s switch in front of
the server name and so it isn't being picked up by SqueezeLite. If I'm
right, would it be possible to fix this please?

If network traffic is permitted on other programs, then power savings is
not the issue.   If an adapter is in power save, it doesn't respond to
any traffic.

Does LMS show that track time is elapsing on the player?

Probably the only way to really see what is going on is to turn on
squeezelite debugging on and save the logs to a local hard disk (or big
sd card partition).   You also might want to listen on the LMS CLi to
see what the server is sending to the player.

Sure. LOL. But we are not there yet. What we do have is a motley crue of
users with external DAC's USB (UAC1&2, 3 modules in use, generic,
hiface, mytek), HDMI, and SPDIF. Plus the on-board sgtl5000, for
analogue out, which I'm pretty sure no-one is going to be using.
(That, I would chuck over the side of the lifeboat if it wasn't
working!) The aim has to be to keep everyone on-board with their current
hardware working, while moving forward, whatever they are using!

What I have works for me. Maybe I should down tools at the point that my
gear is working and not be concerned how anyone else will fair? ;)

I would like a couple of weeks "grace" when the F20 image is released,
to be able to work with John on moving forward with the dedicated
hardware, getting the clock mux working, not to be trying to do that at
the same time as dealing with a heap of, this is not working, that is
not working

It was *my* choice to push forward with a mainline kernel. It is *my*
responsibility to make sure that it doesn't negatively impact people who
already have a working system! That's how I see it anyway..

I would be very interested in seeing the result of your experience if
you used a LAN cable. For me I sometime see the same using LAN. So don't
think that all of our problems are caused by power saving by the WiFi
adaptor. Somehow squeezelite is the only program that are affected. My
dropbox server (SHH server) and a web-server are all running fine. Also
the "top" command shows that squeezelite is running - but no sound is
produced.

Worth a shot...but if the player is playing, the data stream should keep
it awake. but possibly it it still the lack of local activity.   I
used a ping every 30 seconds and that did not work.   Does this player
do the exact same thing when connected via the ethernet port?

What version kernel and firmware are you running?

latest kernel mainline releases aggressively, on the basis that
everything else works. Hopefully, you'll be able to narrow down the
issue.)

Yes, DSD64 -> native PCM @ 352k8. DSD64 -> DoP PCM @ 176k4.

Thank you for testing!

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Community Squeeze OS F19 Release 1

2014-01-16 Thread lintweaker

I've managed to test F20 with the stock Fedora kernel and prerelease
3.13 together with my mytek DAC and UAC2 compatible DAC.
Here are my findings:

Stock Fedora (3.12.6-300).

- UAC2 compatible DAC, everything works OK. Including highres and DSD
  DoP output
- Mytek with my Mytek driver (packaged by Clive), Everything works OK,
  including highres and DSD DoP output(*)
  
(*) For DoP output to work properly (without interruptions) a had to
remove the ALSA buffer parameters I use for my Marantz DAC DoP output


Prerelease (3.13.0-0.rc8.git1.2.1.cs)

- UAC2 compatible DAC, everything works OK. Including highres and DSD
  DoP output
- Mytek with mytekusb2 driver, hard lockup when trying to play (**)
  
(**) Not sure if the lockup is caused by kernel 3.13rc8 in general or
only applicable for ARM. Needs more investigation

F20 on Wandboard with squeezelite keeps playing happily while a 'yum
update' job is running! This was not possible with the F19 with 3.0.35
kernel.

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] piCoPlayer = Squeezelite on Microcore linux. .An embedded OS in RAM with Squeezelite

2014-01-16 Thread CommanderROR

@piotrus

The alsa settings are parameters for Squeezelite. You can set them in
the PiCorePlayer or Squeezelite options. If you habe no clicks and pops
or distorted sound then you probably don't need to set it. I had to use
it on Squeezeplug 6 for HDMI and also on older PiCorePlayer versions.
I'm currently experimenting with the latest PiCorePlayer and hifiberry
that might not need this setting...

2014-01-16 Thread piotrus

I have my Hifiberry hooked up to a vintage Sony TA-2650 amp with KEF
Chorale speakers and I must say that I'm very impressed with the
quality. The only thing I'm strugglin with is the LMS (on another
raspberrypi) becoming very slow after a few days of use, I need to
reboot every day otherwise it becomes unusable.

I did not have time to compare this new dac to my older dac (ES9018
AckoDac, Paul Hynes regs and Broskie Tube Unbalancer) in my main rigg.
At the moment I listen with balanced driven HD650.

My script is in /etc/rc.d/init.d/ I called it stop.sh, I placed a new
file in /etc/rc.d/rc.local with the following content:
#!/bin/bash
/etc/rc.d/init.d/stop.sh

Both files have to be executable.

Bruno

2014-01-16 Thread CommanderROR

The quality is impressive. I was using HDMI before which already sounds
great, but with the HiFiBerry there is even more clarityin the music and
more dynamic range. I did not try 192k files yet, but uncompressed Flac
music (Wimp HiFi) sounds really good. 
I'm not 100% sure about the alsa settings yet, currently I'm running the
usual - a 80:4 and it seems to be working.
